#AmWriting

The thing that no one tells you about following your passions: the road is twisty, rife with peril and numerous obstacles, and it seems to stretch on endlessly at times.

Most people view success as a binary: you're either successful (you've made it!) or you've failed. The truth is that it's a constant struggle. Every day that you persevere is a WIN. Every day that you write, that you put words on a page, is a WIN.

One of the most difficult things to do as a struggling writer is to reframe that entire concept of success. Because the milestones keep moving further into the distance.

See each day that you write as a success. Keep writing. Keep striving.
