When I started writing years ago, I would have given anything for the opportunity to have a professional in the writing world take a look at my story, tell me I was brilliant. I was so thrilled to give my story to family and friends and then hurt and disappointed when they either didn’t finish reading it or dodged me when I asked them if they liked it.
I know if we put as much effort into balancing the rest of the significant areas of our lives with our passion for writing, we’ll not only be terrific authors and leaders in the field, we’ll be more likeable, grounded, healthy, financially savvy, relaxed and happy. And shouldn’t that be the goal of our writing, to feel marvelously amazing? I know that’s my goal.
