Your writing space must be clean and tidy. What do I really mean by this? You actually are going to need both your inner space and your outer space. Your inner space controls your outer space and if you do not take good care of your inner space, it will be difficult for you to write genuinely.
Your inner space consists of your thoughts, your emotions, your feelings, how you process information in your mind, how you respond to situations, and how you control your inner space.
Your outer space which is your working environment should also be neat and tidy. It is where you have your writing tools such as your computer, desk, pen and paper, and other writing materials.
My Inner space
Whenever I make up my mind that I am going to write and share with you like I am doing now, It is my responsibility to take charge of my environment which is my inner space. As a married woman who works, writing is not the only thing that I do. I cook, I clean, I go to work, I also do house chores and do my responsibilities as a wife, daughter, mother, friend, employee, employer, and many other roles that are unknown to you.
This means that I need to be time-conscious and considerate of others around me.
I need to intentionally activate peace inside of me by removing anything that may interfere with my peace of mind such as negative thinking and negative moods.
As a Christian and child of God, I maintain peace in my heart with the word of God. I deliberately source scriptures that I can activate when I feel like a situation is trying to steal my peace of mind.
Let the peace of Christ keep you in tune with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness
Colossians 3:15 MSG
Find what gives you peace of mind, and also know what sustains your peace of mind because you cannot be on and off. Your mental state has to be stable, you need to develop how to control your atmosphere and maintain peace at all times with yourself and with everyone around you. It is this peace of mind that will help you to think positively, write positively, and impact people positively.
