Live Your Dream
No matter your profession or pursuit, you never stop learning and trying to improve your craft. Even if you’ve been writing ten, twenty, or thirty years, you should treat each day as a way to improve your prose, to step outside your comfort zone or use it as an opportunity to ask your fellow…
This quote reminds me that no matter how hard something is, even if it sometimes seems out of reach, if it’s that thing in life that matters and deep in your heart, you’ll find someway to achieve it. If it’s writing a book or becoming a freelancer that matters to you, you can do it.…
This is our last Monday Motivation for 2019. I recently found this quote and thought it a really powerful one. While it could be applied to any pursuit, use it to ask yourself if writing a book, becoming a freelance writer, or even beginning your journey as an author, is in your plans for 2020?…
When it comes to motivation, a popular theme is focusing on what’s stopping you from attaining your goal. This week ask yourself that question. Many times it’s us and no one else. You’ve heard of the saying about someone being their own worst enemy. Don’t be yours. Don’t say I can’t or I could never…
I love a quote that reminds us to turn something negative into a positive. Only we set the boundary between what’s possible and what’s not. Don’t let not writing your book be part of your impossible.

Have you been putting off starting that book or short story? Use this week to get the first sentence or chapter written. Every story begins with that first step…
I always say you are what you think (not what others think about you). It works for writing too. Do you think you’re not as good as a bestselling author? Feel that you don’t have a chance to ever be published? Can’t handle self-publishing your own book? This week, choose to have a positive state…
You’ve heard of the saying about being your own worst enemy and I sometimes think that applies to writing. It’s all too easy to get into your own head, hear those voices of self doubt…the ones that tell you you’re not as good as bestselling author A, don’t write prose like author B, and…
I love this quote because it reminds me no matter how many times we fail at something, there’s an opportunity to try again. Only we stand in the way of doing just that. This week if a rejection comes your way or a story isn’t working out as planned, simply start over.
