You admire a character for trying more than for their successes.
Friends, I see you out there.
Telling your stories.
Taking your photos.
Painting your canvases.
Crafting your world.
Exploring new places.
Writing your blog.
We are all cheering in the stands because we love to see you try.
So keep on!
Keep on telling your story and hitting publish!
Now tell me, what are you trying these days?
XO
PS This quote was tweeted in 2011 by Emma Coats, as part of Pixar’s 22 rules of storytelling. I heard it again this week in the midst of a writing course I’m taking. It was a pleasant reminder to continue to try new ideas, and not to worry so much about whether or not they actually work. 🙂
Thanks for the encouragement!
I always need encouragement to keep on trying, so I thought I would pass it along! SO glad you found it helpful! 🙂 XOXO
Thanks, Allison!
I love story-telling and lots of people love my stories.
But not all. *sighs*
I need to concentrate on the ones who do love my stories and realize I can only please some, never all!
Thanks, again!
YES Katharine! I also keep telling myself that sometimes the stories I need to tell are for my benefit and not the world’s. If the world benefits too, great! That’s a bonus. Cheers to all storytelling!!! XOXO
This is a beautiful thing of encouragement! I recently wrote a very personal article about my fight with mental abuse and it was beautiful, and it was posted today…this was exactly what I needed to see.
Cheers to you DeAnna for being so brave! XOXO
What a great reminder to keep on keeping on. Thank you.
