Enjoy Life when God Answers the “Wrong” Prayer {21/31 Days to Enjoy Life}
#31Days, Idols, Jesus, Prayer October 21, 2013There’s a thing I do. I don’t know why I started it other than a basic understanding of what God’s will meant. When I want something, like really want it, I…
![I did it! Last year I stayed right on track every day. This year, it was a lot harder. Being 8.5-9 months pregnant involved many more distractions for my time than I expected. And the story I wrote wasn’t working about 20,000 words in. There were days where I wrote 117 - 336 words (the average needed is 1,667). On the 16th, I told Joey this just wasn’t my year and I think I’d stop. Without hesitation, he said, “Brittany [last name] is not a quitter.” And he was right. I then listened to a podcast (How to Win NaNo) that asked “Would you rather quit or would you rather lose?” And that was such a good mindset for me. I chose losing and tried to relieve the pressure of being 6,000 words behind and seemingly unable to catch up, with a story that was just-not-working.
So I changed things up in what intended for the characters on 11/01, and kept trudging ahead, forcing myself to write at least 1,000 words a day, even if I was in bed in the dark typing on my iPad. I’m so glad I did. There’s still a lot to be written in this story, and probably rewritten since things changed so far in, but now I love these characters I was ready to ditch 30,000 words ago. #nanowrimo2019 #nanowrimo 💙📚📝👩🏼💻👩🏼💻👩🏼💻](http://scontent-lga3-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/s640x640/74470452_819420625152903_8883376812039632198_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-1.cdninstagram.com&_nc_cat=103&oh=1695489dae6fdec4c50a902bf4ac3899&oe=5E69192C "I did it!
