“When I taught in a boy’s prep school, I used to talk to the boys who were trying to make up their minds as to what their careers were going to be. A boy would come to me and ask, ‘Do you think I can do this? Do you think I can do that? Do you think I can be a writer?’ ‘Oh,’ I would say, ‘I don’t know. Can you endure ten years of disappointment with nobody responding to you, or are you thinking that you are going to write a best seller the first crack? If you have the guts to stay with the thing you really want, no matter what happens, well, go ahead.’”
from Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth, with Bill Moyers

writing is a game of skill and chance, in which even the skilled might have to wait to get lucky.

Very well put my dear. I might have to write that one out and post it to my desk so I can remember that. Man thanks for the reminder. Sometimes I am impatient and I feel that I want it to fast, by it I mean success sometimes but also to be heard, to engage in a social dialogue. Anyways I really appreciate your comment I will be thinking on it for a lil bit
