Finding a dream

We are all hoping something we do in this world matters.
We want our creations to stay with people forever.

I found my dream not by searching for it,
but by submitting to what I had always hoped was true.
I was, in fact, a writer. All I had to do was write.

Being a writer

Every day, somewhere, a writer is born.

Embracing your identity as a writer is mostly a mind game.
It’s about tricking yourself into becoming who you are.

Before anyone else called me one, I started believing I was a writer. I started acting like one.

Start writing. If you don’t, all you’re doing is waiting.

You are a creator of content, a wizard of words. They need you. Act like it.

Focusing on the work
