Take a break: Often
just taking a rest and focusing on something you enjoy during your leisure
time. Maybe you love gardening. Perhaps taking a brisk walk is something that’s
relaxing to you. Just find an activity that will refresh you and recharge your batteries.
·
Look into past experiences: You may have treasure troves of story gems from your
childhood. Think of famous authors like Earl Hamner who wrote Spencer’s Mountain, the book on which The Waltons was based. He wrote
incredible, sensitive, riveting stories about real life events from his
childhood.
·
A remarkable
event? Perhaps there was an
occurrence in your past that was incredible. Was there something that made you
exceptionally happy? Was there an event that changed your life or your
attitude? Was there an obstacle you had to overcome? You may think your childhood was boring, but others may view it differently. You could have unbelievable tidbits just waiting for you to discover them.
·
What about your children? You may have young children who constantly entertain
you with their antics. You may be able to create an entertaining, informative
book, which includes some to their quotes, or deeds.

Remember Teddy Roosevelt: Most people know that Teddy Roosevelt was one of our
most exuberant leaders. He was curious and colorful. He knew that we must all believe
in our abilities. In fact he said, “Believe
in yourself and you’re half way there.”
That’s not to say you have to be boastful, but you’d be wise to remember
that you are capable of amazing feats. You are the master of your destiny. You
may surprise yourself with what you can achieve.
