A lack of clarity or being confused about what you\u2019re actually writing, often means ending up with writer\u2019s block.\r\n\r\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2865 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/writing-923882_1920-1024x683-1.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/writing-923882_1920-1024x683-1.webp 1024w, https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/writing-923882_1920-1024x683-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/writing-923882_1920-1024x683-1-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019re not clear with what you\u2019re writing or if you\u2019re confused about what you\u2019re trying to write, it\u2019s not going to be very easy for you. What I like to do is to come up with an outline or have a really strong, clear idea of what I\u2019m writing before I actually sit down and write.\r\n<h2>Tip #2: Stop Perfectionism<\/h2>\r\nToo many people are perfectionists when they <a href=\"\\&quot;https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/6-copywriting-tips-for-beginners\/\\&quot;\">start writing<\/a> and what that means is having <strong>unrealistic and unachievable standards<\/strong> for yourself that you are unlikely to achieve.\r\n\r\nFor copywriters what that means is sitting down and <strong>expecting everything you write is going to be amazing<\/strong>. We beat ourselves up over it. Stop being a perfectionist and realize that progress with your writing is more important than getting it right the first time.\r\n<h2>Tip #3: Write Without Editing<\/h2>\r\nToo many people sit down and write, write a sentence, then decide that it\u2019s no good. They delete the whole thing by hitting backspace. They write, delete, write, delete &#8211; and end up with nothing.\r\n\r\nHere\u2019s a better way. <strong>Sit down and write the first draft without editing<\/strong>. Don\u2019t edit while you write. You can always come back and edit your first draft later.\r\n<h2>Tip #4: Use A Stop Timer<\/h2>\r\nYou could use an old-school egg timer or a timer on your phone. Basically, you want to set a countdown timer for 15 to 30 minutes. Then do nothing but focus on writing until your timer hits zero.\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2866 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/time-731110_1920-1024x683-1.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/time-731110_1920-1024x683-1.webp 1024w, https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/time-731110_1920-1024x683-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/time-731110_1920-1024x683-1-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n\r\nThe goal is to do nothing but write for a set period of minutes. It gives you a mini deadline to focus on and by doing this, you\u2019re really able to get in <em>\u201cthe zone\u201d<\/em> and <strong>avoid distractions<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s a great strategy for getting lots of writing done and writing for short bursts makes you a <a href=\"\\&quot;https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/how-to-become-a-better-copywriter\/\\&quot;\">very productive writer<\/a>.\r\n<h2>Tip #5: Avoid Distractions And Interruptions<\/h2>\r\nIf you\u2019re writing from home, you might have family or friends coming over trying to talk to you and interrupting your pace. Or you might have distractions like <a href=\"\\&quot;http:\/\/www.wired.co.uk\/article\/age-of-interruption\\&quot;\"><strong>email alerts, your phone, facebook, or the internet<\/strong><\/a>. All these distractions can derail our writing and pull us out of the flow when we could be writing some great copy.\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2870 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/multitasking.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/multitasking.webp 1000w, https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/multitasking-300x240.webp 300w, https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/multitasking-768x614.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\r\n\r\nSo what you want to do is to <strong>turn off your phone (or put it on silent) and turn off the internet<\/strong>. You want to close the doors so people don\u2019t come in and interrupt you, and find a quiet place where you can get some writing done.\r\n\r\nBy doing these things, you\u2019ll find yourself more productive with your writing and avoid writer\u2019s block because you won\u2019t be getting continually sidetracked and distracted.\r\n\r\nI hope you\u2019ve enjoyed my <a href=\"\\&quot;https:\/\/startcopywriting.com\/5-tips-for-overcoming-writers-block\/\\&quot;\">5 Tips for Overcoming Writer\u2019s Block<\/a>.
