Whenever something good happens, write it down. Buy a special notebook . . . and use it to list all the good in your life.
Everyone thinks they can be a writer. Most people dont understand whats involved. The real writers persevere. The ones that dont either dont have enough fortitude and they probably wouldnt succeed anyway, or they fall in love with the glamour of writing as opposed to the writing of writing.
For writing, getting off our buts means getting on our butts-putting it into a chair and not moving from the chair for a set period of time.
Write 10 times: 'Fear is my friend. Fear is the energy to do my best in a new situation.' You don't have to believe it; just write it.
