How to Get the Thrill of Writing a Book While Just Living Your Life
Sit down. Stand up. Drive. Go for a run. It doesn’t matter. Lie on the floor. You just have to be alive for this to work.
Focus on one thing. It could be a tree or your breath or the way your belly jiggles when you move or the way the floor feels under your back..
Clear your mind and let the experience of that thing, that tree, that breath, that jiggle flood your brain. Let your brain become that thing.
Be that thing until that thing becomes the next thing, the awareness of what is happening now: a song on the radio, an ache in your knee, the smell of your neighbor’s house that is on fire yet again.
Your body is a window between awareness and world. Be the window. Be the awareness. Be the thing.
Feel it all.
