#PitchWars Prep: Day 3 of 23

Written 13/07/16

It started off quite similarly as yesterday. Not a whole lot of work was getting done, but that’s because I was excited! I was turning in my passport application today and I am so freaking happy about getting my passport! I’m going to Europe in middle/late January so I’m super excited about it. The lady was super nice, but I wish passports weren’t so pricey. Oh well, they weren’t too bad in price. As a gift to my mum, I bought it for her since my Aunt’s paying for her ticket. An all paid for trip for her.

Anyways, we got back home around 2:30 so I caught up on some YouTube videos and around 3:30, I started working. I’m cutting and adding things as I go, so right now my word count is almost where the last draft ended which was 96,700. The reason is, there’s a lot of details that I’ve changed and I felt like there’s extra paragraphs that could be added. I am not worrying too much as I’m taking a whole chapter out because I’m changing the storyline mentioned in that particular chapter.

I write on the desktop program called Scrivener (amazing program for all writers) and there’s one annoying thing about it that I can’t stand. When you copy and paste from Word, it formats your chapters weird. So I’m forced to make new chapters for the ones that weren’t written on Scrivener. Also, it’s added an extra indent so it’s really annoying. 

At the end of the day, I didn’t finish a whole chapter, but I don’t really mind. It was a Sci-fi heavy chapter and I was fixing tons of descriptions and changing some of the technology I had. I am almost done with this chapter, but it’s over 4,000 words to begin with so I knew I wouldn’t finish. I told you I would slow down eventually.

No matter how many times you fail to meet your own expectations, you have to forgive yourself. Despite contrary belief, dwelling on and badgering yourself over your faults doesn’t ever help you grow into who you want to be.

It’s like gardening: if your flower isn’t blossoming like you want it to, you don’t rip out its leaves as punishment for failing to satisfy you. You recognize the problem and figure out what’s going wrong with its environment so you can modify it, giving the flower a chance to bloom in its own time.

Accept your shortcoming or setback, forgive yourself, and figure out what’s going wrong so that you can plan for how to prevent it from repeating in the future. Thank your past self for trying in the first place and then give your future self the love needed to flourish.

YES 100%. I love Peggy. I love the people working on this project. A privilege and an honor to bring her back to the fans. I’d shoot on the weekends. Blue serum. Whatever it takes.

You are a dynamic character in the story of your life.  You are complex and multi-dimensional.  Don’t give up.  Your story isn’t over!

How to be Your own Best Friend

1. Treat yourself the way you would treat a person who you loved, highly valued, and cared about.

2. Always love yourself – no matter what!

3. Only say positive, compassionate, understanding and affirming things about, and to, yourself.

4. Hold your own hand in tough and stressful times. Don’t abandon yourself, or let yourself down.

5. Respect yourself, and the efforts that you’re making to be a better person, and to change and to grow.

6. Understand your limitations, be patient with yourself. Accept that it takes time to master anything at all.

7. Be kind to yourself when you feel self-critical, or you want to be judgmental and hard on yourself.

Go to him.
