Monday Again...again
Okay so I know I said this already “Monday again’, but I was a bit busy then...now, not so much, its not so easy being a professional you know...it takes hard work and dedication....but enough about me. So what am I to write about? Don’t know! I can figure it out as I go along really, I am a writer but I choose not to pursue a career in writing for fear that a million other people try to do that everyday and fail.
Yes, failure in this case, has got me down...that and I really don't think I am that good of a writer. What makes a good writer anyhow? Is it Sensationalism?
Is it a life story or profession to write upon?Is it a savvy sense of punctuation use? Or is it all in a haiku? I don't know and I haven't tried to figure it out....yet. It’s kind of like mutual funds and the stock market....blind as a bat and not wanting to get involved. I am of the type that simply hands over her money to the bank to simply get them out of her voicemail about benefits and savings plans....I SAY SHUT UP already! Open me a bloody mutual fund account and let me live dam it! What if I (and I hate to be a simpleton of similes but…) got hit by a train tomorrow? I mean...what in the hell would a mutual fund do for me...as if I am going to work until I am 75 anyhow? Someone is going to spend all that money when I croak at 85 and it won't be me! Imagine the banks financial coo, working all my life to save, what a crock!
So its kind of like that with writing...I write to soothe my emotions...but for the greater good of man...I can not be bothered...I am insecure. Okay two things you learnt so far, I am insecure (who isn’t really)and I have fear of failing…hmm sound familiar? A lot of people are like me. Wanting to make something of themselves or share with the world something that they are good at but not being able to pull it off out of fear. FEAR is a major foe of many, and I think the only way to combat it is like this... What are the positives I have described so far? I have a talent, but I don't want to exploit it, out of fear, what are my major obstacles? If I really think about it, time is a major obstacle. Time to research what goes into becoming a writer...and getting my work eventually published. So I have two dilemmas there, time and knowledge. If I donated a weekend to visiting some publishing sites, or visiting local periodical publishers I could get somewhere with that. Time also comes from having to part with something else... what could take up so much time?
Work! My dedication to my career limits my personal goals that could fulfill other areas of my life! Things that could make my life fuller! Quality of life and getting a handle on it, I need time to work on personal achievements. I think I need to work on my research of my topic, how to publish personal work, and make time to enjoy working on this task. Then I can facilitate a better quality of life. The equation seems simple, can I put it to work?
