N is for Naysayers


Twenty-Six Days of Creative Inspiration



We all need to be encouraged. It's important to have friends and colleagues who support and inspire you, especially in creative endeavors. Goodness knows there is a lot of the r- word (rejection not radicchio) in the world of writing. Hand holding, back patting, and a shoulder to cry on are essential parts of our writer's toolbox.

What about the dream stealers? You know them, the ones who roll their eyes and tell you your dream is too big and unattainable. Yes, these are the naysayers.

You don't need armor, or the sword Excalibur to fight off these negative nillies who usually speak from a position of jealously or envy. Fight the poison seed of doubt they plant in your brain with the most powerful weapons of all, optimism and hope. 


Morph doubt into a challenge.

Yes, you can.
Yes, you will.

"If you can dream it, you can do it."
Walt Disney
