When it comes to your writing,
never play it safe
Push your boundaries
Put pressure on yourself
to be great
Become more creative,
more humorous,
more entertaining,
more informative
Placing expectations on yourself
helps you to
rise to the challenge
and
knock down all obstacles
So live everyday
Live in the moment
If you do,
you will not falter
So dare to be great
cause the time is now
for you to share your words
and
all that you are
Midlife, Maniacal & Me 
I’ve been challenged to begin writing a novel (yikes!) and your words might be the push I need, Mark!

It’s not an official challenge…I’d like to use the traditional month of November and see what happens!

I love this one Mark! I think you’re so right about needing to have high expectations for ourselves, especially when it comes to writing. As you said, that self-imposed pressure might just be the push we need to “Become more creative, more humorous, more entertaining, more informative.”
