Great post , Judith! Your message today I can apply to my writing goals. I tend to beat myself up when I deviate from writing. One day goes by, then two , and then three and before I know it I'm feeling like I can never catch . up. Thanks for the encouragement.
Glad my message resonates, Diana. Subduing or even better, eliminating that negative self-talk frees up so much energy that we can use to write new stories!
I believe this is the key to persistence – calmly returning to whatever task you've been derailed from and continuing, without undermining yourself through negative self-talk.
Research has shown that persistence is one of the qualities strongly correlated with success.

Great post!
Thanks for stopping by, Sarah. It isn't always easy but it is always the long term best option.
