Natalie Goldberg Quotes About Running

• This is the practice school of writing. Like running, the more you do it, the better you get at it. Some days you don't want to run and you resist every step of the three miles, but you do it anyway. You practice whether you want to or not. You don't wait around for inspiration and a deep desire to run ... That's how writing is too ... One of the main aims in writing practice is to learn to trust your own mind and body; to grow patient and nonaggressive.

• En realidad, cuando miro mis viejos cuadernos, creo que he sido un poco autoindulgente y me he dado demasiado tiempo para divagar en mis pensamientos discursivos. Podría haber cortado por lo sano antes. Sin embargo, es bueno conocer nuestros terribles yoes, no alabarlos ni criticarlos, sólo reconocerlos. Entonces, a partir de este conocimiento, estamos mejor equipados para elegir la belleza, la consideración amable y la verdad clara. Tomamos esta decisión con los pies en el suelo. No corremos salvajemente tras la belleza con el miedo a nuestras espaldas.

• We have to look at our own inertia, insecurities, self-hate, fear that, in truth, we have nothing valuable to say.

If you are not afraid of the voices inside you, you will not fear the critics outside you.
