How to Improve Your Writing Today…
Writing (though a rough Uneven and bumpy road), doesn’t have to be complicated. It is a muscle that if used improves. Write here. Write now. Just write. Edit later.
Write something everyday and you’ll get done. That’s one of the most important advice I received and adopted while doing my dissertation.
It worked
It worked! I wrote everyday and before long I had finished my research; published a peer reviewed journal article on the Leadership Challenge; published 2 books on Success Strategies; and am onto my 3rd inspirational book titled GreenLight. Woohoo! Writing (though a rough Uneven and bumpy road), doesn’t have to be complicated. It is a muscle that if used improves. Write here. Write now. Just write. Edit later.
Jessica Stillman wrote How to Radically Improve Your Writing in Under 2 Minutes In summary she recommended:
- Delete the word “that“; which we often use but is unnecessary.
- Delete the words “I think“. Doing so strengthens your sentences.
- Avoid words ending in “ing“.
- Write short sentences. Short paragraphs. Keep paragraphs to less than three sentences. Yea I know’ that‘s hard for some (here goes ‘that’ word again).
- Shrink your opening sentence.
I intend to follow her advice and I hope you do too. So adopt 1, 2, or a few… and improve your writing today.
Cheers!

Looking Back…Your Help to Move Ahead
I decided to enroll in Wordpress university. Now looking back it’s one of the best decisions I made
To Move Ahead I value your help.
At the start of 2016 I decided to take the plunge into a Blog Renewal. I started my blog back in 2011 with only a few posts a year. My goal sparked, I decided to enroll in wordpress university. Now looking back it’s one of the best decisions I made. I became fully conversant with managing my blog and sharing my thoughts on success, goals, personal development, writing, and more. Even though there is a ton more to learn, I am pleased with my achievement this year.
To you my readers I say THANKS! Thank you for following me. Thank you for participating through your valuable insights. Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!
As we step into a new year and a fresh chapter in our lives my desire remains to inspire because I have been inspired. Will you help me in sharing your preference on topics I should write about? What would you like to hear more of? I truly value your input and insights.
Cheers!

Writing: The Thing To Do…
Visions Martyred…
Look closely. What do you see? Look again.
Dreams
That inner feeling that quietly tugs at your heart. Look closely. Listen quietly. You will hear. Les Brown promoted the saying that the grave is filled with dreams that were never realized.
For years my mom wanted to write her story. She wrote on notepads, pieces of paper, then typewriter, then started reaching for the computer. A journey that lasted decades throughout her life. A journey that was never to be fulfilled. My sister too-like a Martyr stricken by the ravishes of cancer, dreamed of telling her story but like my mom, she too passed away with it in her heart quietly waiting. She accomplished much yet still had that silent dream that was never fulfilled.
Today I write to inspire you, you, and you to go after your dreams, goals and aspirations. Make them real before it’s too late. Don’t wait until the new year…start today. Look back. Reflect. Connect the dots. Create that driving vision. Then Act. It does not have to be perfect. Just start the journey today before it all Vanish.
Cheers!
