Happy Monday Motivation!
.
I'm out riding (and writing) this morning!
.
Fear is the enemy of creative people. So, there’s nothing like doing new things to knock the fear out of you... like learning to ride a motorcycle. It is an experience that I never knew I’d be doing and now, can’t imagine being without it. As a writer, experiences are everything! We draw upon them for characters.
.
"Try new things every day. Don't be afraid of failures. You will not lose anything. But your brain will be packed with experiences." Akash Ryan Agarwal

GOALS
.
This is something I forgot about but is something I’m starting up again.
.
Years ago (I’m not saying how many), I used to walk/run 4 miles a day. I had note cards in my hand that held lists of my goals, which I’d read and repeat as I walked/jogged. They were the mantras of what I wanted in my life... my goals that I wanted to realize.
.
Today while going back through the cards and then my journals, I was able to check off items that I had achieved throughout the years. 😊 To be able to revisit the goals and see them completed was the kick I needed to continue making and revisiting my current writing goals.
.
Then I stumbled on this "Treasure Map" page encircled by the elements I sketched. I also found the very first written drafts of the first book in the series I had drafted in 2011.
.
Yeah, Time to get all of them finished.

Writer Wednesday
Life Gets in the Way
.
You’ve set your goals to finish your books and embark on your publishing business and future. You’re excited and ready to finish your best work, getting those words out and heading toward the finish line. Then, life happens. The truth for all creatives is that life gets in the way. It’s just how it is.
.
That can mean massive changes at the day job, causing you to have more work and be mentally exhausted at the end of the day. Family problems of all kinds creep in, and then to top it all off, nature malfunctions and everyone is without power for a week or more. With all those pauses, you stop writing.
.
A dear writer friend calls the events that get in the way of artistic pursuits, “The Threshold Guardians.” Their purpose is to serve as watchers for the gates of creative works, ensuring that you take up your hero’s journey to grow and overcome, and really mean to reach that finish line with a completed work… even if you crawl over it.
.
You may have to dial things back, like writing with what time you do have. If it’s 15 minutes today, that means more words than yesterday and another small step towards finishing. You can do it. Write 15 today. Make it 20 tomorrow… and so on.

Tuesday Vibes
Create. Live. Breathe
.
What is the point of all the hustle if you’re not enjoying it? The phrase, “Enjoy the Ride!” comes to mind. But what does that mean? When you’re building a business based on your writing or other creative passion, it’s not always going to be easy to finish the works let alone create a business. Passion alone will not be enough because life has a way of getting in the way.
.
In those dark moments (in writing, it’s called “the dark night of soul”) looking towards all that needs to be done to keep going to the finish line seems overwhelming and hopeless. That’s why it is critical to enjoy the journey because passion for creating something was the reason you started in the first place and is the reason to keep going. Artists do their art no matter the outcome; writers should write their stories no matter what.
.
Tabitha Emma writes, “If there is a purpose to what you are doing, and you enjoy the journey, the outcome is less important, because instead every step matters, and every small progress is an achievement.”

Motivation! Goals & Planning Towards Writing Succe

Motivation!
Goals & Planning Towards Writing Success
.
To gain moment, you must write down your goals along with how you will achieve them. Below is idea to get you started.
1. Have a specific goal.
2. Have a specific time to achieve your goal.
3. Write down your goal.
4. Develop a plan to achieve your goal.
5. Decide what price you are willing to pay.
6. Think about your goal every day.
.
With regard to number 5, Nina Amir writes, "Paying something to reach your goal means that achieving something costs you personally on some level. You might actually have to sacrifice, give up something…like a few hours of television, a vacation, some sleep, time spent reading. I’m talking about not doing something you enjoy [such as] achieving the goal you desire." (Amir, Nina. Book Goodies).
