A DREAM – A STORY – A JOURNEY
Each major revision, I'm learning, takes a bit of customization to my process to fit the most current project I'm working through. Having a process is key, but it is not what will get the job done completely. Last week, as I was struggling to finalize the new outline for the manuscript, to wrestle out... Continue Reading →
Last week I finally started diving into the revisions for MS:TS. I've been dancing around this manuscript for the past few weeks, trying to figure out my way in, and after being sidelined with a cold for a week, I knew it was time to stop hesitating and start working. I realized after I sat... Continue Reading →
Going through my goal planning process and breaking it down over the past month has been hugely helpful as I look to the months ahead. With it all in mind, it is time for me to embrace a new timeline moving forward. Traditionally, I set an overview for my entire writing year in May/June of... Continue Reading →
Once I've finished the third step in my goal planning process ( Timeline and Tools: Goal Planning Process Step 3), I'm ready for the fourth and final step.

Once I've finished the second step in my goal planning process (https://wordpress.com/posts/my/nikolebreault.com ), I'm ready for step three.

This second step is where I brainstorm and begin to break down everything I want to accomplish with my new goals. Brainstorming is a process in which someone gets all of... Continue Reading →

It’s a process I’ve created based on countless articles, motivational speeches, goal planning systems (both paper and digital), etc. and advice from writers, authors, friends, motivational speakers, mentors, etc. given or read...

This week involved a few unexpected things that took away from the completely mindless relaxation I had planned for the family. It wasn't totally negative or totally positive and I'm taking it as the mindset I need to let 2021 go. 2021 was challenging and I know this is a universal truth for most of... Continue Reading →
Last week was a jumble of last minute holiday preparations and limited family and friend gatherings. In between I was able to get some work done on my goals, my vision board, and took some steps to the big revision to happen in January. Mostly though I enjoyed time with my husband and girls, all...

I did indeed take some time away from any projects last week to appreciate and celebrate all that I’ve done and accomplished so far. It felt really good to sit back and revel in the quiet for a bit. (Also, in the game playing, cookie baking, and snowperson building. 😁) Then, I got back to... Continue Reading →
