Write Your Story: Stop Trying to Make It Good

One of the primary reasons creatives stay stuck is that we are trying hard to make something “good” I tell aspiring authors I coach that the fastest way to write something terrible is to sit down hoping to write something amazing. Something profound. Something worth reading. Instead, if you sit down intending to tell the truth, the truth will take you exactly where you need to go. It might be messy. It might be painful. It might not inspire millions or make you famous. (Or to your great horror, it might). But it might become something more than you could have even dreamed about — because it was beyond your consciousness. Let go of trying to be good / make it good. Instead follow the inspiration, tell the truth, and trust what unfolds. Host: Ally Fallon // @allyfallon // allisonfallon.com
