Musicians do not appear on stage to perform without hours of previous practice. Dancers learn their choreography in the studio before they dance for the public. Singers do scales. Athletes stretch. Writers need to light their Creative Fires and maintain their Creative Flow too.
Writers need to write – often, regularly, for all kinds of reasons.

Last night I handed out the following list to my Write with Spirit class. I asked everyone to consider why they write. It helps to know. In fact setting your intention for writing with a specific purpose in mind harnesses the creative forces of the universe on your behalf. Often we are wishy-washy. We want to write to educate and we end up writing to soothe ourselves. Both are important and valuable – yet require different attention from us.

  1. Write to Free Your Creativity – You want to live a creative life and writing is one way to do that.
  2. Write for Wholeness – You want to develop, deepen and expand your connection with your Higher Self.
  3. Write for Guidance – You want to receive guidance from your Higher Self.
  4. Write for Insight and Understanding – You want to broaden your perspective and see through the eyes of Spirit
  5. Write for Personal Growth – You want to experience more personal balance, alignment, and calm. You want to know your authentic feelings and needs better. You want to learn and grow
  6. Write to Heal – You know writing offers you a path through confusion to clarity, through sadness, depression and fear into hope, appreciation and forgiveness.
  7. Write for Relief – You want to step outside of your small mind, find comfort, soothe yourself.
  8. Write for Joy – You write because it is fun and you love doing it! You reach for to experience the joy of “Dancing with the Universe.
  9. Write to Deliver a Message – You have something to say and you want to teach, share, educate.
  10. Write to Entertain – You want your words to provide delight, humor, intrigue, drama or fun for others
  11. Write to Inspire – You want your words to help others to wake up to their own Magnificence.
  12. Write to Connect, Move, Touch – You want to touch hearts, provide comfort, romance, ease, and hope.

The next time you sit down to write consider your intention before you begin:

  • Do you seek inner guidance?
  • Do you want to free your Self-Expression?
  • Do you want to hone your writing skills?
  • Do you want to give words to a message that wants to be born through you?

When you write with a destination in mind you are more likely to get where you are going. Just do not forget to include regular writing practice in your schedule. Writers do need to write.
