Started the day with another speaking gig. I spoke to the lovely people at REWRITE London, a nonprofit that runs creative writing courses for black women and women of color. I did an introduction to Scrivener and covered the “greatest hits.” You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x69YyKA8DHA&feature=youtu.be. And also check out REWRITE—they’re doing some cool things in the community.
I spent the rest of the day finally getting back on the horse. Cleaned out my email, dusted off my planner and set my goals for the coming week, and studied up on some marketing.
Did my sales for August 2020 and ran into some minor issues with my database that I spent some time scoping and fixing. Not a huge deal, but it did derail the rest of my day.
All the public speaking this weekend caught up with me at about 5PM, and I suddenly found myself asleep on the couch while watching YouTube videos…it’s all good. I needed the rest and look forward to picking up.
I’m not hard on myself when it comes to goals. Ultimately, I try to be consistent but that doesn’t always happen. At the end of the day, I did a LOT today that moved the needle forward, and that’s what matters. Arbitrary goals are just that—arbitrary goals.
This coming week I plan to pick back up again and try to have a normal week, as well as Amnesia Mode.
Stay safe out there, everyone.
