Stepping
out of your comfort zone? Afraid you took on a goal you could never
possibly achieve? This may be the video you need to hear. Three times
now I've listened to its message, and three times I have found the words
helpful. I found some inspiration this week listening to speakers at the SCBWI Writers' Conference in Spokane, WA. Saw some old friends so all was good---loved it, but writing a new draft to completion remains difficult for me. Maintaining focus has always been a challenge, and I have a stack of unfinished drafts as evidence. This time, however, the luxury of time shouldn't be taken for granted. I have a book sequel to complete, so it's back to the 100-Day Challenge after taking two days off....and this marvelous video.
I'm headed back with my characters
to Mersing and the South China Sea this week. Just visited Singapore. Not in real time of course, but you get my drift..... Author of THE SHELLS OF MERSING

Go get those goals! I have to push myself to remember that too right now.
ReplyDeleteAnd same to you, Tonya. We have to stick together!
DeleteWishing you the best of luck with that sequel! And wow, what a great video. I've struggled with more insecurities than normal over my art career this year, so I really needed to hear something like this...
ReplyDeleteThanks Heather. Best of luck to you too. Setting up a new website is a ton of work!
DeleteI'm in query-mode, so yes, I really need to watch that video. Thanks for bringing it my attention.
ReplyDeleteBoy do I ever sympathize. Query letters are antagonizing! Glad the video encouraged you. I love it.
DeleteSuper video! My insecurities are always a burden but I try to work through them to the best of my abilities.
ReplyDeleteThat's great you can work through the insecurities. I have my moods and videos like this one sure help! Thanks for stopping by.
