Keeping It Simple

I must confess that 2011 has truly been a challenging year for me as a writer and I'm certain many more would agree with me. The goal to remain focus and stay the course to write until the project is complete has been tough, but I managed to finally pull through and complete my novel titled "Guilty Feet".

It's quite difficult at times trying to find balance and making time to market your products as well. One mistake that I have learned in my marketing approach is that a "book will not sell itself". You have to network by making connections and keeping them informed about your projects and future projects as well. It helps to join a local writer's support group as well.

It's easy to get discouraged at times in life, but just remember that success doesn't come easily. Just remember to put a great deal of time, effort and determination to achieve your life goals and you will be successful.

Place Yourself In His Hands

We have been asleep long enough and it's time for us to wake up! Why do we fret and worry? Why are we so concerned with the circumstances around us? Why is there a feeling of hopelessness in us right now, a feeling that this life is too much for us, that it's too difficult to cope with the situations around us?

It isn't you and I that the world wants to hold back and smother. It is the life and light and love of God that shine from us that the world is trying to quench. When we began to understand that, we will no longer be moved by the circumstances around us. Our circumstances are to be overcome in Him, so keep your eyes and trust in only Him.  Victory will be for you and I.
