Keep It Moving

Posted by T.S.Garp


You must keep doing that thing you do, keep being you, keep trying, keep your dreams alive, keep running, keep walking, keep jumping, keep your heart going, keep writing if you're a writer, keep making music if you play and sing, keep snapping photographs if you love taking pictures, keep filming if you love filmmaking, keep drawing if you're an artist, and keep loving - T.S.Garp

By nature, I keep moving, man. My theory is, be the shark. You've just got to keep moving. You can't stop - Brad Pitt

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths - Walt Disney

Stay focused, go after your dreams and keep moving toward your goals - LL Cool J

Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit - Conrad Hilton

Be Creative And Live

Posted by T.S.Garp


This is your time, your moment, and your year to be the free creative person you were born to be. Don't hold back, don't be put off by others, and don't wait too long. You must seize the opportunity to do more, to create, and make things happen. Keep your vision, your dreams, and your goals on the cutting edge of tomorrow - T.S.Garp

Reading and Writing

Posted by T.S.Garp


All writers should read as much as they can. I love to read and recently I have been on a medical leave of absence for several months, between watching films, reading/writing is my best pastime. My postings/updates might be running late. Keep reading, the more you read and write, the better your writing is and imagination - T.S.Garp

Go The Distance!

Posted by T.S.Garp

Had a great time during Earth Day celebration. I just completed a 20 mile trail run surrounded by nature, mountains, and trees! Met awesome people! Ayn Rand, philosopher & playwrighter, said “a creative person is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others,” and that is true for me too as I am motivated to always continue the climb, always have the desire to learn and achieve, always do your best, always live for the joy and experience of it. Believe in yourself and you are already half way there!

Never Let It Go

Posted by T.S.Garp



Make this month of January be the stepping stone to increasing your enthusiasm and motivate your writer’s mind into providing more inspiration by seeking out any and all things helpful such as family, friends, writing partners, acquaintances, peaceful surroundings, pleasant sounds, the latest informative articles, books, writing websites, news, all focusing on the subject of writing and developing your own writing career.

Make a new year’s resolution to expand your writing portfolio and writing goals. Be more productive in the direction your writing is going in and along the lines with your favorite niche and long-term goal as a writer. Attend more writing workshops, creative writing college programs, writing conferences, writing groups, and read other writer’s work. Be inspired and create a voice that not only tells the story, but sells it too. You have to believe in your own work for it to stand alone in an agents hands deciding if this manuscript passes the muster.

Go with renewed encouragement and enthusiasm. Make the writer’s list of things to do and finish before next year arrives. For writers, artist, and musicians, remember the song, the painted image, and the written words that are created solely by you are undeniably magical in its originality, rendering, and beautiful melody - T.S.Garp

The Self-Motivation Fundamentals (Part Two)

Posted by T.S.Garp


Understanding how self motivation can help you succeed in all your endeavors and help you follow through with completing your ideas and goals that you have set to accomplish in your life.


Throughout our entire lives we are motivated by everyone around us. When we are young, we are motivated by our parents and teachers. We learn about words of wisdom and applied knowledge to help give us a solid platform to work on and grow with our own experience in life. We begin to learn about ourselves, our strengths, our weaknesses, and discover our own abilities. As we get older, we begin to admire and respect certain people that have made an impact in our lives. For some this could easily be your parents, teachers, mentors, and then the shift will focus on highly profiled individuals such as famous celebrities, religious figures, certain government elected officials, and successful entrepreneurs.


Having the ability to motivate yourself when others around you do not is crucial for your own success to continue. These moments of doubt, despair, and lack of faith can strike any moment and at any time. There are many naysayer’s out there, and jealous individuals, who will try to stomp on your parade, and your own success. Look at these encounters, as small steppingstones and obstacles, and ignore them, and push aside their sad commentary as you go boldly forward to the goals that you have set for yourself in life. They are not on the same path that you are traveling on and they are not your friends. Friends on the other hand are great allies, eagerly pointing out your skills, achievements, and praise you when you’ve done well.


The best way to motivate oneself is to discover your skills and abilities. What are your interests and what are your likes and dislikes? You can easily assess your own characteristics of personality and discover what type of person you are. It is true that certain people are born with a splash of character, but most people know and agree that character comes from gained knowledge, time-tested experience, and observation which lead to an amount of insurmountable wisdom, mixed with your own personal characteristic traits about how you view life and your place in it. Your personality alone can greatly determine how successful you are going to be in motivating yourself.


Discovering what your interests are, experience, long-term goals, and understanding the key strengths of your personality can help motivate you even in the darkest of times. Self-motivation is what keeps us going and is a must-have tool for entrepreneurs who want to be successful, organized, savvy, and strive for excellence. Determining your skills, strengths, room for improvements, and really tapping into your creative side can greatly fuel your motivation level, and guide you to the optimum platform to release your ideas and sets all your goals in motion.


The road to self-motivation starts with you and keeps you on your desired path to reach your final destination, which is the creation of your goal, dream job, artistic endeavor, finishing that novel, building that house, saving and investing your hard earned cash, tuition for college, helping the needy, the poor and the sick, imparting wisdom and knowledge to others, to reaching as far as the moon, anything is possible, and most importantly to yourself and your own entrepreneurship of life in general. Having self-motivation is very much like having faith in your own abilities to see your creation fully accomplished. It is said that motivation and faith can create a paradise where there was once a desert, and that is surprisingly true. Self-motivation is a push that keeps you focused and faithful to your desired goal.
