Creating a Ritual to Get Your Writing Juices Flowing

  Creating a Ritual to Get Your  Writing Juices Flowing I get it, some days it's hard to commit to the grind of writing. So I am creating this post to help you create a ritual around your writing time. This ritual will help with creating consistency in your writing, and make the process more enjoyable.  πŸ’ πŸ’ πŸ’  1. Clean up the area you plan to write in. This helps to quiet your mind and help you focus. 2. Set up your area. I don't have an office but if you do, that awesome too. I use the kitchen counter. I grab my laptop or I use my phone with my nostalgic typewriter keyboard. 3. Grab your drink of choice . I use the quiet hours in the evening to write, so I like hot cider or tea.  4. Light a candle or incense. This relaxes and helps to center my nerves.  5. Say a Gratitude Affirmation such as: "Thank you God/Universe for giving me inspiration on my writing project this evening, I am now ready to write." Let me know if you use these little things in your writin...

For those feeling a little less loved this holiday season



You're not alone!! Even though your journey may feel lonely at times. Believe me I've been there. And for whatever reason you have that has brought you to a place of solitude, there are ways to cope.

A part of me did not want to write this message because it shows that I too, do feel loneliness and regret towards the family I grew up in. Wishing things were different. But as the "blacksheep/Spawn of Satan", I have to keep up appearances that my life is great now(can you feel how great it isπŸ˜‰?). And for the most part, it is. Plus i'm not one who likes to dwell heavily on the past. You as a reader may feel the same way.

So how do we cope with these feelings?

I am no expert or psycho analyst. But here are some tips I use to get me through tough times.

  1. Take the mini spawn of Satan aka your puppy out for a walk.(JK!!! All dogs are wonderful and I love them, but its funny to write down. He's is more like an Angel with devilish tendencies.) Or if its just you, even better because then you can explore for longer bits of time.
  2. Exercise!! Hell nah, you might be thinking. But it really does help. Plus I get a lot of great inspiration flowing through me during that time. 
  3. Listening to upbuilding music keeps me on a positive frequency. I use accuradio as my go to app. They have every genre you might need.
  4. Keep busy!! If your bored you may tend to think more, which could be a problem. Start a hobby or new project. 
  5. Do things for the ones who are in your life, it doesn't need to be family! Showing appreciation will help you feel more fulfilled. This will in turn keep you feeling full of love. Plus you never know who else might be going through the same thing.
  6. Journaling/Blogging!! If this isn't an obvious one that I use, well now you knowπŸ˜‹πŸ‘. It really helps you express yourself so its not all bottled up inside.
Sorry for all the "reallys", but these are tips guys.. that I literally swear by. It isn't easy being gangsta, but remembering why your here helps too. We all have a journey, mine is to not care what others think of me. Because in order for me to grow, I can't stand in someone else's shadow, nor believe in hypocrisy. So whatever the reason maybe that is getting you down, stay strong my fellow mates. 

Caffeine cheers!!

Tips for creating a vision board for 2018

Tips for creating a vision board for 2018 Well, we are now into the new year of 2018. I am super excited about this year and the goals I plan to crush this year!! I have been thinking long and hard about creating a vision board. So I decided I would create it with you and share my tips as I go 😁! Plus it's a great way to send out to the universe what you want to create in your life.  First, let's get our pictures sorted away so it is easy to lay it all out..... Best to turn on some upbeat music to get you in the groove!! I got the magazines around the house to start using. Cause let's be honest there is a one time adventure of looking at them and then they hide away forever.  Ok so you got everything from your magazines cut out, but maybe you have a few pics you need but there isn't any pics in the mags you got. Not to worry we can do some image searches on google and print those bad boys out.  Now its almost there, but let us add a ...

Why its ok to quit a project/fail.

I've been meaning to write this post for a while. But life has been getting in the way. Esp when you decide to do a water fast and a juice fast lol. And quite frankly I just didn't make time to write it.πŸ˜‚ Not because I don't think its important but because its ok to procrastinate at times.  My whole life seems to be a series of rules that someone made up to keep me or you from just being your own damn self. I clearly love to defy these rules. For an instance as soon as I find a love in some type of hobby, I end up feeling compelled to put a time schedule on it(why do I do that). And make it more complicated than what it should be. Then I am like f@#k this time frame. But where did these rules come from? Is it just me creating these rules for myself? (maybe you can relate?) Or maybe it's the media that creates these rules of how perfect and successful I should be. I want to be successful but it can really zap the joy out of things. This especially can happen...
