When your income depends on you writing, being blocked to the point of zero output is deadly to your income.

Combine that with the fact that writers block is really all in the mind, and it gets even more frustrating.

After 7 years of successful growth in my business, I feel stuck… and stuck good at that!

A combination of burnout, summer time, and frustration with one area of my business and it has resulted in this.

Plus, the economy is in the toilet and people are buying less. I don’t sell magic pills that claim to make you millions overnight, but those who are selling the magical solutions are making a killing right now.

Personally, I couldn’t sleep at night selling that crap… but it appears many others don’t have the same values that I do.

So how do I (did I) get out of this?

I wrote.

I wrote when I had inspiration.

When I had a stupid idea.

When I had a brilliant idea.

I wrote when I didn’t feel like it.

And when I did.

I had to shake it through massive action.

I tried on a computer.

I tried pen to paper.

At night.

And in the morning.

Finally it started to come back and flow like it should. But it wasn’t easy.

My point to you is…

…when your life and income depend on it…

find a way to do what you know needs to be done.

It really is that simple to fix. Don’t get me wrong: it may not be easy at all, but you just have to find a way through it. And MASSIVE ACTION is the best and only way I know of to keep moving forward.

So get busy… the path is there… find it and follow it… doing what you need to do along the way.

And if you get blocked on what to write… write about being blocked. Write about being po’d about being clocked. Write about anything and eventually it will come back to you.
