1 Do the morning pages

​Morning Pages are three pages of longhand, stream of consciousness writing, done first thing in the morning.

​

There is no wrong way to do Morning Pages. They are not high art. They are not even “writing.”

​

They are about anything and everything that crosses your mind– and they are for your eyes only.

​

Morning Pages provoke, clarify, comfort, cajole, prioritize and synchronize the day at hand. Do not over-think Morning Pages: just put three pages of anything on the page...and then do three more pages tomorrow.

To embrace means to accept an idea with enthusiasm

​

​At times your online learning will be very boring. Accept it. Seek support. Do the boring work.

​9 Ask a lot of question!

​Why should you ask?

​

​Because sometimes teachers make mistakes.
