Nice guys DO NOT finish last


Gratitude goes a long, long way in the nice equation. You can be satisfied anywhere along the path of life. It doesn't mean that you are complacent. It means that you are grateful for where you are ... AND you are pursuing more/better/different. More money, better relationships, different business ... always striving to improve and move forward. That's nice.


Nice guys do not finish last. 

Actually, nice guys finish first with a ton of cheerleaders celebrating with you. Nice gets it done. Nice moves you forward with gusto. Nice keeps you in a place of integrity with yourself. Nice enrolls people to help you accomplish your goals. Nice keeps you moving in the direction of your purpose. Nice smooths the path for you. Greases the wheel. Levels the playing field. Keeps you smiling.

Nice is a four letter word to some people. There is a nasty rumor that nice is just another word for doormat. Nice in no way means that you are leaving yourself open to being used or abused ~ it is simply a way to stay in your own integrity and take care of yourself … first! This book explores and expands on the idea that staying in the nice zone is the most beneficial thing you can do for yourself and your life.

This is not a dress rehearsal. As the lyrics from "Breathe" by Anna Nalick so beautifully expresses, "life's like an hourglass, glued to the table." This is your shot. It goes by too fast to waste time. You have things to do! Big things.

Moving forward is the only thing that matters. You know that's true. You also know it's true that if you are not moving forward, you are moving backward. There is no stable ground … no sitting in a comfort zone and just hanging out. If you are not growing, you are decaying.

Being nice truly does provide a valuable assist to actually moving forward and getting what it is you want out of this life.

This book will get you on the path.

Creating Your Story Title by Mary Deal

Something writers of multiple stories will experience: Titles may come to you in a flash. Some will take a bit of thinking through. Say you’ve written your first and only story thus far. You may feel you have a great title for that one piece of prose. However, caution should be taken due to lack of experience in titles. You can only know how easy or how difficult choosing a title will be after you’ve written a few stories. For the person who writes many stories or many books, again, choosing a title may come easy, or it may be one of the most difficult aspects of writing. Some writers are unable to start a story unless they have a great title lined up. Then, with that title in mind, they set out to write, only to change the title once they see where the plot and characters lead them. Some authors cannot title a story till it’s written and rewritten for the umpteenth time. Then they decide. Whatever your preference, titles are just as important as the overall story itself...

MARGARET FIELAND INTERVIEW (guest blogger)

When did you first know you were destined to be a writer? LOL, I never realized I was destined to be a writer -- I fell into it. I'd written poetry for years, collecting it in notebooks stacked in my attic when I wrote one I wanted to keep. This led me to several online sites and ultimately to discovering the Muse Online Writers Conference where I hooked up with Linda Barnett Johnson and joined her writers forums. She required everyone to write both fiction and poetry, so, with much trepidation, I started writing fiction. Then I got hooked on it, wrote a chapter book, took the ICL course and actually learned how to write it. Then in 2010, I was seized by a desire to write a sci fi novel, so I spent six weeks or so on world building, mostly, with a bit of plotting thrown in for good measure. Who would you cite as your influences? I'm a way-back sci-fi fan, and Robert A. Heinlein influenced me heavily. I took a lot away from his writing, notably the value of surpris...
