I read somewhere years ago that it takes 21 days to form a new habit. So today is the first day of that journey. I intend to write for an hour every night for 21 days. It doesn’t matter how much or little I write as long as I sit at the computer and write.

I might even go as far as setting an alarm. The alarm will go off at the nominated time and I will have to stop whatever I’m doing and turn to my writing. Another alarm will go off an hour later allowing me to stop writing and return to something else if that’s my wish.

These are drastic measures, I know, but at the end of 21 days I’m meant to have formed a new habit and this habit isn’t a bad one. I challenge you to do the same thing if you are not writing every day.
