One of my clients dialled into a call from her exciting international location again this morning. 

And she told me she wrote the ENTIRE grant application that funded her travels during one of our regular writing challenges.

15 minutes a day.

It’s funny, because outside of the summer that’s all many of us have between meetings, teaching, admin demands, and 170 WhatsApps about redundancy rumours from the departmental group chat.

She didn’t wait for the mythical “stretch of time” to appear.

She stopped believing the lie that “real research” only happens in long blocks of silence.  (That never seem to appear)

And now she’s halfway across the world - grant in hand, energy intact.

Take a leaf out of her book and try for 15 minutes a day.  Summer’s a great time because often you can just stay on if you feel like it.
