Something Went Wrong…

It’s unbelievable today is Friday, everything I did yesterday “Wednesday” was supposed to be done today “Thursday” This week has been dramatic for me. Somehow I  mixed up the days and got it all f… ing wrong.

How did I discover? I was writing a post and struggling to schedule for publishing, then I realized my mistake…ouch…I checked my calenders on the laptop, iPad and everything I could lay my hands on and I’m trying to figure out what went amiss, like the way it happens in the movies where you wake up on another planet or in the future.

Obviously, I haven’t been using the calendar nor paying attention; I have been applying dates without knowing which day it is.

Has this ever happened to anyone? Because it really got me worried. I’m trying to figure out what took place at each time of the week…

Things I Find Interesting

Here are the things I find interesting or call it ‘cool’…

-A man showing courtesy to a woman.

-Helping an elderly person with their grocery bag or hand luggage.

-Letting a child know when he’s wrong even if you need to spank him.

-Giving to the less privileged.

-Women demonstrating respect to their husbands regardless of their status.

-Reading and not only writing.

-Saying ‘thank you’

-Blogging my heart out when I have the urge.

-Composing poems for loved ones and making them feel special.

Healthy Lifestyle of a Writer

Writing is interesting, captivating, and for one full of so many ideas, you want to reach out to the world to express yourself, encourage people to read your stories. It’s exciting but to be honest, you end up drained. We writers go as far as neglecting our writing pad for weeks, months, not to mention bloggers with excellent ideas also get to sense the pressure.

Writers are human too, life gets in the way, which usually emanate from family responsibilities, official duties, health disorder, even relationships you need to take cover from, name it!

Whether you are a blogger, journalist, student, copywriter, whoever you are, good health determines your productivity. The head needs to be straight; focus and discipline are key points in the world of a writer. 

Healthy living encompasses the following and not restricted to this:

  • Arise and shine

Waking up early gives you enough time to make your bed, meditate, plan your day; It freshens the brain with lots of content for your article shaping gracefully.

  • Exercise

Trust me this helps. I exercise nearly every day, still trying to keep up, making it a hundred percent though… haha, It supports you mentally. Ward off stressful activities so as not to get burnt out because that might be a minus on you. You can stay fit by dancing, it’s my favorite and keeps me excited.

  • Eat Well

Do you write without having breakfast? You’ve got to stop because you are overstretching your limits; you end up getting exhausted, not even knowing what happened to your body metabolism.

  • Spend time with yourself

Aside from reading and writing, the weekly activities get your hands full, sometimes it stretches you beyond the limit. This is where you step back and relax, adjust yourself in tune, sleep for hours if you have to, take out time to hang out with friends, encourage other bloggers, you never know when you need theirs.

Remember, always keep track of your daily routine. Living a healthy lifestyle can make you a successful writer.

Missing My Heart

Weaving golden baskets tirelessly

Life interlacing ribbons of crop

Body craving for release

My heart groaning to go back home

Pinnacles of thoughts tiptoeing

Searching for settlement

Love tickling in my heart.

I didn’t get much sleep last night, I was on the phone almost all night with my husband gossiping about everything and making plans for our forthcoming trips. I’m away from home at the moment on a working trip, nevertheless, I’m glad I have the opportunity of writing, although my posting time on WordPress blog has been a little bit disrupted due to work schedule.

My work trip is for about two months, which means I have three weeks left, I miss my husband deeply even though I get to go home some weekends and back to work. It hasn’t been easy working far away from home…..

Intriguing

Perfection

Captivating

When I write, I usually have this intriguing smile on my face I usually don’t know why that happens but I seem to enjoy it. I love to pour my heart out most times, but I find it difficult editing my own blog posts, hence, I’ve realized once in a while I just need to do so because I like Perfection, even though I’m not there yet. There are some certain distractions so captivating that I just find it difficult to write down my thoughts.

The biggest distractions are…..

Movies….work stress….reading…Swagbucks…Social media

YES….they are my issues yet some of them are useful in helping me with thought sharing. Take for instance movies; it’s my favorite hobby, it inspires, relaxes, as a result, distracts me from timely writing.

I need to make money outside my blog, I got bills to pay, so work stress interferes a lot and gives me hard time visiting WordPress but I’m doing all I can to keep it checked.

Reading takes time and after I’m done reading books or other blog posts, I would be dead tired to write which I find distracting sometimes but nevertheless, I get to learn from other blogger’s posts consequently making friends through WordPress.

Yayyyy Swagbucks…I’m a survey freak and through Swagbucks, I’ve been able to earn lots of gift cards and bought so many things for myself just by doing surveys, trust me it takes a lot of time so you know what I mean.

Finally, social media….twitter, facebook, Pinterest, Instagram; time killers and distracting, on the other hand, this tools are the perfect combination for my blog.

However, amidst all my distractions I’m glad that I still find time to write.

So what are your distractions from writing blog posts?
