It’s my rest day — so I wanted to share this quote I heard today that struck a chord with me…
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” – Roosevelt

First of all I would like to say excellent blog!
I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear
your mind prior to writing. I’ve had a difficult time
clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts
out there. I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems
like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted simply
just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints?
Thank you!
