Packing Heat 007: Reap the Rewards
| Download | Duration: 00:28:59
I figured I’d post this a few days early for those of you who get some time off for New Year’s Eve/Day! We’re all itching to instill some new good habits in ourselves when January first rolls around.
Last episode’s assignment
I decided that my official objective for 2008 is to become a full-time fiction writer. In the service of this objective, I think these three goals will be useful:1. Give up freelance graphic design
2. Get my word count up
3. Speak at a con
Reward yourself!
I’m going to assume you don’t need to put on any weight and you’re not made of money! I talk about rewards from free to medium to gigantic, and discuss how to keep your rewards in proportion to your goals.Be sure sign up for my newsletter! I’m really writing that randomly-generated story we talked about in episode #5 and I'm publishing it as a monthly serial.
Next episode’s assignment:
Set a task for yourself and give yourself a reward.Have an awesome new year!
1. I think you would be a valuable addition to any con. I encourage you to speak if you get the opportunity.
2. I signed up for the newsletter
3. I set up my blog space. Actually, I reopened a blog space that I created a long time ago but left dormant. Time to get back into it
REWARDS:
Another good discussion. For me, a reward would be playing my Wii for purely selfish reasons. I cannot play until I hit my wordcount goal. AND if I go over and go crazy and do another 3k day, this doesn't mean I can slack for the next two days.
