You (...I wonder, sometimes, if it is about control. You (and I) worry about the factors we cannot control: the marketplace, the critics, etc. Is this a distraction from what we can control? Is it really just a fear about putting our innermost-created work out in the world?<br /><br />Foodfor thought!Clea Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10810838253598050028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4396875931357506685.post-36956323933080169082009-05-16T23:18:00.000-07:002009-05-16T23:18:00.000-07:00C:

Gee I don't know anything about that. <br /><br />But... one thing I also know...ironically sounds simple and platitudinous (love that word) ... but, the reality is... there is no price to pay. No lesson, no price, no nothin'. That's actually the scariest part, because if there ain't no price to pay, then ... <br /><br />... you got it. What's the fear really about? Now it gets messy. <br /><br />J :)Jeff Lyonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07202755992217117670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4396875931357506685.post-22429681136858852542009-05-16T12:39:00.000-07:002009-05-16T12:39:00.000-07:00Congratulations!!

What a great feeling that must be to love your clean, edited, ready for the presses ms!!<br /><br />I know that conversation that you are describing all too well, and I love the idea of replacing the worry with a more positive thought or image! And I believe it works. I've seen it work! But it has to be practiced.<br /><br />Recently I was worrying to my husband about my career and he kindly said, "I get it. I get it. I know how hard things are and all the things that could go wrong. I understand. Now why don't you start picturing all the things that could go right?"<br /><br />And he's right. He does and it works for him! I am going start to as well.Gina Sorellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15651102053639300887noreply@blogger.com
