Somebody recently asked me, “If you have been working so hard for so long, why hasn’t it gotten you anywhere?”
All I could do was blink and reply, “I don’t… know.”
If it can’t be counted,
sold,
measured,
or monetized —
how does one quantify results?
And is it possible that…
actively pursuing personal growth through action
and a love of the game
is life’s greatest reward?
Are external results in the hands of our higher power?
On this week’s episode of the One Line, One Love podblog Jay and I explore plumping up the dimensionality of characters.
As always, comments and questions are welcome below.
Wait wait wait — it hasn’t “gotten you anywhere”? Says who? OMG, Gail, you do so much, you touch so many, you keep trying new things — you are AWESOME! You ROCK!
What, this person was critical because you never made the cover of Time or appeared in whatzeirname’s “100 Richest People”? You, dear lady, are Gail Freakin’ Boenning! And you Got There!
That person's comment made me sad...for them. What a constrained life that only counts material success as valuable. Keep shining your light, Gail!
