Just this morning I was knocking out my morning pages – 750 words I write every day, come what may, regardless of ideas, form or inspiration – and was reflecting on exactly the idea you talk about here: that self-talk around what I could be doing right now, wondering if I could pursue it and make it happen.

Believing in possibilities is the first step to making anything happen, then you’re left with nothing but hustle to get you through it. And if you’re really going to do it, you just have to believe that you have that hustle within you.

And we all do.
