WRITING TIP WEDNESDAY// Writing deadlines.
⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇
I gave myself to the end of May to finish revising my plot.
For a long time, I struggled with the idea of self-imposed deadlines, worried that it would stifle my creativity.
As a recovering perfectionist, I still tend to get bogged down in the details. While this quality can be helpful (at times), it is also extremely counter-productive and paralyzing.
After a lot of trial and error, I realized that I needed to join in on the delicate dance of providing the space and time needed for my creative process, yet drawing the line at a certain point to move the story forward.
Balancing the two hasn't been easy, but for a recovering perfectionist, giving myself a deadline has helped to ease some of the writing anxiety I've encountered. If you have experienced or can relate to any of the above, I recommend giving self-imposed deadlines a go! ⏳
A gentle reminder: A deadline should be realistic and work within the confines of your life. If not, it has the potential to have the opposite of the intended effect.
Do you use self-imposed deadlines? Comment below with your experiences!

Forget being ready. Don’t wait for perfection or permission. Just show up. Step up.
We have work to do and we need each other so bad right now.

I guess what I’m trying to say, over and over again, when I’m sharing my scars and my dark places with you here on this public platform, is that we can be both and. That we ARE both and, and as long as we don’t pretend otherwise, we can lead from there.
.
There is immense power in our humanness.

☕️ is all you need to get through a busy week.. what’s everyone’s go-to Starbucks drink? Iced coffee is the best treat in the summer. I usually always get an iced vanilla latte with coconut milk in it but I’m dying to try some new things. Hope everyone’s week is off to a great start! Who’s doing anything exciting? Share below☺️
It's dangerous how my silence was mistaken for me being ok.
It's the silence that should have concerned them.
It's the silence that has a lot to say.

“Why I’m Still Single and What I’m Really Looking For” The new blog is ⬆️ at courtneydiamond.com or hit the link in my bio.
The number one question I’m asked by internet humans is why I’m still single. Go figure. I answered that question in a 2016 blog, but went back yesterday and refreshed my thoughts 2019 style.
Look out for the companion solo podcast (All links on the site. Go subscribe) that’ll go with this and if there’s a question or topic you’d Iike me to tackle, send it in before tonight! I have a bunch already and they’re goodies. Thanks for those, everyone! I heart y’all.

After a week of pastries and pizza, I’m back at work today. For those of you who didn’t know, Science On A Postcard isn’t my full time gig! I work as a Researcher at the University of Aberdeen’s Health Services Research Unit, where I work on improving the way we do clinical trials. I love my job because it’s incredibly varied, no 2 days are ever the same ☺️ Today has so far included: working on 2 grant proposals, lots of work on getting datasets together for the next phase of the project that I’m leading, figuring out communications plans for another project, and addressing edits on a paper I’m writing from my PhD.
What are you lovely people up to today?
