We overestimate what we can accomplish in a short period of time

We expect too much too soon

We become discouraged when our lofty expectations are not met.

Slow down

Stay the course

Life is a marathon, not a sprint

I need an editor that can translate a few sentences into Spanish with correct grammar as well for a book I am writing (my Spanish is rusty). I’m willing to pay for services. #editor #spanish #spanisheditor #translator

Disney when are you going to come out with a Hispanic Disney princess? Specifically a Puerto Rican one? I’ve been waiting since I was five! #Disney #diversitymatters #latinx #PuertoRico

Twitter universe - I’m feeling discouraged with my writing and the whole process/community. Please comment with pictures of your pets to make me smile. #amwriting #writingcommmunity #author #authorlife #SaturdayMorning

Is there anyone out there in the twitter universe that is trying to build their own author platform and business from scratch? I’d like some company and someone serious to share this path with. Even better a mentor. #amwriting #authors #WritingCommunity #writers

I just shortened the ending to my memoir by 10,000 words. Here’s to killing your darlings and making sure you have a tight ending. #WritingCommunity #writing #author

[J.P. Padilla @JPPadilla16]

#WritingCommunity be courageous enough to write your truth and erase your doubts. Someone needs to read your words that are covered in ink. Someone out there is waiting to read what you wrote. You just don’t know it yet. Or who, but that’s okay for right now. Just write.

[J.P. Padilla @JPPadilla16]

@ashleyhblake This is so true and you explained it with elegance and grace. ✨✨✨

[J.P. Padilla @JPPadilla16]

@KSekouM @debraj112 This is a brilliant idea. ✨

[J.P. Padilla @JPPadilla16]

@glee_writes @W_Angels_Wings You look adorable! Be proud!

[J.P. Padilla @JPPadilla16]

@ArndtAuthor Yes!!! We have deep rooted issues. Our lives can be cliché- just not our writing.
