Sir Godfrey Gregg
You are what you do not what you want to do.
My life is based on my actions, not my thoughts or plans.
In the past, I would tell myself that I wanted to write and, truthfully, I never made time for it. Now, I do write, every day, and I can proudly say that I have made time to do what I want. If you truly want to be doing something, you will find the time to do so.
Think about it: What do you really want to be doing? Why aren’t you doing that thing?
I used to never make time to write because I thought I would enjoy browsing Google and watching Netflix more than I would enjoy writing.
Those activities that give instant gratification won’t make you happier in the long run. Every time I see a piece of my writing I feel so satisfied and proud of myself, every single time. If I see the same article multiple times, I don’t feel anything. I don’t feel guilty or like this is the wrong thing for me to be doing when I write. I am no longer a watcher, I am a creator. I am a writer.
