SUMMER is HERE!!!

Finally it's summer! Finally I get to take a break and relax. I get to read if I want to. Write !if I want to. It doesn't really matter.... Because it's SUMMER!!! I'm so excited for this break. I'm already making way to many plans and dreaming of book accomplishments as well. Oh to be one of those stories about the woman who write her entire book in the summer while she was teaching. Ah, a girl can dream right? So I begin to dream and dream.
But as I dream, I am constantly looking at this 50 ways to take a break. I found it on Facebook or Pinterest, can't remember which now. But the ideas were so me that I couldn't resist saving the picture and dreaming of the summer. Yippee!!!! Summer is Here!!

One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

One of the most hardest things is to put on foot in front of the other when you feel like you haven't made a step forward in awhile. I admit it, I have been so busy lately that I haven't made the time to write. The time to write anywhere... My book hasn't been touched in a month or more. My journal hasn't been touched in about a month. My blog I have been slacking on. I have been writing enough on one day and then scheduling like crazy. 

I apologize. 

It's not me. It's my motivation. It's my dedication. It's my frustration. It's me out of a habit. 

They say everywhere you read, JUST WRITE. Do it daily. Do it as much as you can. I just finished Do Over by Jon Acuff. He said "When you refuse to practice today, it makes it harder to practice tomorrow. Weeds often grow strong the longer we wait to hustle." He is completely right. I mean look at my hustle on my writing and other areas of my life. 

Here is the first step, yet again. 

Here is one tiny waddle forward toward my dreams!
