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
If there’s an obstacle
or a problem in your life
never go around it
always forge ahead
and go through it
If you try to take the path
of least resistance
then you’re cheating yourself
Going through
that tunnel of darkness
and somehow reaching
the light at the end of it
will bring you all the rewards and richness
you could never get
if you went around
Going through
will give you
the will, the strength, the knowledge and the confidence
to tackle and endure
anything and everything
that is thrown our way
The art of writing is a multi-step process. It involves commitment of time, effort in learning and trying, consistency in doing and the resiliency of overcoming.
We do things with a lack of judgement sometimes but when we learn from those, it can make an improvement in our lives. All we hope is that the mistakes leave a positive impression rather than a permanent scar.
A writer’s words empower eager minds that want to learn.
Explore the unknown with your writing so that your skills and instincts may rise to greater heights.
“A true writer does not make excuses for not taking the time to write.”
There is no such thing as a question without an answer. You just need to be willing to go out and look.
When we start out in life, that sense of naivety is truly a blessing. We are born into this world free of judgement. We see others as our equals. We have big dreams. Our imaginations are at its peak. We have no limitations. We don’t know the meaning of quit. We aren’t afraid to take chances and fail. We are curious about the world and seek to learn everything and anything that’s new. We show our appreciation and love openly and abundantly. We say what we feel and then move on with no grudges or hardships toward others. Our honesty leads the way and our good natured spirit keeps us ground. We share our infectious bright beaming smile to everyone we see. And best of all, every hour, every minute, every second is lived to its fullest; we live as if there’s no tomorrow.
Somewhere along the way, as we grew up, we lost some of those shining traits. If we can somehow remember what it felt like to be that child and apply it to our daily routine, then we can say that we are truly living. It’s easy, it doesn’t take much to regain back those redeeming qualities, we just have to be willing to try. So the best way to living our lives is to get back to the fundamentals.
We all have various dreams,
some big and some small
Achieving them within our lifetime
is a most daunting task of all
The failures, the pain,
the constant agony of defeat
Tests our will, our strength and resolve,
it knocks us off our feet
Constantly trying and failing
is one of the best lesson we’ll get
It develops our drive, determination and passion
improves our successful living skill set
Learning never stops
we have to grow everyday
Acquiring new and interesting knowledge
helps our dream get underway
The grind towards the dream continues on,
it’s a path difficult and unclear
We must grit our teeth, head straight-forward
and show that we have no fear
Our dream will never end
and in our hearts we must be true
To reach our goal, our life-long love
we must persevere and see it through
So when you’re chasing your dream,
dig deep and give it your all
In the end you’ll fulfill your goal,
you can be proud and stand tall.
