Hi! Welcome back for Day 36! Or Day 5, if we really want to make it confusing 🙂

I hope you’re excited for today. It’s a free write day!

Today I want to challenge you to write whatever comes to mind.

If you have some questions floating around – write them down. Answer them for yourself, or leave them for another time.

Challenge yourself to write one full page today. If your notebook is small, like mine, maybe try to get 3 (or the equivalent of one full sheet of paper).

Stream of consciousness writing. Whatever comes to mind. Whatever thoughts are in your head, write them. They don’t have to make sense, they don’t have to be cohesive thoughts. You’re not writing an essay.

You’re practicing emptying your mind. Getting your thoughts out on paper and giving them a place to exist outside of your head. Like clearing your garbage disposal. Just, anything you can get out, put it in your journal. Keep going until you’ve got at least one full sheet.

There is no maximum amount you can write. If you want to pick up your journal throughout the day and write whatever stream of consciousness you’ve got going on, do it. See how it feels. Try it on for size.

See you tomorrow! 🙂
