Good EARLY Morning World! :) As always, I would like to first thank each and every one of you for your continued support on my book project, "This Is Why I Write".
Each day as I sit and write, I attempt to dig out treasures that will speak life. Treasures that will reach the hearts of everyone who reads my work, which will hopefully, win the minds of those specific individuals.
My mind has definitely been busy today; for the good though! I've accepted that my past has been cut, copied, and pasted into my future! Not that I've accepted to dwell on specific life events, and allowed them to hinder my progress. Rather, I have chosen to utilize that which I have experienced to maintain my humbleness. I'm reminded of a quote that I had first heard in high school, "If you're humble, you won't stumble".
Individuals typically lose their essence when they are conformed to who, or what they have become, rather than the process that got them to that point. They become stagnant in their growth, omitting the significance of their growth which is to, give what has been given to you, to others.
I believe that more can be accomplished if we take the knowledge acquired through our struggle to the masses. If we aren't successful in reaching the masses, we all are capable of reaching at leaast, one other individual. Grasping the value of this concept, will enable each and every one of us to improve the quality of not only our life, but the lives of many others.
Remember, it's in your struggle that you recognize your purpose. Some people may need YOUR purpose to open their eyes to realize theirs.

"Pain In My Dream"
Good Evening World! Are you excited? I am.
First, I would like to thank everyone who continues to show support towards my book project, "This Is Why I Write", set to release in April 2010. I see that some people may be more enthused about it than I am!
I sincerely would like to keep you guys updated on the process of my thinking. As often as you're updated on my thinking, you will be updated on the process of my book.
I've hit a transition period in my life. Every time some one encounters me, they see a smiling face, they hear positive speech, and feel an optimistic presence. It's not fraud, but definitely something that is authentic, however, it doesn't dismiss struggles from my own personal life.
What's weird about the situation is that, I'm writing about how to utilize your struggle to help empower and accomplish your dream, ultimately resulting in a victory. But, I too am now experiencing turbulence in my dream. Each day that I walk through life, "life" contributes "pain" to my dream. It is the exact reason, "why I write".
I've extracted the positive attribute of my current struggle, and that is that I am now forced to make my dream a reality.
Yes, life does happen. Pain happens. And, triumphs happen. Don't get stuck in the pain. Get forced into triumphant victory. Don't settle into inaction when turbulence presents itself, but rather excel into your destined territory.
I'll leave you with this tonight, "To get out of a hole, you must find your way to the top. You can't find your way to top by staying in the hole." -Matthew Newman

Second Book Project, Author Matthew Newman
Happy Sunday to all the world! It is my prayer that you are fed with rich tokens of wisdom and knowledge each time you come to visit my blog post.
As you all know, I'm currently working on my first book project, "This Is Why I Write", set to be released in April 2010. Although there are many reasons "Why I Write", I've decided to focus on one specific reason. It is vitally important to narrow in on one subject, cover the entire basis and then venture into something else. For example, an Army Soldier would agree with me that, you must win single battles before you win wars.
Nevertheless, Each time I sit to write, my mind constantly churns with thoughts. I want deeper clarification for this and that, etc. So many different questions come to mind when I think about people; each with their own unique beliefs, cultures, personalities, and minds. I could study indepth research on the minds of people, but nothing is more concrete than a mind tailored to a specific generation. So, "I Have a Question". The question is, what's on your mind? What's in your mind? Are you locked in your current state because of tradition?
I'm telling the world, my second book project is entitled, "I Have a Question" -Coming Soon.
Please, stay tuned.

My book, This Is Why I Write
Welcome to my world! I've decided to create a blog to let the world into the process of my book project, "This Is Why I Write".
As an author, I would like to remain as personable as possible. I would like to remain authentic and vulnerable so that my readers will have access to my mind; getting a deeper and more thorough understanding of the way that I view certain topics and situations.
The basis of my book, "This Is Why I Write", is how to effectively utilize your Struggle to help empower and accomplish your Dream; which will ultimately result in a Victory. My mother, the late Thompsine Newman once told me, "With every Dream there's a Struggle. But, through the Struggle there's a Victory". So, I've decided to expound on that quote to help the person you know who may not know that the best is still on it's way.
In "This Is Why I Write", I will include real-life stories of ex-cons, prostitutes, Atheist, Christians, drug-dealers, and homosexuals; real people, real stories. Each individual here on earth has a purpose, and has potential to be someone (something) great... they each have a dream (some knowingly, some unknowingly).
My mission is to effectively win the minds of every single person that reads the book, which will ultimately give access to their hearts. I'm driven by driving others.
Please, feel free to comment on my blog post. Ask questions, give your insight. This is YOUR world. Be the ONE to start a revolution.
