CREATIVITY IN TANGENT TO TIME\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

T<\/strong>IME\u2014a Resource\"\"<\/strong>Time, pertaining to creativity\u2014writing<\/em> inclusive is the periods in totality that it takes to accomplish the set goals of an undertaken project of the creative art: best likened to the entire phases, from conception to the birth of a child\u2014a <\/em>brainchild<\/em> in this case. Within this marked time frames, thought processes<\/em> take place\u2014ideas are tossed<\/em>, imaginations run wild, plans are unreeled \u2026 and then, actions that gear toward the creation\u2014bringing int\"\"o being, takes place. This time, whether allotted or not, must be considered a resource that is under one\u2019s control and sufficient to accomplish the set projects, or assumed tasks. Time in a nutshell is a resource, because it is that space within which accounted achievements are landed.\u00a0\u201cThe <\/em>most precious resource we all have is time<\/em>,\u201d1<\/sup><\/strong> and we individually have it in the same measure: wasted, it is irreplaceable.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Give It Time<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Since writing is done under a period of time, it behooves the writer to persevere, so as to meet set targets in due times. Talking of perseverance, it was surmised by some that \u201cit may have taken more than ten years to perfect Mona Lisa\u2019s lips<\/em>,\u201d* in Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s portrait of Mona Lisa (painting); though thought extreme, it was the amount of time he\u2014the artist<\/em> felt was needed to achieve the perfection he sought in her lips, and gave it that, to forever marvel spectators. I have written books in a couple of weeks, and written articles that spanned years before their publishing\u2014editing times inclusive: remember that the totality of the writing procedure if segmented has planning, research, writing, and editing, before it is published; asides from the process that has the inspired idea downloaded or fetched from perception. Set your goals, and timely too, but give creative processes the amount of time\u2014long or short<\/em> it requires to get done.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What to do with Time<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Time is not to be wasted, as the resource is so valuable, yet limited\u2014Use it: No day has ever accounted more than twenty-four (24) hours. \u201cProcrastination is the thief of time<\/em>,\u201d2<\/sup><\/strong> it was said, and this is the worst enemy to a writer. Do not shift the responsibility of today to tomorrow, for morrow is designated its own tasks too. Time is meant to be used not wasted, and its wastage brings about project abandonment, which is tantamount to fiasco. Use time! \u201cMoney or other resources wastage can be recouped, but time wastage is tantamount to gradual loss of life<\/em>.\u201d3<\/sup><\/strong> This is true, because the ambits of all lives and existences\u2014human or otherwise<\/em> are measured with time. For instance, one could say:\u00a0\"\"\u201cDolce my dog is four years <\/em>old.\u201d \u201cI have had twenty years<\/em> experience in writing.\u201d \u201cIt will take another thirty minutes<\/em> to get the article ready.\u201d \u201cNelson Mandela, 1918\u20132013<\/em>, was ninety-five\u00a0<\/em>at death.\u201d Those are the evaluations of time. Let the resource\u2019s relevance aid your goals\u2019 achievements, being that it wontedly guides set goals to know and announce when they are realized: this advantage amid many, facilitates the assessment of progress\u2019s so far made on projects embarked upon.\u00a0Life can be equated to work, since man was basically created to work<\/a>; therefore, the best way to use time is to work with it: with writing as a chosen profession, write with your time\u2014write with your life, and earn a living by it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How to Ply Time<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you can define your activity<\/strong> of the project to be embarked upon in clarity, this will help to sequence the activities<\/strong> in the order of priority rightly, and consequently develop a schedule<\/strong>\u2014proper plan<\/em>. As part of defining activities, other resources<\/strong>\u2014available<\/em> or unavailable<\/em> regardless, and time<\/em>\u2014duration<\/strong>, must be estimated. Time and other resources put together in a lucid plan will doubtless develop an infallible schedule that will land for you, success of your work\u2014writing project in this case.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The value of time is in using it wisely; moreover, the proper use of it creates the illusion of longevity for an active person. No wonder: \u201ctime<\/em> stays long enough for anyone, who will use it<\/em>.\u201d4<\/sup><\/strong> It actually plays major roles in the production of classics\u2014works that stand the tests of time<\/em>; albeit, production length in time\u2014long or short<\/em> are not criteria to come up with outputs\u2014either good or bad<\/em>. Give all forms of creativity with writing not left out, time\u2014enough to result in masterpieces. \u201cDon\u2019t say you don\u2019t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson and Albert Einstein<\/em>.\u201d5<\/sup><\/strong> So, make your indelible mark with your finely toned, powerful, literary prowess. Make wise use<\/em>, that will curb the waste of this resource\u2014time<\/em>, and create worthy literary bestsellers. Yes my colleague, you can.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you will agree with me that \u201c\u2026 a waste of time boils down to a gradual loss of life,\u201d then you will deliberately be decisive in the use of life, rather than its waste: you will curb time wastage\u2014invariably saving it. When you give your writing projects their deserved time, they certainly will turn out to be enlivened. This sure will bring your writings to defy all odds and be appreciated by almost, if not all readers.<\/p>\n

The next newsletter bearing an educative article that has to do with the continuation of same resource\u2014time<\/em>, but its management will be coming this time, before you know it\u2026. Keep watch!<\/strong><\/p>\n

In my next Newsletter hitting your inbox soon\u2014two days<\/em> precisely, you will understand how to basically manage time; the impartation has been enveloped in another interesting article. It is going to be a sequel to this article, which you just digested. You shall be delighted to receive it by the title: TIME. Pt. 2. TIME MANAGEMENT for the Writer<\/strong>. Be expectant; for the expectation of the faithful will not be cut off.<\/p>\n
