Truth is, a man can push through damn near anything long as he’s got a good reason to keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Life changing paragraph from C. S. Lewis

[Essayful @SeeCathedrals]

“Abandon the idea that you are ever going to finish. Lose track of the 400 pages and write just one page for each day.

Just set one day’s work in front of the last day’s work. That’s the way it comes out. And that’s the only way it does.”

— John Steinbeck, 1962

An important change that you can make today is to create, not consume.

Consuming is easy, but unfulfilling.

Creating takes more effort, but is infinitely more rewarding.
