Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
i - can't find your inspiration? needing to focus? use essential oils! dab some on your paper, or even directly into the ink! peppermint is fantastic for calming the mind and helping to concentrate! rosemary is another great example of enhancing cognitive performance.
and for those techy witches scolding me for even suggesting essential oils on computers, no worries! place a drop or two on your inner wrist!
ii - mediate next to your wip! this is an amazing way to connect further with your characters and the world inside!
iii - light some candles! scented or unscented are fine. after all, it's the color that matters! yellow can help specifically with increasing activity, while brown promotes concentration.
iv - use crystals! i use crystals daily and they give me a lot of energy! use alexandrite for that little spark of inspiration!
v - tea! before, during, or even after writing, drinking tea has always aided me. i use a mixture of lavender and peppermint to boost my mood, spark creativity, and it's incredible for your immune system!
vi - make your own pen/enchant your pen
i suppose making your own pen is a bit far-fetched, right? so, perhaps you can find a feather that calls to you. doesn't sound appealing? enchant the pen you favor and let the pen do the thinking for you.
here's an amazing motivational quote that my grandma told me today
"don't half cock it, go full cock"
her mind is a horrifying yet beautiful thing
Don't feel disheartened... see how far you've come.
Take a deep breath and resume your journey again..
If you ever get the urge or thought to kill yourself don't
Why?
Well someone has to remind your enemies you are alive to piss them off
Nothing is going to piss off the person you hate/hates you mutually more than you being alive
And I bet that person wants you dead so...
Live to spite them out live them
Your life is like a story and it ends with you, so if you want a great story with a happy ending don't cut your life short, and live it to the fullest...
