In my ideal world, I’d wake up around 8am, eat breakfast and have a matcha latte, and write for 1-2 hours. In this state, the writing just flows out.

60–95%, I don’t write under these ideal conditions. Life is asking me to take care of other things. Instead, I keep my eyes peeled for openings throughout the day.

There is something powerful about simply showing up. It’s not a strategy that screams commitment. It’s a strategy that creates balance and consistency.
