LET’S TALK creativity + goal setting ✨ . . As creatives, we can often get labeled as ‘easily distracted’ or ‘disorganized.’ And maybe that’s the case for some people, but sometimes it’s just about life getting in the way & not knowing how to prioritize your goals when you have limited time . . 🎧 I was recently on a podcast and the host was asking how I keep motivated with my goals when I don’t feel like writing, or when procrastination gets in the way — and so I thought I’d share a little about this topic on here for you all . . For me personally — and maybe I’m just a bit of a nerd — I am ALL ABOUT dem spreadsheets. 📊 Honestly, I CANNOT get projects finished without them! . . I make them for everything — media pitching, goals, book publicity progress etc...but recently I created a progress tracking sheet to help me finish my novel (which I just restarted in late 2019, after leaving it in the lonely depths of my Google Drive for 3 years) AND it’s my new fave thing . . As part of this goal-tracking sheet, I list — ✅ the date ✅ my mood ✅ what chapters I’m working on ✅ where I’m working from (for example, am I at a local cafe or sitting in a particular area of my house?), and how many words I’ve written ✅and my word count p/ day and week . . And let me tell you — this process has worked so well for me! In just 2 months, I managed to write around 50K words with only a few spare hours/week! Plus, it gives me lots of insightful data about when/where I do my best writing . . 🤗 What helps you with staying accountable and on track with your goals? . . . . #writinggoals #writingtips #authorlife #procrastinationtoaction #goalsetting #organisation #creativeproblems #hustle #2020goalsetting #spreadsheetlife #coffsharbour #brisbaneauthor #pinkpowersuit #bardot

It’s enough to make you laugh and then cry. Honestly... it’s 2020...time to unfollow all the toxic accounts that tell you/make you feel you’re not enough... and it’s time to start re- learning that YOU ARE ENOUGH. #ducklipsarenotcute #fuckthefake #youareenough #pornculture . #Repost @reneechopping with @get_repost ・・・ Pretty big difference between natural beauty and today's hyper-sexualised version of it.

Do you dream of sharing your story...but the thought terrifies you? . . To be honest, before my first book came out, I was nervous as f**k . . It may come as a surprise to some, but even though I felt so strongly about sharing my story, in many ways it was still terrifying . . 🙇‍♀️ What will my family think? 🙇‍♀️ Do I have a right to talk about things like this? 🙇‍♀️ Is my story really that interesting? . . If you’d told me years ago that one day I’d share my story around the world, I would have run away screaming! . . But as I’ve since learned, speaking out about my past and sharing my story (both in person, and through my books) has been one of the most powerful and fulfilling things I could have ever done. . . ☝️ But that doesn’t mean it’s easy to do...Not then, and not now. . . ✨ I simply choose to keep moving forward DESPITE the fear. . . Do you feel the same way? Excited at the thought of sharing your story...yet terrified at the same time? . . If that's you, I want to give you some encouragement. . . ❤️ Because whether you’re a CEO or entrepreneur...a speaker...or an ambitious woman doing amazing things in your community to make a difference...you have a story that is worth sharing with the world. . . 💪🏼 SO: I want you to take a moment to look yourself in the mirror and repeat the following: (yeah okay, I know it feels weird, but give it a go!). . . 👏🏻“I am going to step up and CLAIM my space in the world as a storyteller” 👏🏻“Right now I feel scared, but I am going to take small steps and keep moving forward” 👏🏻 “I CLAIM my right to embrace my dream of changing and inspiring lives” ❇️ NOW IS THE TIME! ❇️ . If you're ready to start moving forward toward your dream of impacting lives through your story, and you'd like support with getting focused, finding your WHY, structuring your book, and getting the first 10 chapters done... Let’s chat! (PM me or hit the link in my bio). . . BUT HURRY - ONLY 4 SPACES LEFT FOR 2020!!! . . . . #authorsofinstagram #aspiringauthor #writingtips #writingcommunity #mindset #2020writinggoals #2020goals #getitgirl #bossbabe #bosslady #motivationalspeaker #entrepreneur #mompreneur #hustle #pushthroughthefear
