Excuses for not Writing

It seems to be that I can find so many excuses for not writing:-

  • Housework – ironing, washing, vacuuming, dusting, tidying, cleaning bathrooms, watering plants.
  • Family Needs – ferrying, homework, finding things, mending things.
  • Garden – weeding, planting, tidying.
  • Paperwork – insurance, banking, letters.
  • Catching up with friends, coffee with neighbours.
  • The internet – Facebook, blogging, surfing.
  • My body – headache, not feeling well, not in the mood.
  • Shopping.
  • Sleeping.

The list could go on and on. Maybe I need to see if I can write a similar list for excuses for writing. Mmm….that feels more difficult.

Perhaps I need to work on self belief….
