Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hey, guys, welcome back to the networking today another good guest,
Good Net. You made a seen her on the episode
a couple of times, but she's coming back and I
got some more questions because she's a very interesting entrepreneur.
I'll see you soon.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I'm saying it can't thank you Jesus when I'm done.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
You left me off from this.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Do I did to cause my brother come fus?
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Have you you? We always got interesting guests that come
up to the show, that come rock with us, right,
(01:21):
and it's always interesting when we got new guests coming on.
And she's not new. Doctor Net actually has been up
here already and I've been loving the energy she's been bringing.
And I can't wait to ask her some more questions
today on the show because today it's doctor Net day
again and she's been dropping these continuous books. This this good,
(01:45):
good content that I want you guys to pay attention to,
Pay attention to the content, pay attention to what's going on.
Doctor and Net welcome back to the network. Can you
please introduce yourself on the show? Over to you what's talk?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Hey, I'm here, Hey Stack, Hey, everybody, Doctor and that
publishing pusher in the house it's good to be back
on the network. And it's all about getting your voice out,
making it plain. I'm here for it, Come.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
On, doctor, and that let's go. So many people say
they want to write, but never start. What's the first
practical step to someone can take today to begin their
writing journey over you?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I think I will first say, start where you are.
That's the first thing. Start where you are, Start with
what you have. You know, there's no such thing as
a perfect time to get started, because we would never
just start it if it was. I like to say,
(02:48):
get your phone out, start writing notes in your phone,
different thoughts that you have, and just start building that content. Notebook,
blank document, write a thing, a paragraph of a question here,
a statement there.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Whenever you come, whatever comes to mind, write it. You
never know at what point you'll.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Be able to pull it and put it together with
something else. And one of the things, you know, zach
O Riah four ten in the Bible says, do not
despise those small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see
the work begin. So we don't like, you know, some people,
I got to do this, this, this, this, no. Just
get started if you have.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
A little bit and keep adding a little bit.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Before you know it, you will have a lot of
contient that you'll be able to work through exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
And that's what you're gonna be working on on YouTube.
I can't wait to see you, know what you do
over there, and for them to follow you over there
too and that. So I got another question for you.
What do you think stops most people from writing the
book that's inside them? What do you think stops people
from writing the book inside them? Over you?
Speaker 3 (03:56):
I would say fear. We're unsure you have a thought.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I don't know if I have to say this, because
you know somebody might say something about it, and I
just say, learn how to be true to yourself. If
it's what is in you to get out, then pull
it out.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
One thing I have.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Found out, no matter what you write, everybody's not gonna night.
That's just the reality of it. So you have to
find that contentment and what you are doing and trust that,
and trust that you know you're willing to take the
time and really think about what you're writing, pray over
what you're writing, and be true to your own voice.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Being true to your own voice. I love that, Doctor
and Matt, thank you for answering that, Now, how important
is setting a writing routine and what does your personal
writing routine look like day to day?
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Over to you, I think for most people some type
of routine is important. Now, what that routine looks like
it's going to be for It's going to be different
for each person. I'm actually an early bird morning person,
So if I wake up at two or three in
the morning, that's a prime time for me to get
(05:11):
to write. And I can accomplish so much in that
window between three and six o'clock in the morning. But
if you ask me to write something at six in
the evening, you can forget it. I'm brain fried because
my activity of my brain is earlier in the day.
So I would say, really finding a time that fits
best for you, and it doesn't have to be a
(05:31):
lot of time. It's about consistency quality of time over
quantity of time.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
I love that, Doctor Annett. Thank you for answering that question.
Let's get into our next one. What are some tools, rituals,
or habits that help you stay consistent in your writing today?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
You know, a calendar is imperative, having agenda, a mouthstone chart,
something that you have laid out your goals, what the
short term goals, your long term goal, your short term goals?
What are you plan to do this week? What do
you plan to do this month? What do you plan
to do within six months? And just keep working through that.
(06:14):
I keep a to do list and I have a
long list of things on it. I keep moving and
adjusting things on it. There are still some things on
it that I haven't gotten to yet, but they're not
my priority. There are things that I want to do,
so prioritizing We have so many things that we need
to do and want to do. If we don't prioritize it,
(06:34):
we're going to be haptazic because we're going to be
jumping all over the place.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
We thank you for that, doctor Innett. Let's get into
our next question. How can writers push past procrastination, self doubt,
and just the worry about being so perfect when it
shows up?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
So one of my friends used to say, done is
better than perfect. What does it mean if when we're
in this process we never going to get it one
hundred percent?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
We should We're going to get a ninety nine and
nine nine nine ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Or something like that, But you know, we want to
do our best we surely we do, but we have
to know at some point we.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Have to stop.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
At some point, we have to step back from our work.
And I don't want to say procrastination is like knowing
you need to do.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
It and you keep putting it off.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
But I want to say, strive for Just know that
everything you're doing, you are striving for perfection.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
We're not perfect being what we do.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
We are striving to do our best. And we have
to be real careful because procrastination and perfectionism are really
can really be fear in disguise. So we have to
learn how to find the keys to replace fear with purpose.
What's my purpose for writing? What's my purpose for doing this?
