How do you deal with writer’s block?

I simply affirm that I am enough but that this may not be the day or the week or month to write. I do something nurturing for myself instead, filling up my well or attending to something else in my life. This gets me out of my head and into my heart - the place where my writing (when it is good) always comes from. Inspiration will always bob to the surface eventually. And sometimes you have to wait for all the pieces to come together in the subtle or subconscious realms for a bit longer. So developing patience and trust was certainly also a key for me. (less)

It's a feeling of exhilaration, like being plugged into some larger, cosmic flow. You feel somehow carried along by it, and not in charge of it. I love that sense of surrendering to the process and for me, it is easiest to access this feeling through writing, though I sometimes break through to this place while speaking. (less)

Remember the Shortcut in the Game, Candy Land? It’s Like That.

Ever since encountering the Enough Work four years ago, one thing has elluded me. I have struggled to find a clear and concise sentence or metaphor to express the profundity of what it is. Perhaps it is not necessary to do so, and I am too close to the work for it to become clear to me, but I feel I'm getting closer. As a child, one of my favorite board games was Candy Land.
