May We Motivate You?

As the month of May draws to a close, we here at TSR would like to offer up some motivation - and a little humor! Let's start the second half of 2018 with a kick in the creative "oomph" and a chuckle or two . . . .


"YOUR INTUITION ALREADY KNOWS
WHAT IT WANTS TO WRITE,
SO GET OUT OF THE WAY."
(Ray Bradbury)


"There are a million talented writers out there
who are unpublished only because
they stop writing when it gets hard.
Don't do that."
(Gillian Flynn)


"UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 
HEALTHY STRIVING AND PERFECTIONISM 
IS CRITICAL 
TO LAYING DOWN THE SHIELD 
AND PICKING UP YOUR LIFE." 
(Dr. Brene Brown)


"My theory on housework is,
if the item doesn't multiply, smell,
catch fire, or block the refrigerator door,
let it be. No one else cares.
Why should you?
(Erma Bombeck)


"IF I WROTE A DR. SEUSS-ESQUE BOOK
ABOUT THE RESEARCH I DO FOR MY NOVELS
IT WOULD BE TITLED
'OH, THE THINGS YOU NOW KNOW.'
IT WOULD BE TOTALLY INAPPROPRIATE
FOR CHILDREN."
(Mindy McGinnis)


"MY WISH FOR YOU IS THAT
YOU FEEL NO NEED 
TO CONSTRICT YOURSELF 
TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLE
COMFORTABLE."
(Ta-Nehisi Coates)
