How To Write A Book With No Writing Time!

Marie Forleo writes:

Do you ever dream of writing a book? Maybe yours is half-done and you can’t seem to finish it. Or perhaps you’ve already written your first book, and it’s time to pen the next.

When you’re busy running a business, it can feel near impossible to find the time to get your book done.

Even worse is the guilt and pressure you feel knowing that a finished book means an instant boost to your credibility and the ability to serve a lot more people in your market.

Excellent practical thoughts from Jon Swanson on change in the new year…

300 words a day

There is still time to make this statement: “I’ve done this every Monday in 2013.”

All you have to do is one of these:

Tell your child/children you are grateful they are alive.
Ask God for wisdom for the decisions you have to make this week.
Drink a large glass of water.
Read Psalm 19.
Write an encouraging email to a friend.
On a scrap of paper, write one thing you want to implement from a sermon you heard on Sunday. Tape it to your monitor.
Look at the sunrise. Or sunset.
Read one chapter from the book that is on the top of your reading pile.
Look in the mirror and say, “I glad that God made you.”
Eat 100 calories less than you otherwise would.
Hand $5 to someone that you don’t own money to.
Unsubscribe from an enewsletter that isn’t helping you as much…

12 Rules to Live By

Craig Ballantyne writes:

The one thing I admire about people who have strong nutrition beliefs is their dogmatic behavior.

For example, a vegetarian, under no circumstances, will ever eat meat. There is no, “well, everyone else is having a burger, so just this once, I will too.”

That’s not how it works.

Not when a vegetarian has a strong personal philosophy that they never, ever, ever eat meat.

And that strong personal philosophy guides them to guilt-free behavior that is congruent with their goals.

I’ve also taught my fat loss clients to develop their own personal philosophy – essentially a set of rules that dictate decisions, and I’ve also created my own rules that determine how I live my life so that I reduce guilt, stress, and wasted emotional energy.

Now the purpose of this email is not to say that my personal philosophies are wrong or right.

Instead, they are simply here to encourage you to adopt your own rules for the sake of living a better, more productive stress free life. You may have your own rules in your head, but I encourage you to put them in writing. And you can adopt a set of rules for every aspect of your life, from health to financial to family and business.

American Minute for January 3rd

Frederick the Great of Prussia called these ten days “the most brilliant in the world’s history.”

After winning the Battle of Trenton, Christmas night, George Washington’s small force met General Cornwallis‘ 8,000 man British army.

The night before the battle, Washington left his campfires burning and silently marched his army around the back of the British camp at Princeton, New Jersey.

At daybreak, JANUARY 3, 1777, Washington attacked, capturing three regiments of British troops. Enthusiasm swept America. Yale President Ezra Stiles stated in an Election Address before the Governor and General Assembly of Connecticut:

“In our lowest and most dangerous state, in 1776 and 1777, we sustained ourselves against the British Army of 60.000 troops, commanded by…the ablest generals Britain could procure throughout Europe, with a naval force of 22,000 seamen in above 80 men-of-war.

Who but a Washington, inspired by Heaven, could have conceived the surprise move upon the enemy at Princeton-or that Christmas eve when Washington and his army crossed the Delaware?”

Ezra Stiles continued:

“The United States are under peculiar obligations to become a holy people unto the Lord our God.”
