Effort.

“Some people dream of worthy accomplishments while others stay awake and do them.”

This is on the calendar right next to my computer. After I took a look at the Tally I put up the other day I realized I needed to put more effort into getting what I want out of life. No one is going to hand things to me, and they shouldn’t. I think that if a person has to work hard for what they want, they’ll value it that much more when they get it.

Then again, very often I see people get what they want just by asking, and not by actually working for it. Maybe I should try that.

Dear Universe,
I would dearly love to have a successful writing career that would include several bestsellers, large advances, and critical acclaim for being a fabulous storyteller.

Thanks,
Sasha

What do you think? Will it work?

  1. If it DOES work, you will let us know won’t you?

    Till then, I’m gonna stick to the work :D


  2. If it works, you guys will be the first to hear! :hehe:


  3. You are a hard worker, sweetie! (But asking sure won’t hurt!)


  4. asking is good but sug, ain’t no one gonna come knocking on your door asking if you’ve got a manuscript to sell.
    you’ve asked the universe for something, now act like it’s just a matter of time until the universe answers. ;)


  5. Sometimes that is easier said then done, just know that in life you are not the only person who thinks "What the hell am I going to do with the rest of my life!!! AND WHEN DOES IT START!" That at least gives me comfort.LOL
    I like to think that good things happen to good people, so your turn WILL come!


  6. I’ve been working hard! Thanks for the kick in the pants people! :hehe:
