Few years ago, when I was a newbie copywriter, it took me FOREVER to write the simplest assignments – 100-word emails, FB ads, short blog posts and so on.
Fast forward to today...
I write emails in 7 minutes.
I write blog posts in a couple hours.
I write long sales pages within a day.
And I never feel stumped or stuck on what to say.
I just WRITE.
What's my secret?
Setting strict deadlines.
Why?
Because deadlines force you to complete tasks, in less time.
A wise quote to remember & live by is...
“Work expands the time given”
For example:
Let’s say you want to write a blog post for a client… but…. It’s taking you FOREVER to write.
Deadlines to the rescue!
What you ought to do is, give yourself a deadline.
Let’s say by 5pm today. (Or, you can set a deadline to complete this task in X hours. For example, set your timer for 3 hours and do not do anything else until your done.)
Now, what this deadline will do is, it will ELIMINATE over thinking, procrastination, doubts, writers block, etc.
Because it puts pressure on your brain.
Your brain likes pressure.
Pressure forces your brain to find ways to achieve your goal within the time given.
For years now, I’ve been using deadlines for ALL the work I do.
Writing copy, lead generation, creating products, creating a new business from scratch, etc.
And guess what?
The time it takes me to get tasks done has cut down faster than a coked up lumberjack.
And, as a direct result, I pocket more mula, generate more clients and have more free time than eva before.
Tis a beautiful thing.
And the same can be true for you when u work within strict deadlines.
