Hard Work is Hard :(

Am I right or am I right?

Hard work is hard! That's kinda the thing about hard work. It tends to be hard. Which is not fun. I don't like hard work. You probably don't like hard work. Most people don't like hard work. Why?

Because it's hard.

This seems really simplistic. Simplistic ideas are actually usually the ideas that really stick in your mind though. It's pretty easy to understand why hard work is hard. By definition, it's supposed to be hard, or else it wouldn't be hard work.

However, it is a fact of life that hard work is kinda sorta a key part of pretty much anything worth having/experiencing/doing in this world.

Writing isn't an exception.

It's hard. When you come to that writers block or you realize you have too much plot or you don't know how to incorporate a plot element or a character that you actually really need. Or when you're just tired or bored and you don't want to write anything, especially not this STUPID PROJECT THAT YOU'VE SPENT MONTHS OF YOUR LIFE ON AND ITS STILL NOT GOOD ENOUGH; WHY WILL IT NEVER BE GOOD ENOUGH.

It's hard to move past that. And it's hard when you know that it isn't good enough and you can't figure out what to do to make it good enough.

And do address your fears and questions I will give you two responses.

Hard work.

It's a really great video that I find very inspirational. Especially because it's a problem that a lot of people probably deal with. So enjoy!
