Terescia's thoughts and such.

As I’ve said before, some days are slow days, and there’s no getting around that fact. But lucky for me, some days aren’t. Over the past few days, I’ve been writing through my fingers. Every time I walk by my computer, I have to take a moment to sit down and write, even when I don’t really have time for it.

It’s led me to wonder what kinds of things can trigger a spell like that. For me, it was getting back on the bike after a few weeks off–literally. I ride a bike for my daily exercise and I’d let myself slack off. Going back to my nightly routine seems to have helped a lot. So, for those of you reading this who might not believe it, exercise really does make a difference. Not only do I feel less tired (and that’s after just three days back on the bike), I feel–no, I AM–more productive. I’ve doubled my daily writing production, and that will always be worth thirty minutes of my time.

As a side note here, I’ve noticed this phenomenon in the past, and told myself never again would I skip my exercise. It’s easier said than done, however, and I’ve fallen out of my energy-boosting exercise habit more than once over the past two (or three?) years.

I always tell myself it won’t happen again, yet invariably it does. So maybe this time, by choosing to write it down, I’ll have the strength to stick with it.
