“When your ego requires someone else’s help, you should give up. If your ego is larger than your opposition, you should give up. If you want all the power and control, regardless of your ego, you should give up. If you don’t give up, you can be stopped.” #writing

Motivation is never generalized. To be useful, it must be specifically targeted. #life

I’m still fighting my way through the deep snow of writing the latest book–or so it feels. I’m about 1/4 of the way through the first draft (not draught). Granted, I’m not pushing myself with this book and don’t have a self-deadline. #writing
