Quiet Pages, Day Eight: Old Dog, New Tricks

Hello and welcome to Quiet Pages, day 8. Thanks for being here.

Day Eight

What new tricks have you learned lately? There’s so much changing in the world today and so many things to learn. I don’t know about you, but continuing to learn helps keep this old dog feeling younger.

Today’s prompt: Today’s prompt is about “new tricks.” What have you learned lately? What would you like to learn? What do you need to learn? Don’t worry, you don’t have to be or identify (like I do) as an old dog. This prompt is for good dogs of any age and cool cats, too.

The nudge: Sometimes the new trick may seem small, but it can still be significant. Make a list of small tricks or skills you hope to learn. Make a plan for learning at least one. And write about what difference it might make to your life.

The goal: Let’s see if we can trick ourselves into writing at least five words or five sentences today.

You want to know a good trick? Keeping a daily writing practice. Hope to see you tomorrow for Quiet Pages, Day Nine. Until then, write on!
