Don't Be a Writer, Be Writing
A Monday Motivation from William Faulkner
The Importance of Action in Writing
William Faulkner's famous quote, "Don't be a writer, be writing," encapsulates the essence of what it means to be a true author. It's not about the desire to express oneself but rather the act of putting words on paper (or screen) and letting them flow. You never know the fate of a book once it's written – it may sink into obscurity or soar to great heights. But the important thing is to write, to keep writing, and to not be afraid to put your thoughts and ideas out there.
Monday Motivation
As we begin a new week, let Faulkner's words serve as a reminder that we can overcome any challenges that come our way. Just like writing, life is a journey filled with both successes and setbacks. But if we keep moving forward, taking action, and never giving up on our dreams, we can achieve anything we set our minds to.
So, don't be a writer. Be writing. Embrace the challenges, the uncertainty, and the joy of the writing process. And who knows, your words may just soar to great heights and inspire others along the way.
