After what seems like a “never-ending season” of dry desert & soul searching on what i want to do with my life, i’m coming to the conclusion that fear has been holding me back my entire life. the dreams i’ve had ever since i was a young girl have only really remained dreams…& i don’t want them to always just be ‘dreams.’
so thank you for the encouragement…(:

Wow, great post! My favourite to date. I will share this one with friends for sure.
There are so many resources that are in screaming support of that person inside you running the show while you’re inspired and excited and on top of the creative world. I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t hear as many supportive voices while I’m doubting myself. These pearls of well-thought supportive wisdom are surely at least as important as motivational messages pushing an already fast-spinning wheel of enthusiasm.

… and fun comment from Adam. I definitely agree that this can be extended beyond writers. Certainly to entrepreneurs.
I’m happy to hear the Thing 1 Thing 2 lesson come up. It didn’t come to mind for me while reading this post, but it’s always a message worth sharing.

This article and Adam’s comment were exactly what I needed to read today. Thanks to both of you.

An apt analogy, Adam. And one especially vivid to me right now, having just introduced my little one to his first volume of Dr. Seuss! You’re absolutely right: Doubt-ridden or not, one ought to strive to enjoy the ride. ~Mark
