Flip The Script

TODAY'S QUOTE:
"It's never too late—in fiction or in life—to revise." ... Nancy Thayer

Change can occur at any given time, and progress at any speed. Fact is, once it hits full stride it often accelerates past any planned destination, ending up wherever fate decrees. That's not necessarily a bad thing, since we all too often underestimate our own potential. Fear and doubt are common denominators, keeping us stationary when any movement at all would improve our situation in some fashion.

What is seems so much safer to some than what might be; the demon known is preferred to the one imagined. Plodding on in a rut becomes nothing more than habit, done without forethought then easily forgotten. We often program ourselves to keep all expectations low, if we can be bothered to have any at all. We forget that whatever is written is completely controlled by the author. If someone else is doodling in your margins or altering events to suit their own agenda, then gracefully gather up your shit and set it right.   

If it's not penned to suit the plot you created then edit, revise, or flip the script altogether. Being little more than the sum total of things that happen to you isn't ideal; cast yourself a better part in the story that is your life. Begin again until what you wear suits your soul. Think about it... Let it ride... Then decide!!!
