I’ve been writing a weekly blog post for the past year without skipping a single week.

Today, I’m experimenting with imposing structure and taking breaks.  So, there won’t be a formal post today.

Would you like to try this out with me?

Pick something that you can feasibly set aside for a week.  Maybe it’s something you’ve been putting off for ages but still looms large in your mind each day.  Or, maybe it’s something you do dutifully every week, but you could really use a break.

Decide to set it aside for this week.  Promise yourself that you won’t work on it– or think about it– this week.

Give yourself a bit of a break, with a promise to return to the task the following week.

As for me, I’m eager to try this out.  Yes, it’s a break, but I think it’s even more than that.  I’d better stop now or I’ll end up writing a post in spite of myself.

I will let you guys know how it goes in next week’s post!
