The Morning Nudge
Words to inspire and motivate you to get a little writing done today
******************************
You’ve probably noticed that two little words I often write, or say, are “at least.”
These two little words, used together, can be very powerful when you start to compare yourself to other writers, which is a dangerous thing, yet I know all writers do it.
Next time you read about a successful author and start to think - What’s the use of trying? I’ll never be as successful as her” - instead, tell yourself, Well, at least I wrote something today. At least I’m trying. At least I haven’t given up my dream.
“At least” can turn those negative thoughts into positive thoughts that will keep you going when you get discouraged and feel like giving up.
Try it!
