Danielle LynnParticipantWRITING! Love it.
Would you mind showing me your blog? Or what you write?  I’d love to see 🙂
Well, I figured out what mattered to me by stepping back. Â I was too close to what I was doing and trying TOO HARD to figure out what the heck I wanted to do. Â In other words, I was getting in my own way.
Once I relaxed and opened myself up to being more receptive, what truly mattered to me started to become crystal clear.
I can tell you, one of the things I’ve had to learn to let go of is C-O-N-T-R-O-L! Once I did that, it made my life easier in a lot of ways.
Danielle LynnParticipantI think sometimes people get so caught up in finding or exploring their purpose they forget to live in the now.
I know – I’m often guilty of that!
I find the more I stay open and receptive, a clear path always guides me to where I’m supposed to go.  And then I can spend more time enjoying the process. 🙂
Danielle LynnParticipantI have all that I need for I am whole
Danielle LynnParticipantAbsolutely 🙂 I love blogging too – but I think copy deserves its own section.
I just realized I could probably bring this up in the ‘suggestion area’
Danielle LynnParticipant@Nat  I find that beautiful.  It’s wonderful you have a pool of inspiration to draw from!  Ironically, I was dealing with a  block myself the other day.  So instead of fighting the energy I went with it and ended up creating this post http://theclearcopywriter.com/copywriting/what-to-do-when-you-dont-feel-like-writing/  When i re-read it I can practically feel the resistance in the writing slowly letting up to acceptance and purpose.  It was an interesting experience!  What is your blog? I’d love to take a look at what you write about.
@Sheila  Very aptly put 🙂Danielle LynnParticipantThat’s very profound.  I fully believe no action, event or person is ‘self contained.’  Meaning everything that happens is part of a bigger, beautiful picture.  We’re just too close to it right now to see the whole tapestry.
What I like about your sentence, is that since everyone matters and everyone has their own part to play, there’s no room for jealousy or drama or a sense of someone taking from you. Â We each have what we’re meant to have, and playing the part we’re meant to play. Â We’re perfect for the specific role we’re playing.
Danielle LynnParticipantPaula, I subscribe to this belief. Â In fact, once you love what you do, the word “work” loses its conventional meaning!
I love to help and uplift people.  If that’s too general, then I love to talk with people and help them expand and improve their lives in some way or another.  I’m something of a people person. 🙂
I’ve put a lot of thought into how that applies to what I do (work-wise.)  I feel blessed and fortunate to have the chance to work with so many amazing individuals and help them with their businesses.
What about you Paula? Â What’s something you love like crazy.
Danielle LynnParticipant@ Jacki Yes, I’m a copywriter and brand consultant 🙂   I think it’s fantastic you study copy to help you with your blogging.  When I started learning copy, it really helped me tighten up my other writing as well.
Great idea about the ‘free writing’ when you sit in front of your computer. Â I find I have to use that exercise a LOT!
@ Midge That was beautifully put. Â I’m glad you have decided to share your writings with the world, I’ll bet you have a nice audience enjoying what you write!
@ Ken  Using your writing power to bring good into the world – I love it.  The fact that you’re passionate about it makes me think this must be a true calling for you as well.
Great stuff guys, it’s really inspiring to hear what motivates others to write.  There were times when I first started that I was scared to write.  It felt like I was baring my soul to the universe… and what if the universe didn’t like it?But after a while having a positive driving inspiration helped me push past the fear.  My hope is if someone is reading this who struggles with writing anxiety, they’ll find a reason that resonates with them – and start filling up a blank page!
Keep ’em coming 🙂
Danielle LynnParticipantBeautiful stuff!
I love Lorena McKennitt
Here’s one of my favorites. Â Great for drawing/painting to.
Danielle LynnParticipantFor me, it was just small things – eating a bit less sugar each day, taking the time to walk or jog for 15 minutes – and loving myself as I am at this moment. Â (And every moment!)
I was able to drop about 30 pounds over the span of a year just doing those things. Â I’m still traveling the road to health, but it’s a happy route to be on.
April 5, 2013 at 2:08 pm in reply to: What time of day do you like to write? When are you most productive? #31244Danielle LynnParticipantWhenever the mood strikes me! Â I certainly enjoy light and sunshine when I write, so I’m probably more of a morning/early afternoon writer myself.
