Choose a topic that is on your mind, something that you may be having difficulty figuring out or dealing with - Mine was how can I write more songs - yours may be - how can I meet my soul mate or how can I make more money in my current job or how can I lose weight - etc.
Ask a question and just start writing an answer based on how you feel. Do not actually think about your answer/response. Let it flow out naturally.
Responses may come in the form of questions or statements - for instance you may ask how can I write better tunes - the answer may come as, "when was the last time you wrote a tune?"or "how often do you practice a night?" etc etc
When asked how often do I practice a night - my answer was; "maybe about an hour - followed by - Why only an hour? - (this may seem strange to you at first in that you are typing out a conversation with yourself but after a while you will realize these answers come deep within and will actually help you).
The objective is to just freely write whatever is on your mind without really thinking about it. I like the question and answer format because It allows me to take a problem and see it attacked at different angles. If you prefer you can even just freely write whatever is on your mind - this is also very helpful. Have fun with it and unlock your inner being.
Good luck,
Geoff
