Perseverance

“You must want to enough.  Enough to take all the rejections, enough to pay the price of disappointment and discouragement while you are learning.  Like any other artist, you are learning your craft- then you can add all the genius you like.”  Phyllis Whitney

This. Exactly.

If you want something badly enough (like getting your book published), you’ll never give up. You’ll take rejection and it’ll make you stronger. You’ll push your limits. You’ll go out and seek opportunities to make you better and you’ll keep going. Because that’s the only way to make your dreams come true. 🙂
