Day 3:

Today I read some of my other book “Don Quixote”…

The first few pages alone were incredibly insightful and taught me something about myself.

The writer of the story is scared that, with who he is and where he came from, people would not read his book. The book that he spent so long writing, people would not read it because the stories of that time were so eloquent and philosophical. He wondered if anyone would read it and judge it because it “didn’t stack up”. However, “Don Quixote” is one of the greatest fictions ever written.

To think, such a great story and introspection of a novel could have been scraped due to one person’s lack of self confidence and doubt in himself. This is the amazing lesson taught to me in those few pages.

I am my biggest critic.

This cannot stop me from doing what I love, I must move forward and accomplish my goals whether I believe in myself or not. Believing in myself can come as a by product of my work and my affirmations towards myself.

And who knows, maybe by silencing that inner voice of doubt and unreason, I might just write a masterpiece of my own.
