There is no such thing as self made and anyone that stands by that claim is a liar. It takes a village to raise kids, regardless of the size. Even for single parents (and I know one who is doing an amazing job) there are still resources, here still is help. We all need help at one point in our lives or another. Dealing with grief, job loss, relationship or money issues. The car broke down or the trust in someones marriage.
I've learned as a writer that I too need help. I've learned from other creators and artists that I need to ask for help. Ask someone to share the art. Ask a fellow writer for advice. Ask a would-be mentor a careful and precise question. Asking for contact information for editors or publishers. Asking someone I respect to read my lengthy piece for feedback. By not asking I am procrastinating my own growth, progress and criticism.
Properly mentioned, procrastination is what I've been writing about for just over one year. Writing every day in order to NOT procrastinate. So, I'll ask you for your help.
To share this blog post, share a favorite that I've written or simply just tell someone about these writings. You tune in each day after 5 am to read these words and someone else should too. I did my part by asking for your help, now, you must do yours. Don't procrastinate. Help us grow our wisdom, grit and getting closer to living the good life. The holiday season is upon us; filled with shopping and tracking online purchases. For artists the best gift we can receive is exposure.
Your support... - thank you.
