Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up. – Thomas Edison I’m not trying to invent anything so groundbreaking as electricity. This saying applies to all goals. There are so many other responsibilities, worthwhile efforts, and entertaining possibilities competing for our limited time. It’s easy to let other endeavors become bigger priorities and gradually bump your goal away without actually ever deciding to give up. Stay focused and accountable. My writing critique group (that's us in the picture with a few of our published books) is wonderful to keep me on track. Every month I submit 25 new pages and receive feedback from six other writers, each with unique backgrounds and strengths. I’m so grateful for all of them. It’s a bonus that I love their writing. What are my writing goals? Keep writing, keep improving, and sell more books. What are your goals and what do you do to keep focused on them?
