Day 80
Everyday I wake up. Pray. Listen. Plan. Work. Pray. Listen. Focus. Write. Pray. Trust. Listen. Rest. Repeat. This is how I get through each day. Sometimes work is replaced with play. Pray. Listen. Live. Rest. Repeat.

Day 73
What are you good at? What is it that you love to do? Are your talents and your love in the same field? It makes for a happy life if you are good at what you do. Work at it. Get better. Make it a priority. Then use what you are good at, what you…

Day 72
How bad do you want it? If you really want something you will find a way. There will always be obstacles to work around. If it’s something important to you, the way will be found.

Day 46
Sometimes I feel like I am floating in a sea hanging on a life preserver. I am not alone. Everywhere I look there is another author floating by on a boat, raft, kayak, or yacht. We are all clambering to get to the land of readers. Some maliciously pushing each other off their vessels and…

Day 44
Packed 24 boxes of books today and we are not even half way through our collection. Relocating is a lot of work and stress. Good stress and necessary work. Toss in a full time day job and maintaining a full time writing career on top of relocating. Can I just say that I am exhausted?…