What's my purpose for getting this out? So reminding yourself
(08:06):
that sometimes that all the time someone is waiting for
the message that you have, we delay it. It means
it's not going to get to them anytime soon. And
one of the things that I know most people are
going to do. When you first start writing your drafts,
they're going to be messy.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
They're drafts, they're supposed to be message.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
But you will get better each time you go through
that draft. We'll get closer to that perfection. We'll get
closer to having excellence in what we're doing, but it
is a process that we have to go through.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I love that. Thank you, doctor, and I got some
more questions for doctor net on the network. Where do
your best ideas usually come from? And how do you
capture before they disappear? Let's get into that, doctor man.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Who the mind?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
The mind can be a terrible thing to waste. And
everything starts in the mind. All about thoughts start in
the mind. And my phone. I don't sleep with my
phone in my room, but I do have beside the
head of my bed a little notepad and a pin
there so that if I get a thought and I
(09:26):
need to get up and write it down, I will.
But during the day, as I get thought then I
just peak them into my phone, or type them into
my phone, into my note, into my audio on my phone,
my recorder, on my song. It's a little thing. It's
a little thing.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Thank you for that, doctor, and that. Now, do you
believe inspiration is something that comes randomly or do you
think it could be cultivated through discipline and faith? Over
to you.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I think inspiration can be both spontaneous and cultivated. I
believe that God can drop an idea into your heart unexpectedly.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
But I also believe the discipline creates the space for
us to be able to hear Him speak to us clearly.
So when we write consistently, what we do is we
train our mind and spirit to stay steady. So it's
like a gardener tend in a garden. You water it,
you wait, and suddenly, what happened? The bloom comes.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
But if you hadn't planning it, if you hadn't watered it,
and if you had not had patience through the process,
it would have not come forward. So inspiration grows where
consistency lives.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Oooh, I got doctor, And that she's heating these questions up, y'all.
She ain't. She's not new to this. She's true to this. Now.
How do you balance creativity with structure when you're organizing
chapters or planning the book over to you?
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I think creativity flows best when given directly, so I
see structure as the container that holds the inspiration. I
often start freely just writing what comes to mind, and
then I organize my thoughts into an outline or framework.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I pray, I know my purpose, and I plan.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
My plan is to keep what I'm doing aligned and
my word is intentional. I'm intentional about intentional about putting
this together. See, the structure doesn't restrict creativity. It actually
refines it so that the message reaches others clearly, and
it helps us.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
To do things also decently, in order and in order.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Come on, doctor, and that now my last question for you, doctor,
that is what's the difference between writing from passion and
writing with purpose? And how do you merge the two
over to you?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Writing with passion and writing with purpose?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Well, passion is that burning fire in us, Oh, I
feel good about this particular thing. But just because you
have a passion for something doesn't mean it's your purpose.
And our purpose is understanding who we are, who we are,
what we are called to be and called to do,
and then aligning that purpose with the passion. So we
(12:20):
should have an excitement, a joy, a movement about everything
that we are doing. But we have to understand our
purpose so that passion can build it. The passion is
going to elevate our purpose when we understand our purpose.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Come on, doctor, and that now I got one more
hot want for you, doctor. In that one more now,
when you hit writer's block, what's your process to get
unstuck and reunite your flow over you?
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Oh my gosh. People talk about this writer's block. Yes,
and our writer's block is just saying, you know, at
this particular moment, I can't think of nothing to go
along with this. You know, I say, go start working
on something else. That's when you step away from what
you're doing. Go start working on something else. Or take
(13:10):
this one sentence from what you have and just meditate
on that one sentence. Spend time on that one sentence,
build that one sentence into a paragraph, and then come
back and see if you can interject it and build
on it. So I don't live in writers what I
(13:31):
tell you, I don't live in writer's block because I
believe that.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
I have purpose. And because I have purpose.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Even though I may not be doing as much in
this moment as I.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Would like to do, it just means maybe.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
I need to shift where I fit, Maybe I need
to shift who I'm engaged with at this time. Sometimes
our position, our position might make the difference in that
block not being there.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Oh my god, listen, doctor, and that then heated it
up today. That work, doctor, and Nette. We'll be seeing
you soon in the future.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
All right, I'll be back. Thank you y'all. Y'all take
care and be blessed, Be blessed.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
See you later, Doctornette, thank you for coming, all right

Come on, doctor, and that now I got one more
hot want for you, doctor. In that one more now,
when you hit writer's block, what's your process to get
unstuck and reunite your flow over you?
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Oh my gosh. People talk about this writer's block. Yes,
and our writer's block is just saying, you know, at
this particular moment, I can't think of nothing to go
along with this. You know, I say, go start working
on something else. That's when you step away from what
you're doing. Go start working on something else. Or take
(13:10):
this one sentence from what you have and just meditate
on that one sentence. Spend time on that one sentence,
build that one sentence into a paragraph, and then come
back and see if you can interject it and build
on it. So I don't live in writers what I
(13:31):
tell you, I don't live in writer's block because I
believe that.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
I have purpose. And because I have purpose.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Even though I may not be doing as much in
this moment as I.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Would like to do, it just means maybe.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
I need to shift where I fit, Maybe I need
to shift who I'm engaged with at this time. Sometimes
our position, our position might make the difference in that
block not being there.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Oh my god, listen, doctor, and that then heated it
up today. That work, doctor, and Nette. We'll be seeing
you soon in the future.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
All right, I'll be back. Thank you y'all. Y'all take
care and be blessed, Be blessed.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
See you later, Doctornette, thank you for coming, all right

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
