Pen to Paper: Commit to Greatness (P26)

Presented below is a thought from me on writing, a quote from someone else on writing, an excerpt from that writer, and a discipline/habit to implement…

We will be focusing on committing to greatness today.

A Thought

“It is in the unseen, the woodshed, where no one is watching or witnessing the hours of writing and hard work, that produces the greatness in us, and in our stories.”

– Austin Alford

A Quote

“Every great novelist, has written, millions of words that will never be read.”

– Erwin McManus (Author & Speaker)

An Excerpt 

From Mind Shift by Erwin McManus…

“I’ve learned that you don’t need an audience to prepare for the biggest moments of your life. Commit to greatness when you have no audience. Discipline yourself and prepare yourself to be the best at what you do. 

Live as if today you may be given the greatest opportunity of your life. Be ready to step up when the call comes.

A Discipline/Habit to Implement

Let’s commit to an hour long writing session this week.

Whether you are working on a song, book, script, poem or other form of storytelling. Book a time in your calendar, a one hour session, to get in the woodshed and create!

Commit to greatness in the unseen. 

Put Pen to Paper this week and have fun!
