Books Music Write

Procrastination is the thief of time.

What am I waiting for? Inpsirations? They hardly come by these days. Why can't I stop dragging my feet and get started on writing?

Don't make excuses. There is no such thing as a writer's block. I either write or I am simply lazy.

I love my sleep. A power nap gives me more energy to deal with the tasks of the day but when I oversleep, the long sleep would spin cobwebs in the head which keeps me groggy all day. As the saying goes, 'If you want your dreams to come true, don't oversleep.' Don't let the sloth monster get to me!

Read a book, for goodness sake! Not some Facebook updates or gossip news which though entertaining, aren't exactly helpful in nourishing my mind.

Stop wandering off to those online shops and please unsubscribe from their newsletters. I can only wear that many pairs of trousers and shoes. And it's not as if I have dates everyday. No, fetching the little one from the kindergarten doesn't count. For it is only 5 minutes walk which doesn't exactly call for dressing up. It's their business when the mommies like to flaunt their fashion sense. Some feel good about wearing the latest trend everyday but it is not for me. I am way past that. Comfort and minimalism work best for me these days.

Do listen to music again. New music please, since I am at it. I have literally forgotten the intense pleasure and joy good songs can bring me. Some songs are capable of stirring up such emotions in me that I have goosebumps all over and I would even cry. I don't even know most of the songs on radio these days. Okay, I am a music snob and am a hater of commercialized songs written solely for the mass appeal but that's not the point. Our brains crave music. Why and when I stopped listening to music is beyond me. I better feed my soul asap before it dries up like a well.

Off to buy some new songs! Ha Ha!
