Getting Started

Getting Started

The secret of getting ahead is getting started. —Mark Twain

I have procrastinated too long in writing. Where should I start? Do I write in order? What if no one likes it? What if I can’t get those words flowing? I can’t find a comfortable spot to write. Do I type or do I use pen and paper? I need to clean my office first. On and on the excuses went.

With the art of writing I became an award winning procrastinator. 

Now to divulge further let me tell you, when I asked God, my inner Spirit Guide, my greater power “what should I do?” I was facing some unrest in my soul and I knew tides were turning. I got a one word answer “WRITE”. WOW! God is asking me to write, asking me to tell my story. That is a big calling and one you do not want to fail. However fail I have because I have not been obedient to his calling due to fear. 

So today I throw that out the window and sit with my laptop upon my lap, in the living room, with a mess around me and three lazy dogs. I am not physically comfortable, but I do have a cuppa tea as my symbol of comfort (my security blanket, my wubba). 

Before I opened my document to begin typing on a blank page I randomly opened my Bible. Now I am a pen to paper type of gal so this typing thing is a challenge. I do open my Bible randomly when I sense the urge as I feel the energy guidance will direct me to read what I should read versus what I want to read. To hear what I need to hear versus what I want to hear.

 This is what the spirit gave me today... Psalm 32: 3

“When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all the day long.”

Read on to verse 8...

I best get busy. So here I go, to infinity and beyond, I am getting started.
