Listen "Why I failed my past Writing Challenges"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I discuss why I failed to complete ambitious writing challenges in the past and how I've learned from those experiences. I talk about setting unrealistic goals that tried to do too much at once, which led to burnout. Now I'm focusing on just one writing project or goal at a time so I can give it my full attention. I share the specific 50 word story challenge I'm currently working on and how the "Law of 100" principle is helping me improve through consistent practice. I also encourage listeners to provide feedback on how these episodes can support them in their own writing journeys.
