There is a time in every writer's life when they need some help with their writing. All writers can work at improving their writing skills. The best thing one can do to improve writing is to write less, and spend a greater amount of time thinking about their writing.
Some writers have a hard time with their early drafts simply because they have not allowed themselves enough time to process an idea. A successful writer must give himself enough time to think of an idea, organize the flow of thoughts, and then expand those thoughts through their own creative streak.
It is probably easier to do this somewhere away from your usual work area and your computer. You can choose to sit alone at the park, engage in mindless activities such as doing household chores or working in the yard, or even go for a walk while you think. No matter what location you choose, it should allow you to think clearly, without worrying about being pressured by friends, family and co-workers.
No matter how busy and hectic your life is, everyone has a few moments when they can be alone to think, and maybe you should think of dedicating some of those moments to mull over your writing. As an added benefit, not only will you get your thoughts straight, but you will also take care of mundane chores that need to be tackled. If you can manage to focus on your writing more, your productivity will increase in no time. You will actually spend less time in front of the computer (or notebook) but will deliver more quality writing in that shorter time.
If a specific project is at the center of your focus, then you need to make sure you give it your full attention. If you are busy with a short project, your focus should be on the introduction. If, on the other hand, you are working on a long project such as a book or a novel, focusing on the chapter or scene you are working on is going to be helpful. See your project unfold in your mind like a movie, and since you are the person directing it, try to also pass along sounds, smells and textures. Put yourself in the shoes of the characters of your movie so you can identify with them and feel their emotions. Play with words and sentences in your head. Get into the rhythm of the words and let them dance at their own tune. Does the dialogue go along with the imaginary film in your mind?
The more clearly you can see images in your mind, the easier it will be to import them on paper. You can put your mind to work to create a product that's easier to write and more compelling to read. So, invest a little time into thinking, and you will see that writing is not as hard as you thought it would be.
