If you write a hundred short stories and they're all bad, that doesn't mean you've failed. You only fail if you stop writing."
- Ray Bradbury
Replay times in your life when you quit a job, a project, or a relationship. What did you learn by stopping back then? What regrets or feelings of relief do you retain today?
Return to the situations and write different choices. Would another choice make a difference now? What have you learned about persistence since then? Have you discovered how to stop in the moment when intuition kicks in? Consider what you did . . . or didn't.
Keep writing into blue sky notions. Let ideas percolate.
