Incremental Progress
At times it seems challenging, almost Herculean, to get everything finished. That’s when I have to remember that it’s not about getting everything done in one day or one week but rather make small steps, sight progress towards my goal. I’ve faced that deal this week on a couple of fronts and the things I’ve accomplished are not all that I would have like to have completed but I did get some stuff finished. If I had just sat around all week and done nothing that would be cause for alarm but that’s not the case. Some things did get finished and some progress was made.
I can improve on what I’ve done moving forward but I must remember to not think negatively about what I didn’t get finished as that will only create a mental cycle of not being good enough.
Today, Saturday, July 20, 2019, I am grateful that:
I made some progress on Barkada yesterday. I started the character development and I’ll continue work on that today as well as put some work in on Lezur and perhaps make a few more chapter titles as well.
My zest for writing has returned. I’m uncertain about the ebs and flow of my creative “juices” but I do know there are some days when writing is more laborious than others. I’m glad that I actually “feel” like writing versus writing as a part of my routine.
Although not “crystal clear” I’m beginning to get some clarity. I’m moving towards writing and publishing and although it would mean yet another career change, I’m unafraid of the uncertainties. The normal inconsistencies typical of new career paths and the challenges faced when I’ve walked along a new path before are there, yet I am not fearful. It may simply be a part of my journey at this stage and something that needs to be faced and dealt with accordingly.
Be Bold. Be Impactful!
