Give yourself a break.
Whenever I am in the middle of getting into a mode where I have no distractions and I can write in peace,
It’s dark.. and I’m alone… and then BANG! You hear the butler downstairs rushing or running back and forth downstairs. Your heart starts racing, because you know the TV is on all day, turned on by itself. (Very loud)
Your heart beats so fast and uncontrollably you wish it would just go away. Sometimes you don’t even have enough space to walk because somethings always in the way. It gets in the way of your daily life, activities. and work. “Are you okay?” “U Ok?” is all you hear as his fragile voice echoes throughout the house. Wishing you weren’t there in the house with all these distractions.
“Will I ever get to have a moment’s peace?” Between the car alarms, and people stomping around, and neighbors slamming doors. “When the FUCK will I have a moments peace to myself so I can finish my writing?” “Will I ever get anything completed before this all over?”
Give yourself a break, then come back to it when you have cleared your mind, if there are external sounds which control your daily life, get those earbuds or earplugs. If there are people bothering you then find a way to lock the door and turn off the TV or get away from the TV or commercials or whatever it is.
