Well, it has been a long time since I have taken any actions into my career as a writer. This is not to say that the thoughts of writing a best seller have not been on my mind. I have decided I would even settle for some simple and ill paying published pieces, simply to get my feet wet and step into the game for real. I am sick of sitting on the bench.
What am I to do? Shall I simply wait for the Universe to take over? Do I just keep thinking and envisioning myself as a successful writer and all will fall into place as planned? I love the new song by Miley called "The Climb." It is wonderfully refreshing, even if the message is delivered in a pop song by a sixteen year old. The words are magnificent, and very motivating. I am trying to keep myself on the present and focus more on my journey and less on the finish line. I had an art teacher in high school who said, "Art is a journey, not a race." I think that ten years ago, unbeknownst to me, he was giving me some sound advice for the now.
