Commitment is vital to survival.It's imarotpnt to finish what you start, even if you write a temporary ending and put the manuscript away for awhile. Unfinished projects drain creative energy. Too many people start something, write a few other words, see a new idea, and it becomes, oooh, shiny! but nothing is finished.As someone who earns my living writing, I MUST put butt in chair and meet my commitments to my contracts AND to myself. To my contracts because otherwise I'll be homelesss and hungry. To myself, because meeting commitments is a sign of self-respect, as well as respect for those with whom I'm dealing. If I don't respect my own work, I don't give anyone else a reason to respect it, either.I've also learned (the hard way), that some of the best work comes on the days when it's hardest to push through. it's true the break-down sometimes comes before the break-through.There are many, many talented writers out there. But the ones who will survive under the career and passion of writer are the ones who learn how to create and maintain a commitment.Devon Ellingtonb4s last blog post ..Like? 0
