It is Wednesday and helping to host the Writer’s Quotes Wednesday Writing Challenge (#WQWWC) this week here.
Quote #1
“In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.”
Here is my response for the first quote:
Quote #2
Charli Mills provided this quote to Marsha to be used for this week:
“The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never score.”~Bill CopelandCharli Mills added, “The trouble with not having a vision is that you score goals on someone else’s field. Goals begin with a vision the way journeys start with a destination. Living with purpose motivates me. My vision strikes a balance a balance between being a writer and doing writerly tasks.Therefore, the goals I set guide me toward my vision of what a fulfilling writer’s life means to me. It’s self-actualization.”~Charli MillsHere is my response for the second quote:
Quote #3
“Life is too short to climb one stair at a time.”
~Anonymous

I love your taking stairs more than one at a time. My husband always does that and leaves me in the dust. Then he gets to the top and has to wait for me. LOL. It’s like the cars that pass everyone on the road, then get caught at the stoplight until everyone catches up with them. I love when that happens to someone else, but hate it to happen to me. I feel so silly. 🙂 Thanks again for hosting this week, Yvette.

Hi Marsha / and the stairs quote could have another part-/ like times we might need to stop and catch our breath – or times we need to go back down and maybe start over
Hahah
And hope your move and unpacking is going great
Peace and grace to you and Vince

Thanks, Yvette. We have most of the stuff we need inside, and filled up Cindy’s garage and part of ours. Yikes!

Hi Charli – your comment about feeling good to be quoted reminded me of another Charly – the Charly Priest who is the Spanish Poet blogger and a few years ago he reminded readers to sometimes use their own quotes – now of course a written with loads of original ideas wouod suggest that – hahah – and he did a fine job of using his own quotes – and it did not feel like pride or arrogance on his part; instead, his author side was just reminding folks that we can have some original and fresh ideas and our own quotes might need to make it into posts more
And in a way – maybe that is what I sort of did here with my little snippets under the photos
—
Anyhow – for you to humbly note how it feels good to be quoted shows a lot about your greatness – if I may say that – your love for writing and then your humbleness with being quoted – that joy and appreciation is priceless and often lost as people advance in their career – so cheers to that
Oh and the quote was pretty darn good too so it needed to be added and I can see why Marsha sent it me for this week.
And sadly I did not have time to look in my archives or I might have found some goal posts and field photos to connect to the quote even more – but I found a recent photo that worked.
Okay / hope your month is going well and good day to ya

All great quotes. Walking up the stairs is probably pointless unless there’s something you want at the top, and if there is, it’s worth working towards it. 🙂

That was a tasty thought to add Norah
Because how often people climb stairs maybe not knowing why or because society subtly had them climbing or the rat race and what not – I feel like I could explore a few angles from what you just said there –
And wishing you a great rest of your day
