How To Write Every Day (Even If You Don't Feel Like It)

Consistency is the hidden weapon of every great author. But, let's be honest, inspiration might be difficult to come by on certain days. Whether it's exhaustion, self-doubt, or distractions, sticking to a regular writing schedule can seem hard. So, how do you keep going when you're not feeling like it?

1. Create a low-stakes goal.

You do not need to write a masterpiece every day. Begin small—commit to only 100 words or 10 minutes of writing. Often, the hardest thing is getting started, but once you do, the words begin to flow.

2. Create a Writing Ritual.

Find a habit that tells your brain it's time to write. It could be making coffee, listening to instrumental music, or writing in the same location every day. Consistency builds.

3. Remove friction

Remove any obstructions that are impeding your progress. If you spend too much time staring at a blank page, try using writing prompts, AI-powered brainstorming, or organized templates to help you.

4. Use accountability tools.

Writing alone may be isolating. Find a community, set deadlines, or utilize an AI-powered writing helper to help you move forward.
