You Are A Writer (So Start Acting Like One)

by Jeff Goins

In The War of Art, Steven Pressfield

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

Someone put it like this: “If you’re ‘one in a million,’ and the world is full of seven billion people, that means there are seven thousand people just like you.”

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

“Talent alone cannot make a writer. There must be a man behind the book.” —RALPH WALDO EMERSON

I found that when you stop seeking public approval, something interesting happens: People will be deeply attracted to your work. They won’t be able to help it.
