Our days are measured by minutes and tasks by lists, so a story evolves by writing down a word, one after the other. I'd better get busy.

Baby steps keeps me moving forward, which gives me those little rewards of success that I accomplished 'something' toward my goal (whatever that goal may be).Kaye Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530735658588595790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-91014636923063557282020-02-03T01:32:49.964-06:002020-02-03T01:32:49.964-06:00Excellent advice, Doris.
