Start your week right! Every Sunday I post my favorite links from around the web and share my goals for the upcoming week.
Links
On Writing:
11 Ways to Ask for Writing Advice (And 10 Major Mistakes to Avoid): Inspired by an email I was actually BCC’d on too, Kelly Gurnett details 11 ways to ask for writing advice (and 10 mistakes to avoid- BCC being one of them) for The Write Life.
On Working Hard:
Is Being a “Hard Worker” a Blessing or a Curse?: I caught this gem in Mary Catherine Starr’s “From The Archives” post (an idea I also hope to borrow and implement soon). She explores the idea of hard work and how it has been a double-edged sword in her life. I can completely relate!
On Doing The Work:
Doing the Work vs. Writing About It: My friend and mentor Alexis Grant shares why she’s reconnecting with “the making” and actually doing the work instead of just writing about it.
On Soaking Up Summer:
17 Free Things To Do (Anywhere) Before Summer’s Over: Trying to soak up the last few weeks of summer? Me too. Allison Daniels of MindBodyGreen offers up 17 FREE things to do to make the most of these final sunshine-y days.

Goals
- Begin to plan out my September yoga class flow. I’ve made it a goal to write one new flow per month while I’m subbing this often. If (and hopefully WHEN) I get my own permanent class, I’ll write two new flows per month.
- Post Part 2 of my “Demystifying Dating” series. You may have read the viewpoints of the dudes…coming this week: the ladies.
