Some people are very, very good at managing their schedules. Some people — aren’t. I fall into the latter category and if its taught me anything at all it’s that I need to refine goals down into actions.

If I am not staring at a list of things, concrete things, that need to be done my mind will wander off and start working on just about anything. It’s one of the reasons that I write, it helps me take all the mental detritus and give it form and substances. It helps me transform goals into actions. It’s as much therapy as it is sage advice.

Thank about it. How much of your writing is therapy?
