Authors do not write for other people, but for themselves

Physically, there are billions of people on the planet today, but only one spirit. Hemerson said: "there is a common spirit to all men"; I think he was right.

An author, first, would like to express himself, feelings and emotions, through his work. And, according to his sensibility and his inherent habilities, he will use one channel of expression or another for his work; such as writing, sculpting, speaking, singing, dancing, drawing, etc.


But, the condition for a work to be appreciated and loved by other people is to be first deeply appreciated and loved by its creator. Appreciation and love attract the same. Because all people share the same spirit, if one person expresses his own truth and falls deeply in love with it, other people will, like in a mirror, recognize themselves in the work produced and fall in love with it also.

That is why an author, a musician, a singer or any artist can become famous. The main reason is because other people who share the same spirit with him recognize themselves in the product. It reminds them the beauty and the perfection they already have in them, and which is shared by all other people.

For this reason, they would like to get it and enjoy it by paying money for it. And the more they pay, the more you, the author, become famous and rich.

Be true to yourself and don't sell yourself short. You, as human being, have a personal message of love to share with others. Do not understimate your value and your hability to love. Your gift to the world and to yourself is waiting for you to be uncovered.

Some authors write about fear and how to get rid of it. Do you know why? It is because they are afraid of life themselves. And all they do is studying and looking for methods to help release themselves from fear.

Others write about about money, health, spirituality, etc. Just for the same reason. These subjects represents their inherent preoccupation and they would like to resolve theses issues. When writing about them with all their love and appreciation for their own work, naturally other people with the same challenges will recognize themselves in their work and love it.

The problem is not wether they will get results or not. The problem is wether people will recognize themselves in the work or not. If they do, they would have found someone or a voice that tells their story, and for that, they will pay your work.

Does it make sense to you? Do you really fully love and appreciate it? If yes, do it!

Are you a cat or a mouse ?

People are generally divided into two categories. They are either mice or cats. But, it's possible to be both also, according to specific circumstances. For example, someone can be a cat in his family, with his wife and children, and be a super mouse at work, with his boss or colleagues.

To which category do you belong to ?

To know it, take the time to observe yourself in your daily life. How do you behave among your colleagues, or your friends, or in your family ? Are you for example always afraid of public speaking ? or do you experience difficulties to express your opinion during meetings or other circumstances ? Are you unease in official gatherings, or in front of your boss or any other personality ?

If your answer is yes, to these few questions, chances are that you are a mouse. However, there are lots of mice that force themselves to behave like cats in some circumstances, in order to prove to others and to themselves that they are different.

The problem is that, when they do so, they become aggressive or arrogant, because their attitude does not come naturally. By forcing themselves that way, they finish by hurting others around them, and their yesterday friends become today, their worse ennemies.

A mouse cannot become a cat, nor a cat become a mouse. They are different creatures with different and specific faculties. And each of them develops its own natural faculties in order to survive in life.

You will never see a mouse trying to become a cat because it is tired of being chased and devoured all the time, no. The only thing it can do is develop more and more its intelligence, its rapidity and fastness, to be able to escape mice permanent pursuits.

If you recognize yourself to be a mouse, instead of a cat, learn to do the same. Develop the faculties you already have, and express them when necessary. But first, accept yourself fully as you are and never try to be someone else. Never.

If you think you are afraid of public speaking for example, accept it and don't be ashamed of it. Then, develop something else, like your listening or written skills. Good listeners are very much appreciated, contrary to what people believe. Don't talk about writers...

You can also improve aspects of your life in which you have identified some weaknesses. But, as I said before, the first thing is to accept these weaknesses as such. You cannot improve anything that is not recognized first by yourself as being a weakness.

When this step is made, you can exercise yourself with small audience first, even with two people. Then, bit by bit, little by little and without forcing anything, improvment will follow, until you reach more important groups. The same applies to everything; exercise is the key.

To conclude, if you recognize yourself to be a mouse, accept it. Do not try to be a cat overnight. Instead, improve your own inherent faculties, to become the best mouse ever. Have you ever heard of Speedy Gonzalez, the fastest mouse of Mexico ?

I hope you understand what I mean...
