There are obstacles in life that will challenge us physically, mentally, socially and emotionally but don’t worry because there will be opportunities within those challenges that will somehow help us to succeed.

Sometimes…

/ markmkane / 1 Comment

Sometimes…
you need to embrace what’s in front of you
instead of fighting it
Sometimes…
whatever happens,
is out of our control
Sometimes…
in order to move forward,
you need to take a step back
Sometimes…
we need to fail
in order to succeed
And sometimes, just sometimes…
things line up perfectly
and everything goes your way
So have a little faith
if you have a case of the “sometimes”

Words As Weapons

/ markmkane / 1 Comment

Our words can be a dangerous weapon,
so we need to always
think before we speak
A fired bullet
can never be put back into a gun
So when your emotions run high,
pause and take a moment
to choose your words carefully
Remember…
your words can either
hurt or help someone
depending upon its intent

Never Stop Learning

/ markmkane / 1 Comment

Writing
is an evolving art form,
so never stop learning
The moment you stop
and
think you know all there is to know,
then you should quit
Writing is a craft
that requires constant learning
You learn about yourself,
you learn from other writers
and you learn from life
So stay motivated
and
continue your education

The Writer’s Blueprint

/ markmkane / 5 Comments

There are people
that want to be writers
but few are willing to do what it takes
to master the craft
If you’re willing,
what’s the blueprint?
You must be willing
to make an attempt,
to fail,
to learn
You’ll fall at some point,
pause to take on other priorities
or get distracted
If that happens,
just get back on track and try again
Continue with your attempts
until you get it
Continue until you do not
possess self-doubt
Keep getting back up
and
strive to try again
