-- Quote of the Day --  “… It always starts with that person reflected in the mirror. …Consistent practice builds new brain pathways. Eventually it becomes automatic, but you only get there with consistent regular practice. …New behavior takes time – and there is a certain amount of impatience with yourself and the process; I think it is really important to embrace the process. So be patient with your self. …Fear is an indicator of where our growing edge – I have some beliefs that are generating fear that are keeping me stuck. I like these acronyms for Fear: False Evidence Appearing Real – Finding Excuses and Reasons – Forgetting Everything is All Right. …Take time at the end of the day to write down what you are proud of, what you did well that day – it doesn’t matter what the accomplishment is to the brain, because what the brain hears is ‘I’m a success’ and this changes the thought patterns of your brain .” ~ Susan Reeve & Joan Breiner To...

She edits The Whirlwind Review , an online literary journal focusing on writing and spirituality ( www.writingthewhirlwind.net ). Her Writing as a Sacred Path Blog can be read at writingasasacredpath.blogspot.com . Animal Advocacy as a Writer What does being a vegetarian and an animal advocate this have to do with writing? My answer: Everything.  I’m not saying that every writer needs to start writing about animal rights, or that they should all become vegetarians. I’m just saying that, to be writers, we must have an awareness of animal suffering in the way that we must have an awareness of human suffering. It comes with the job, if you’re going to do the job right. Why do animals matter? And, more to the point of this blog, why do animals matter to...

-- Quote of the Day -- “… The opportunities have gotten bigger and better, but the biggest challenge for people is to get out of their own way – most of the time it is your self that is stopping you from going ahead; you have to get in the right frame of mind. …What ever you do it has to be measurable; if it can’t be measured then you are just throwing money away. Whoever you are advertising with, look at how they are going to be paid, do they get paid based on your success or are they looking to get paid up front and then you are on your own. I’m big on grassroots marketing – it is a way of giving back to and getting involved with a community. People get tied to you, they will want to support you because you are giving back to them.  It is a way to very inexpensively market your business…  Studies show that businesses that give back to their community usually do 30-40% more business than those who do not .” ~ Will Miller Today's quote was excerpted...
