Well…

  • if you want to be a writer, you need to write.
  • if you want to be an artist, you need to paint or draw
  • if you want to be a guitarist you need to play the guitar
  • if you want to be a singer you need to sing
  • if you want to be a songwriter you need to write songs

It is the starting block of any creative venture, but so often one that is never used. We sit back and wait, we plan, we plot we dream of what might one day… but the only solution is to actually get up and do something. What ever you want to do, you need to actually do it. So close the browser, and pick up that pen, or those brushes, of that notepad, or that musical instrument and begin to create. Go and become.
