I regularly argue with myself about holding back on the urge to write. What's the worst that could happen — I'm a shitty writer? No one reads it? Both of those could be true. But at the end of my life I wouldn't be lamenting the writing I was too afraid to do.

And mindset? Mindset is everything.

If we don't believe something is possible, we will never even try.
