<blockquote><p>Procrastination, frustration, dreams, future goals and accomplishments towards getting things done&#8230;.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>These are some of the things that hold us back from bringing out our talents and sharing them with the world.</strong></p>
<p>Just like some poets&#8230;there is a struggle, not to get it on paper, but to keep it moving and sharing with the world your talent. If it&#8217;s always been a dream of yours, what is it that holds you back from making that dream a reality.</p>
<p><strong>The dreaming process is the easiest part</strong> of the road to success.  Dreaming takes no boundaries, talent or skill. Just close your eyes, dream and wish up some stuff.  However, putting the actual dream into action is where the skill comes in.  Things like knowledge, courage, stamina, faith, hope, integrity, longevity and self confidence are the action words we need to start dreams in motion. These are the real verbs that play major roles in us succeeding to the completion of our dreams.</p>
<p>~ Do you have a poetic side?<br />
~ Do you have a dream to share your talent with the world but are struggling to make it happen?<br />
~ Have you been there but are now making things happen or did you just give up?<br />
~ What is you biggest dream for your poetic talent?<br />
~ What is you biggest set back?<br />
~ What have you done thus far to reach your goals?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Your comments are appreciated<br />
Share with us your  struggles and </strong><strong>triumphs </strong><strong> <img src='http://www.shemagurls.info/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>=============<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Also join us next Friday for a live follow up discussion with our very own S-H-E-M-A Gurl, Karen Brown on our <a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/the_shema_gurls" target="_blank">BTR show</a>. </strong>She will share her personal knowledge of what she has faced and is faced with today, as far as bringing out her poetic side for the whole world to see She has faced some of the same mentioned struggles in her own climb to er&#8217; done.  She is also going to share some encouraging words, poetry and a little light for other poets who may be in the same situation too reach towards the dream of bringing out that poet in you!</p>
