I also keep a journal with my victories in it, and some defeats that I eventually recognize as instructive. <br />Maybe it would help me to be more granular about recording, as it has helped me with writing fiction. When I write fiction, I keep track of my word-count meticulously and track how I'm doing each month. That helps me realize that I am slowly getting closer to my goal, even though it is taking me a while. (I'm still in the nascent stage, though, so I've a long way to go.)Michaela Stephenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04163084369311708249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478273273186623663.post-73440796746747652892016-04-11T16:11:38.771-07:002016-04-11T16:11:38.771-07:00One of the blessings of my life has been to meet p...One of the blessings of my life has been to meet people through blogging that have helped me. You are certainly one. I enjoy reading your insights and perspectives. It's almost as good as having a conversation. Thanks for continuing to share through this blog. <br /><br />As for failures and successes, I've come to believe that most of our growth is in such small increments that we don't recognize it until we look back ten or more years and see where we were. Keeping a journal has helped me see just how far I've come and how my core values and goals have remained unchanging over the years. I'm still pretty far behind many others, but this isn't a race to see who gets there first; we all win as we cross the finish line having faithfully obeyed and endured to the end. Keep up the good work.Rozy Lasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019413665136390175noreply@blogger.com
