You Are A Writer (So Start Acting Like One)

by Jeff Goins

we all long to “put a dent in the universe.”

YOU ALREADY KNOW WHO YOU ARE “All is not lost, all is not lost. Become who you are It happens once in a lifetime.” —SWITCHFOOT

I found my dream not by searching for it, but by submitting to what I had always hoped was true: I was, in fact, a writer. All I had to do was write. Anyone can do this. All it requires is a simple, scary solution: Believe you already are what you want to be. And then start acting like it.

Before others will believe what is true about you, you’ll have to believe it yourself.

“There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.” —ERNEST HEMINGWAY
