Writer Productivity Style: Prioritizer
You can be a highly efficient writer with an understanding of what task to do first to meet your goals. You tend to be motivated by data and accomplishments.
More Strengths and Workarounds
Your strengths in problem-solving and meeting your goals can help you be laser-focused and productive. You may have blind spots that can affect your writing, such as a rigid focus on speed, sticking to your plan, and ignoring creative urges.
- Prioritizers work best with streamlined systems in place. Have a project plan in place and break that project down into calendar tasks. Include daily writing goals, marketing plan, reading list, and editing work in your plan depending on where you are in the process. Consider using our free writer worksheet
- You will feed your satisfaction, motivation, and momentum when you use a time-tracking system to get you focused and in front of a keyboard. If you sit down to work, and instead surf the net, or pay household bills, you will lose momentum. You need to eliminate distractions during your dedicated writing time. Having a calendar with today’s goals on it, and a practice of checking off the goals as you meet them, will feed your writing practice.
- Because you tend to be goal-oriented, you need to have a weekly check-in on your creative process, so you don’t check off tasks and ignore your creative self. One way to have a check-in is to have a weekly journaling session where you answer these questions.
Journaling Prompts for Prioritizers
- Is my writing project on track?
- Am I paying attention to creative urges.? Have I shut out new ideas or have I considered them?
- I know it’s okay to adjust my project and goals. Do I need to make some adjustments? If so, how will I amend my calendar and goals?
