One of my superfans
has what she calls ‘the writing closet.’
Whenever she hears one of her favorite writers
has a deadline looming
or a project she needs to focus on,
she throws her in the writing closet.
Whenever she sees the writer on social media,
she tells her “get back in the closet.”
It sounds silly
but it works.
One of the reasons I wrote 100,000 words
in one month
was because she threw me
into the writing closet.
Entrepreneurs often need
to be locked in a room also.
As Scott Heiferman,
co-founder of Meetup,
shares
“A lot of people think
entrepreneurship is just about reading stuff
and talking to people.
No.
You also need to build, make, design.
Meetup was started by me
locking myself in a room
and sketching, sketching, sketching.”
If you need to get something done,
lock yourself in a room
and complete it.
