What Are You Waiting For?

The above quote by Brian W, Smith from the Virtual Cavalcade of Authors still resonates with me weeks later. It has helped motivate me to buckle down and do the work.

So, I share this quote with you. If you have been procrastinating instead of starting/finishing your goal, ask yourself why. Why are you putting off fulfilling your dream?

Visit the Cavalcade of Authors’ YouTube channel to hear the entire conversation and listen to the various other authors.
