Thank you very much.
First off I want to say superb blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your
mind before writing. I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out.
I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted simply just trying
to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or tips? Thank
you!
