put those thoughts onto pages, a steady writing
schedule is required. Finding enough spare time
and the discipline to make writing a daily habit
can be difficult, especially for aspiring authors
who work full time. With todays modern smart
devices, access to the internet, and a heavy
online presence, its easy to lull yourself into
a procrastinating pattern. Here are a few tips
and techniques that you can utilize to establish
a robust and successful writing schedule.

The Main Time-Management Challenges Writers Face
Balance Most freelance writers are handling
multiple products at the same time, and because
they are self-employed, they need to keep looking
for clients to have consistent work coming in. It
can be tough to manage your marketing efforts and
maintain track of work, so you are meeting your
deadlines for each project. Expectations Every
author has a distinct image of the type of author
they wish to be. Its frequently based on their
experience with literary success, the types of
books theyve enjoyed reading, or the education
theyve acquired.

It is easy to underestimate or overestimate a
task before you start working on it. That is why
its best to have a realistic expectation of what
you want to accomplish in a certain amount of
time. The best solution is to designate a
specific amount of work that you are confident
you can complete on time while yet remaining
flexible enough to reschedule things. Thats not
to say you cant switch things up as your goals,
personal circumstances, or writing habits change.
The tactics of your routine can be changed, but
your devotion to the schedule itself
cannot.Focus When you are working on multiple
projects, it can be hard to get your mind to
shift.

Sometimes you get so absorbed in an assignment
that it gets difficult to shift your focus to a
different project. This keeps you focused on a
single task while disregarding your other work.
You need to practice on being able to direct your
attention to what you need to be working
on. Multitasking Our short-term memory can only
hold four or five pieces of information at once.
Multitasking can easily cause you to exceed that
limit before your brain has had time to convert
it to long-term memory for subsequent recall. So,
if one of the things youre doing when
multitasking is attempting to memorize new or
essential information, youre unlikely to
remember it.
