I’m struggling with making progress on a new type of writing project. So I procrastinated by reading some blog posts, including "How to get and stay motivated."

The author suggests questions I can ask myself, including "5. If I had no fears in this situation, what would I do?"

I have two answers:

1) I would tell my clients that I’ve realized that I don’t enjoy their kind of project. 

2) I would ask my clients to send me some good samples of written work in our format, so I can analyze it to figure out how I can model our joint project after those samples.

Sometimes I underestimate what I can do or I don’t give myself enough time to learn how to do it. On the other hand, just because I should be able to do X, doesn’t mean that I’ll enjoy it or that I have to do it.

I’ve got to mull this over.
