Saying No!

Good question but the answer depends on what it is I am doing at the time. Saying “no” is sporadic and it doesn’t happen often. I am a goal-oriented person so I do not procrastinate. I usually take the bull by the horns and get things done.

However, last week was a different story altogether. Call it spring fever but I’ve been taking a very lazy attitude towards getting things done. The only thing that has been a regular is the “Daily Prompt.” Otherwise, writing has been put on the backburner. I received my revised manuscript from the publisher and instead of looking it up, it is still sitting on my desk! My mind doesn’t want to cooperate but it gets that way sometimes. Some days I have so many ideas and at other times I draw blanks. This is one of those times. I hope it changes because all I want to do right now is to sit out back and just listen to the birds chirping and the bees buzzing around! Spring fever at its best? Probably.

Coming back to your question, I do say “no” to things that would interfere with my goals but the good thing is, I know when to get off that “pot” and start moving again. It is a very temporary thing.

  2. Your honesty about the ebb and flow of creativity is so refreshing! Even the most brilliant minds need moments of stillness, and embracing spring’s charm is a beautiful way to recharge. That manuscript will call to you when the time is right, and when it does, your words will flow effortlessly. Until then, enjoy the birdsong and let inspiration bloom naturally! 🌿✨📖🌹❤️
