First of all I would like to say great blog! I had a quick question which I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing. I have had trouble clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts  out. I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first  10 to 15 minutes are wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Cheers!
