Dare To Share

For one of my nursing classes I'm reading a book called Dare to share. It'd actually a book about presenting. It seems to have a lot of psychological components in it.

For example. The first couple chapters involved naming and drawing your inner critic, reciting a creativity mantra, and setting time regularly for an artists date.

One part also discussed the benefits of free writing. In free writing you respond to a question in under two minutes. The book claimed that this is the best way to improve writing ability.

It did make me think. I enjoy writing and even journaling. I don't do it regularly because I usually think i need to write a novel. Writing a novel takes time.

Maybe instead I should think of writing or journaling more as a series of small two minute thoughts. Especially since I have a smart phone that would be able to facilitate the writing fairly easily.

  1. I have the same problem. I am willing to give it a try along with you, however, I hope we do not lose the cute stories about Andrew.
