Writing… One Day at a Time
“You cannot decide once and for all to be a writer. You must renew your commitment to writing every day.” -Inspiration & Motivation, Paul Raymond Martin
It can be hard to maintain discipline and keep writing every day. Little things, and big things, conspire to sap your energy or eat up your time and it is easier to let the writing slide than all the other things in your life.
When I miss a day of writing, guilt and doubt creep in and I wonder why I ever thought I was a writer. Wouldn’t a real writer be more disciplined? Wouldn’t a real writer make the decision to be a writer and then never falter?
Then I came across the quote listed above and the metaphorical light went on. You mean that I can start each day fresh and decide to be a writer that day? What a concept! Choosing to be a writer, one day at a time.
I can do that.
