Developing Will Power by Blogging More

Each day after I meditate and do my daily tarot reading I hand write for fifteen minutes. Pen to paper, words in ink. Haven’t missed a day since October 28, 2022. What do I write about? Anything and everything.

Sometimes I write about the occult, magic, or daily life. Or maybe something I meditated on earlier. Sometimes I just start writing about nothing in particular. I’ve learned it really doesn’t matter if I know what I want to write about. Something always shows up and flows onto the page.

Now that I am well into my daily writing practice I want to add another practice. Regular blog posts! Frankly, I don’t know how this is going to play out. I have had quite a lot of struggles writing consistently for my blogs over the years. Even so I am hopeful this time will be different.

What makes me hopeful?

• My daily routine is more and more oriented filled with my druid practices. The more I embrace my interests and passions, filling my life with them daily, the more I find things to write about.
• I have successfully developed a daily writing practice already. New habits are easier to develop when they are small steps from established habits.
• Will development is a major aspect of my training. Regular publishing to the blog will be a great Will development practice.
• Letting go of expectations. While I have no problem of the idea of making money with my blog I have no idea what that will look like at this point. The expectation of making money, or even having anyone read what I write, has been enough to stop my writing until recently.

What if I just write to think out loud about what is on my mind and I enjoy the process? I have decided that will be enough. Though it will be a fabulous bonus if others can benefit from my writing.

No doubt I am forgetting other reasons to be optimistic. That’s okay if I don’t recall them in this article. I am also not looking for perfection anymore. Not even a word count. Writing and posting regularly is my only goal. The next steps will reveal themselves in time.
