The other day I took a Grit Assessment and began reading “Mastery” by Robert Greene which helped me identify my passion, and my uniqueness.  I began thinking about my current employment and realized I wasn’t utilizing all my gifts and talents, that this is just a job. I don’t want another ‘job’ I want a position that I’m passionate about, that allows me to utilize my gift of creative writing.  Which is why this position appealed to me.

So there is a constant battle to remain true to self vs believing the popularity that mastery brings.  Try avoiding emotional extremes by finding a way to balance optimism with doubt. Primarily, because the natural world will creep in and this can deter the original mind from its path.  I’m able to express my “deepest self” when a life jarring event occurs.  My son’s death, the breakup of a relationship, an argument or disagreement – all lead me to write about that event or write something in a fictional manner.  At some point you will find authenticity.
