\"HowLet\u2019s welcome back monthly columnist Chloe Adler<\/a> as she shares with us \u201cHow To Focus When Writing or Editing – Finding What Works for You.\u201d Enjoy!<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

During my last couple years of indie publishing I\u2019ve experimented with a myriad of different techniques<\/strong> \u2013 aiming to crack the nut of productivity. Where is the best place to write? When is the best time to write? How much can I produce in a day? How can I increase my productivity? How\/where can I focus?<\/p>\n

Some things I\u2019ve found<\/h2>\n

\"I\u2019ve written in cafes, on airplanes, in co-working spaces, at home, in hotel rooms, in the car, at the hairdressers, libraries and many other places. Some things I\u2019ve found that affect my productivity are noise and distractions.<\/p>\n

The distractions can be the people at the table next to me in the caf\u00e9<\/strong>, my dog whining, the upstairs neighbors being too loud or even things as mundane as my to do list while at home. There\u2019s always laundry that needs to be done or dishes that need washing or lunch that needs making or a dog that needs walking.<\/p>\n

During the past year, except when traveling, I\u2019ve mostly worked from home. I\u2019ve been trying to crack the productivity code for myself with the caveat that it\u2019s different for everyone. I tried to track my progress on a spreadsheet, many times.<\/p>\n

I entered data for when I wrote<\/strong>, where I wrote and how much I got done. After a week I\u2019d give up annoyed that I had to spend time filling out a worksheet when all I wanted to do was work. I read (and listened to on audible) to Chris Fox\u2019s book, 5,000 Words per Hour<\/em><\/a>, <\/em>Rachel Aaron\u2019s 2K to 10K<\/em><\/a> and a slew of other books on the ways and how\u2019s to write faster. And these books are great, they really are but ultimately their advice didn\u2019t work for me because they were systems that worked for the people who wrote them. This is not a one size fits all profession.<\/p>\n

Taking a class<\/h2>\n

\"takingUltimately I took a class from Becca Syme<\/a>, that delved into each person\u2019s individual strengths. We took the free Meyers Briggs<\/a> and basic (least expensive) StrengthsFinder<\/a>. I read through her class materials and had a one-on-one with her, all trying to unlock my own secret sauce. She made some great suggestions but the best advice she gave was \u201cTry everything. Don\u2019t get discouraged. What works for one person will not work for everyone.\u201d And she is right.<\/p>\n

She also told me why other methods didn\u2019t work for me<\/strong>, based on my personality type, which allowed me to finally let go of my comparisonitis and my wanna be Chris Fox or Rachel Aaron\/itis. Letting go of what didn\u2019t work started me on the path to finding what did.<\/p>\n

My challenges<\/h2>\n

My biggest challenge is that I\u2019m extremely noise sensitive. Any noise while I\u2019m writing can pull me out of my zone for an hour or more. I took to wearing earplugs all the time until I hurt the insides of my ears and had \"noiseto stop. Plus they didn\u2019t silence enough noise.<\/p>\n

In Becca\u2019s class I learned about<\/strong> brain.fm<\/a> which influences cognitive brain states, according to their website<\/a>. All I know is that I went from a person who couldn\u2019t focus or cut out noise to a person with laser focus when I\u2019m listening to the focus tracks from brain.fm on my noise cancellation headsets. And I\u2019m a person who\u2019s never been able to listen to any music while writing, reading, meditating before but brain.fm puts me into a state of deep concentration.<\/p>\n

My next challenge was the distractions of being at home which includes housework as well as the internet.<\/strong> I use freedom<\/a> to block websites but it still wasn\u2019t cutting it. I\u2019d spend 8 to 10 hours a day writing or editing and barely make my word count or my day\u2019s editing goal.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d worry for more than half the day about not being able to produce. I\u2019d procrastinate and emotionally beat myself up. I\u2019d deny myself from going out, socializing or having any fun because I still had work to do. I stressed out my friends and myself.<\/p>\n

I looked for a solution<\/h2>\n

Caf\u00e9\u2019s don\u2019t work for me, there are far too many distractions but I had, in the past, tried co-working spaces. They worked about 50% of the time but they were either too far from my house or too noisy, usually both. Recently I found a new\/ish co-working space in my town! I tried it out and when used in combination with brain.fm<\/a> on my noise cancelation headsets I finally found my own personal winner.<\/p>\n

\"co-workingIn 2 to 4 hours a day at the co-working space<\/strong>, I\u2019ve been able to get more work done that I used to get done in 10 hours at home. And not just one day a week, this has been consistent for multiple days and weeks in a row.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not saying this will work for everyone, but it\u2019s working for me. What I want to impart is \u2013 don\u2019t give up. Keep trying different strategies. Be innovative. Ask questions and have fun experimenting! For this particular crux I have to insist that it\u2019s about the destination, not the journey but you can\u2019t find that pot of gold without traipsing over the rainbow.<\/p>\n

If you sign up for her newsletter, not only will you find out more, you\u2019ll also make her jump up and down with joy for at least 3.5 seconds. Wouldn\u2019t that be nice?<\/em><\/p>\n
