VOLUME, NOT PERFECTION

For two weeks, I have been procrastinating in writing my manuscript.

I waited for external cues to tell me that I need to write now.

I waited for that demand to come from elsewhere to tell me that I need to start now.

I waited for the internal eureka to say that I am ready to write it.

Of course, two weeks passed and I don't have anything to show.

I should have at least 20-25 pages of material by now, or more. 

I could have enjoyed that momentum, I tell others to ride on and be carried forward.

I could be on my way to the goal of being published! 

Just as I am learning that there is no reason to wait for anyone or anything. 

Setting aside that sacred time to write is a must. 

Writers write as farmers farm and dancers dance.

There is no excuse that is great enough not to write. 

So now,  I write, will write and will continue to write until this is done. 

And write some more!
