Thanks a lot Carol. I’m feeling inspired again tonight,watching the diving – I think I am far more suited to exercising my mind as opposed to my body! 🙂

Yes, I think I’ve probably surpassed 10,000 now and still have so much I want to achieve… um, like a movie of one of my books, starring Chris Helmsworth 😀
I think dreaming is also essential and I’m sure Olympians do that too! 🙂

My hubby speaks on the “10,000” rule all the time. It’s so true, in everything. I figure I have minimally about 18,000 hours in writing, and yet I have so many hours to go to even dream about “Winning the Gold” aka the NYT bestseller list. Luckily, like the Olympians, I love what I do, so I’m happy to repeat the 10,000-hour rule many times over.
