My basic logic is that if I set a limit of 1000 words in a day, for example, then I’m likely to stop at 1000. I prefer to be able to look back on a day and not feel that I’ve wasted my time. If you always set out to do the best you can then you’ll never be disappointed. Some days you will write 1000 words, some days you may write 50 and that’s fine. I do much better with longer periods and I would suggest you try assessing your progress over a week or even a month. I write my blogs months ahead of the time they’re going to be posted. I average one every five days and I have a stockpile of twenty-four. Some only take a couple of days, the odd one has taken me a whole week but the simple fact is that I average one every five days and as most of my blogs some in about the 3500 word mark that’s 1000 words a day every day <i>on average</i> but not necessarily 1000 actual words written every day. Over the last two days I’ve written 2650 words but who’s counting?<br /><br>Jim Murdochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12786388638146471193noreply@blogger.com
