Ah, I’ve started this practice — and the idea is simple: just write around three pages every morning. This concept was popularized by Julia Cameron in her book The Artist’s Way.
The purpose is not to write perfectly, but simply to write whatever comes to your mind. Repeated thoughts, worries about work, challenges in selling something, or even personal or spiritual reflections — everything is welcome.
The main benefit of this method is mental clarity. When your mind is clear, you can focus better and accomplish more. It also helps you define your daily to-do list and set your priorities.
When I started, I struggled to set clear goals. But as I continued this habit, clarity slowly emerged. Eventually, I created a one-pager containing all my goals, and from there, I began picking tasks aligned with them.
If you use digital tools like Notion, Obsidian, or Logseq, just aim for around 750 to 1,000 words each morning. Obsidian has a plugin that shows your word count, while in Logseq you’ll need to install one. I currently use Notion for calendar and time-blocking, not for note-taking.
So, if you’re facing writer’s block, start doing Morning Pages. As you write, thoughts begin to flow from your subconscious mind. Things you’ve forgotten resurface, and often, ideas for blog posts or creative writing emerge naturally from your daily reflection
