Do you think you have been more p...Congratulations!<br />Do you think you have been more productive this week because of the reading detox? I can't wait to know what was your no-reading experience like(and prepare myself for mine).<br /><br />I've really enjoyed your description of your researching-writing process. You are so right. When working creatively you cannot always measure success with word count. Art works its magic in mysterious ways! Your comment on your writing process has made think on mine. Although the start and the end of my creative tasks are actually a piece of writing, if I see the first pages, the first draft as RESEARCH and not actually WRITING I will feel more free, less judging and, sure, more creative. <br /><br />I totally understand your question 'Should I be rewarded for doing my job?<br />This is actually the first week that I manage to return to my creative writing. Until now I've been so busy at work that I had left that part of me seriously abandoned. Some of my writing tasks are part of my job. I have asked myself the same question. I wasn't sure why I should be rewarded for doing what I was supposed to do anyway and was getting paid for. My answer is YES. YOU MUST REWARD YOURSELF. Never mind how much you get paid for doing your job, there is a part of it that will never ever be compensated by any money: your passion about it; the time you spend thinking of new ways to approaching a task; the energy you use; the love you put in every word, in every thought; the precious time of your life that you dedicate to it. Maybe money will pay for the final product, but YOUR PERSONAL REWARD WILL PAY FOR THE PROCESS which made the final product possible.Viennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17791600858674738910noreply@blogger.com
