Don't Always Listen To Expert Advice

The Good Fairy does not appear and wave its magic wand, the sages of infinite knowledge are woefully lost in mystical jargon that will cost you, and anyone telling you they know the secrets of life can only talk for themselves, their secrets for them. To understand what motivation is, one would have to feel an urge, a desire so strong, there would be no choice but to sally forth and conquer the dragon of fear. Ah, you say, but I'm afraid, afraid of failure, of trying and realizing that this was only a dream, a daydream, a fantasy to placate my unworthy mind. Well, all that is gold does not glitter, and a stitch in time doesn't necessarily mean success. The fund of universal knowledge is available to you and it's free. Hmmm, that's a cop out, I don't want to hear that kind of dribble. Okay, most of us at sometime in our lives are frozen in time, stuck, and like to hide under a rock thinking about our hidden desires.

Our minds often fantasize about our dreams, wishing with all its pea picking heart, that is if a mind has a heart, that something magical will occur and all our dreams will come true with no work, no effort, no persistence, just blissful success. End of story. Well, not quite. Let’s say you have an idea and you'd like to pursue it. And, that idea is to write the great American novel. Is it your passion? Are you willing to do whatever it takes to research, write, rewrite, and rewrite another 40 or 50 times, then submitted to agents and receive rejection notice after rejection notice, or have some unethical agent say you must send him or her, a check for representing you, of course, if you tome is published that amount will be deducted from the agencies fees. Sounds fishy to me. So before all that, you have to decide, above all else, do you enjoy writing, do you like creating a story more than you want to be a famous author. If the answer is yes, then just maybe you'll succeed. Motivation is never ever, ever, ever, giving up. Persistence is a word that's bandy around a lot. The key to success is based a lot on, do you love what you’re doing, is the natural urge there to chase after your dream not matter what. Ever wish you had a watermelon? Philosophically, it might just be easier
