Nano Round-Up

The 2007 NanoWriMo is finally over. It was a long month. Looking back I see all the mistakes along the way that I let prevent me from making my goal. The most obvious was not sticking to my daily goal and thinking I could make it up the next day or the day after that. But the biggest thing in my way was me.

Considering it was my first attempt I don’t think I did badly. I ended up with 20,300 words. Almost half way to the 50,000 goal. That is the most ‘fiction’ I’ve written in some time; so while I feel bad about not reaching my goal, (among other things) I feel good in having accomplished that. I definitely plan on participating again next year.

Congratulations to all my BIW buddies who participated and reached new heights. Onward and forward!

    That’s a lot of words, and twice what I wrote! Congratulations. Lots of other folks simply think about writing. We actually do it. šŸ™‚

Stop Biting the Tail You’re Chasing

Tolerance
"No matter in what situations we find ourselves, when we don’t have so many opinions and preferences we naturally experience more peace of mind. We feel more agreeable, more comfortable, and more able to fit in with others. When we are more tolerant, not only do our minds’ stability and experience of meditation improve, but the conduct of our body, speech, and mind also improves because we stop being so reactive."
