    First off I want to say awesome blog! I had a quick
    question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing.

    I have had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my
    thoughts out there. I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10
    to 15 minutes tend to be lost just trying to
    figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or tips? Cheers!
