“So I redefined what success looks like for me, to mean that when I created any work born from my true creative voice and shared that work with the world, that was a success. Regardless of the outcome.”

Powerful James. Powerful because I know what it’s like to be in the clutches of what the world calls successful. I know you can write a good piece, a great piece, but if you let the doubts of ‘will others think so?’ into your thinking. Bam. There goes everything.

The struggle I have is that I become missing in action. I think I’m coming back, and it’s been a while. But I will slip away. And it could be for a while. It’s not that my readers are not important. I think it’s something I learned to just regroup, to work through whatever has its tentacles around me.

I appreciate your recent blogs. They are born out of someone who admits his struggles and then fights his way through them. Keep going James.

James, this is a fantastic article! #1 resonates with me because this is where the fun of writing is. I feel unfettered when I’m free writing. I’m more likely to say the risky thing – you know, the one you wonder if you should say.

I’ve found most of the time you should.

It’s better to shock people than it is to bore them. That takes care of #2 and #3. Here’s to authentic writing in our own voices. Sounds like success to me.

I can totally relate, especially with number 3. With my own blog and writing I had gotten so caught up with people pleasing that I lost my voice somewhere down the line. I’m only recently coming to the same realization you had!

Thank you for a great post, James. The hardest challenge for me is perfectionism. Consciously, I know it does not exist, it is a yearning of my imagination. Still, I want every piece to be perfect, the first time. I want the writing to be what I have pictured in my mind, the first time. I want to edit effortlessly, the first time. For these reasons—among many—my projects often feel like chores rather than recreation. I love to write and want it to feel like recreation again. I also have to redefine success for myself. Success begins within me. “Out there somewhere” is too volatile; I need to celebrate the small steps and accomplishments. You gave me a lot to think about.

Unnecessary second comma in the meme. Sorry, it bothers me. Grammar police.

Thanks for this, Bryan. Sometimes, as creatives, we have our down days, but we need to just keep pushing forward and onward in our craft.
