How to create content rhythm?

Feeling awkward about your writing style? Do you have moments of creative genius but when you go to write – nada?

You know it’s in you but you just can’t seem to get it out!!

You’re not alone! It’s a common theme I come across when I first meet with clients – and the answer is relatively easy and only takes 10 minutes a day.

Like any craft, practice is what makes us an expert, and writing about yourself and your business as a daily practice will ignite and grow your confidence and creative skill. The only catch is taking the time to invest in developing your writing style.

Creating a daily writing practice also helps to expand your word usage and develops new neural pathways inside your brain. You get to decide the new pathways you want to build based on the new skills you require, and that includes creating amazing content. The neural pathways you build stay active through repetition and are ready when you need them. They also make old limiting or self sabotage pathways obsolete or weaker.

The easy way to keep your creative business spark alive – and it only takes 10mins a day.

Here are 6 great tips to get your creative rhythm moving;

Keep a small writing journal handy and jot down all great content ideas as they flow. They often happen when we are not thinking about them and can be triggered by our everyday environment. There is a creative momentum that is generated within you when you acknowledge and appreciate these ideas as they unfold.
Create a writing practice: cut out inspiring words or pictures from newspapers or magazines and glue them in your journal. One word can easily be expanded into 3 paragraphs. Three paragraphs is content! It’s enough to create connection.
Take one word that relates to a topic about your business and write 3 paragraphs. It does not need to be published and it will only take 10 minutes. By the end of the week you will have your blogging mojo moving.
Create an alter ego to help you along the way. You can base it on a character you already know and love, your ideal customer or enhance an aspect of yourself that’s a crowd-pleaser.
Write a sentence a day for 10 days. By the end of the challenge you will be keen to keep going. Choose an easy theme to write around like ‘dogs’. Have fun with your writing and let your personality shine through. By selecting a subject that you love you will also ignite your inner passion. This is a great way of opening a doorway into your passion place and creative vortex – the place where your content flows seamlessly. You can use these doorways in the future as a quick way to connect to your passion place before start to write about your business and watch how creating content becomes a blissful joy.
Once a year pop along to the local writer’s festival and do a day course with an industry expert. It will have nothing to do with business but you will learn a lot about writing and get inspired. I do this once a year at the Byron Bay Writers Festival. This year I was lucky to have a session with magazine feature writer David Lesser, and I walked away floating on creative air.
