Following Your Dreams

12/28/2011

0 Comments

 
I don't have any strong political messages to spread today.  Only a simple message.  Many people will tell you to follow your dreams, but you'll find most people don't really believe in you while they are telling you this.  Understand that you have to believe in yourself and that your belief will be tested to the core, especially by those you may consider to be close to you.  It's funny how that works.  Still, that's what happens more often than not.  So, you have to decide what you want to do, develop a plan on how you will do it, and forge ahead.  Understand up front that any support you get, even from your loved ones, is a bonus and isn't anything you can count on.  Even if you don't get support, as long as you know your plan is stable, stick with it and carve out time each day to dedicate to it, no matter what.  Make it a priority.  Understand that the reward won't be instant.  It will take tons and tons of hard work.  I speak from experience.  I wrote my book.  Now I am finishing up the sequel.  The sequel if almost 500 pages.  Presently, I'm reading each page out loud to try and catch as many errors as I can before I have this sequel professionally edited.  It's painstaking, tedious, and soooo long, but it is my plan.  My dream, and I'm going to make it happen.  I plan to transform this sequel, entitled "Beautiful Flower, Deadly Thorns" into a screen play.  I'm already inquiring with film companies about it.  Its going down.  And, when it does, all the people who have kicked my dream, I will smile at them and wish them well.

    I don't see disagreement as a negative because I understand that Frederick Douglass was correct when he said "there is no progress without struggle."  Our brains are muscles.  Just like any other muscle in our body if we don't stress it and push it, the brain will not improve.  Or, as a bumper sticker I saw once put it, "If you can't change your mind, how do you know it's there?"
