Listen to your Heart

Hello friends and writers!

For this month's Insecure Writer Support Group post, I am encouraging you all to keep going.
  • Many things in life get in the way of our dreams and goals.
  • And sometimes things come up that force us to change > direction <.
  • But these ObStAcLeS, these tragedies, these seemingly INSURMOUNTABLE difficulties only make us stronger!
  • We don't always know what's best for us. And having to work for what we want makes the achieving that much sweeter.
  • So keep going, and soon you will say - I did it! I overcame! I reached and strived and didn't quit and I made it!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you leave a little more determined!

And if you can come back Friday, I'll have my first guest post of the year - Brinda Berry!

  3. A nice inspirational ra-ra-ra this morning! Thank you.

    I've decided this year to strive and keep going toward a few goals I decided to set. Hopefully, life doesn't get in the way too much *wink* and distract me!

  8. Yes tragedies make you stronger, as long as they don't kill you in many cases they seem more than likely to.
    But yes, I am leaving more determined.
    Thank you!!!

  22. I think it's the obstacles in my life that have contributed the most to my abilities as a writer. If everything were all so perfect, what would I have to write about?

  25. We always have to follow our hearts. Sometimes I already try to don't follow because of the others, but it's not good, just to hurt :/

    Have a good week! :D
