The Writer's Launch Pad Workshop Presented by Grey Wolfe Publishing

Instead of focusing on our mission and purpose of our lives, we often focus on trivial pursuits or meaningless tasks which take away form our true mission; frequently that means our writing suffers.

Part of why we do this is because we allow fear to dictate our actions.  There is no need to build a super-structure launch pad if you don't plan on lifting off into space.  Focus on the mission and the journey that will enhance your writing goals rather than the minutia of the day and you will enjoy tremedous success in achieving your dreams.

How often have you found yourself on the edge of something great, only to be stalled in taking action because of Risk and Fear?  Writing is arout Risk!  Risk is about Fear!  How do we take our greatest writing fears and transform them into assets?  It can be as easy as climbing over the Risk-Taking, Fear-Breaking Wall of Opportunity and understanding that what's on the other side is Creative Abundance.

Some of the most importnt things you can do to move your writing forward is to discover your mission and purpose, as well as examining and completing past rejection expeirences that hold you back from creating momentum.  Often, we judge rejections with our creativity to be negative and detrimental to growth.  However, there are benefits to experiencing rejection, and in this workshop, you will learn how to maximize that negative experience and push forward toward Creative Abundance.

Learning about wher eyour most empowering motivations lie will help to propel you away from past frustration and assist in creating positive results with your writing goals.  In this workshop, you'll learn how to master procrastination and pupblic opinion, and utilize emotions that come up as the Launch Pad that will propel you toward success with your writing.
