I believe it all starts with yourself. First, have a correct and professional ability to manage your time. And it would help if you didn't put more in your mouth than you can chew. To avoid finding yourself overwhelmed by the pressure of time, you need to establish your own realistic schedules. Once established, you need to comply with them in the letter, with the professional responsibility your client or employer expects from you. Only after you have done your part very well, should you consider external help: in this case, hire a professional editor and a proofreader and pay for a quality service. This is exactly how I proceed when writing my books and, especially, when I have to meet deadlines as a ghostwriter.

Taking short breaks to reset in between allows for the flow of ideas to be constant.

It might help to consider a few guidelines: -Short, simple sentences rule -Verbs and nouns matter most. Too many adjectives, adverbs, and long clauses often mask poor subject and verb choices. -Use the senses when you can. Abstract concepts are hard to grock. Try illustrating concepts with visual language. -Tell your audience what your point is early. Then, expound on it. If you can’t do that, ask yourself why you’re writing. Once you can state that clearly, you can make sound decisions about what sentences to leave and what to omit.
