daily wisdom – Daily Wisdom Words

OUR DAILY WISDOM WORD TODAY IS FICTION WRITING. FICTION IS A WONDERFUL WAY TO WRITE. WE GET TO USE OUR CREATIVE JUICES AND FLOW TO DETERMINE THE BEGINNING, MIDDLE, AND END OF A NOVEL, SHORT STORY OR SONG. SONGWRITING IS A GREAT EXAMPLE TO USE WHEN DISCUSSING WRITING FICTION, ESPECIALLY COUNTRY WESTERN SONGS. COUNTRY WESTERN SONGS ARE OFTEN BASED ON THE HEARTACHES MOST OF US EXPERIENCE IN LIFE. FOR EXAMPLE, MOST OF US CAN SAY THERE IS SOMEONE IN OUR PAST OR PRESENT THE WE KNOW WAS OR IS OUR TRUE LOVE AND IT SIMPLY DOESN’T WORK OUT.

THIS IS WHEN A SAD COUNTRY SONG CAN DO JUSTICE TO OUR EMOTIONS. ALTHOUGH THE SONGWRITER OR NOVELIST IS CREATING A “FICTIONAL STORY”, IT IS BASED ON SINCERE EMOTIONS THE WRITER HAS FELT AT SOME POINT IN THEIR OWN LIFE. BEFORE GOING ANY FURTHER, LET US TAKE A LOOK AT THE WEBSTER DICTIONARY MEANING OF “FICTION” AND DAILY WISDOM WORD MEANING OF FICTION.

WEBSTER DEFINITION OF FICTION-LITERATURE IN THE FORM OF PROSE, ESPECIALLY SHORT STORIES, AND NOVELS THAT DESCRIBES IMAGINARY EVENTS AND PEOPLE.

DAILY WISDOM WORD MEANING OF FICTION-ANY STORY WE WRITE BASED ON OUR CREATIVITY

1. USE OUR ADJECTIVES AND ADVERBS! ADD COLOR WITH DESCRIPTIONS NOT ONLY FOR YOUR READER BUT FOR YOU.

2. READ AS MUCH AS YOU WRITE. THIS GOES FOR. ANY WRITING WE DO. OFTEN I GET THE QUESTION HOW MY BLOG, DAILY WISDOM WORDS PLAYS A ROLE IN WRITING. THE MORE WORDS WE KNOW WITH DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES ON THESE WORDS, THE MORE TOOLS WE HAVE TO WRITE. FICTION IS DEFINITELY IN NEED OF THIS FOR IT TO BE A SUCCESSFUL WORK OF ART.

3. HAVE A FEW TWISTS AND TURNS WITH THE ANTAGONIST AND PROTAGONIST IN YOUR NOVEL. IF YOU ARE TRUE TO CHARACTER, USE A SURPRISE ENDING FOR YOUR NOVEL OR STORY/BLOG. 4. MAKE YOUR CHARACTERS LIFELIKE AND DISTINCTIVE. IF YOU THINK ABOUT ANYONE, WE REALLY LEARN MORE FROM WHAT THEY DO VERSUS WHAT THEY SAY, OR IN MOST CASES NOT SAY. KEEP IN MIND ALWAYS, REAL PEOPLE ARE CREATURES OF HABIT. THIS IS IMPORTANT WHEN USING TWISTS AND TURNS WITH CHARACTERS IN YOUR WRITING.

4. KEEP IN MIND, EVERYONE LIKES A “HAPPY ENDING”. IF YOU ARE WRITING FICTION, IT’S UP TO YOU TO CREATE THIS. I DON’T WANT TO SAY ALL “FICTION NOVELS” SHOULD HAVE A HAPPY ENDING. I SAY THIS REMINDING YOU HOW MUCH POWER YOU HAVE OVER FICTIONS CREATIVITY VERSUS TRUE STORIES WHERE YOU MUST STICK TO FACTS.

5. CHOOSE YOUR NARRATIVE. STRUCTURE. WILL YOUR NOVEL OR STORY UNFOLD IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER? THIS IS A LINEAR PLOT STRUCTURE. NONLINEAR PLOT STRUCTURE. EVENTS WITHIN THE STORYLINE, CHARACTERS WITH DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES, DON’T FOLLOW ORDER BUT PERSPECTIVES. PARALLEL PLOT STRUCTURE IS ALSO A CHOICE WHERE STORYLINES RUN CONCURRENT WITH MULTIPLE CHARACTERS AT THE SAME TIME OR CIRCULAR PLOT STRUCTURE. THERE ARE MORE WAYS TO PRESENT STORYLINES, BUT THIS WILL BE DISCUSSED IN A FUTURE ARTICLE.

6. WILL YOUR STORY BE TOLD FROM A FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW OR A THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW?

7. LESS IS MORE. SHARING LESS, SLOWING UNFOLDING THE DYNAMICS OF CHARACTERS LEAD TO A READER CONTINUING TO TURN THE PAGES!

TODAY’S DAILY WISDOM WORD IS RESPONSIBILITY. AT WHAT POINT DO WE AS MATURE ADULTS TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR ACTIONS? AT WHAT POINT DO WE BECOME THE ONES RESPONSIBLE FOR SOMETHING THAT IS WRONG?

YOU MAY FIND IT FASCINATING TO LEARN THAT THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS OUT THERE INCAPABLE OF TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR ACTIONS. THESE INDIVIDUALS SIMPLY CAN’T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR WRONGDOING.

THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE WAY THEY VIEW WHO THEY ARE. TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SOMETHING, WOULD ALSO MEAN TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR OURSELVES AND USING OUR INTERNAL “TRUTH CHECKER”. THESE INDIVIDUALS WOULD HAVE TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OR RESPONSIBILITY AND BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR ACTIONS THEY SIMPLY CAN’T ACCEPT THEMSELVES CAPABLE OF BEING ACCOUNTABLE FOR. THEY DO NOT WANT TO SEE THIS TRUTH AS THEY VIEW IT AS A REFLECTION UPON WHO THEY ARE INSTEAD OF ACCEPTING OUR HUMAN SIDE AND OUR CAPABILITY TO MAKE A MISTAKE.

TO SEE THEMSELVES IN THE KIND OF LIGHT TRUTH WOULD REVEAL IS SIMPLY TOO MUCH FOR THEIR EGO AND PRIDE. SADLY, TAKING RESPONSIBILITY WHEN WE ARE IN THE WRONG IS PART OF BEING AN ADULT. TAKING RESPONSIBILITY MEANS THESE INDIVIDUALS WILL HAVE TO SEE THE TRUTH ABOUT THEIR FLAWS AS HUMAN BEINGS AND THEY SIMPLY ARE NOT CAPABLE OF DOING THIS. WHY? FIRST, IT REQUIRES RIGOROUS HONESTY ABOUT WHO WE ARE AS INDIVIDUALS AND THESE PERSONALITIES ARE INCAPABLE OF LOOKING AT THE TRUTH REGARDING THEIR CHARACTER WHICH ALLOWS THEM TO LIE TO THEMSELVES ABOUT WHO THEY ARE AND OTHERS AS WELL. WHO THEY ARE IS NOT WHO THEY SEE THEMSELVES AS AND THE IMAGE THEY DO SEE, IS DISTORTED. BEFORE GOING ANY FURTHER, LET US TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT THE WORD RESPONSIBILITY ACTUALLY MEANS IN OUR WEBSTER DICTIONARY AND OUR DAILY WISDOM WORD DEFINITION.

WEBSTER DEFINITION OF RESPONSIBILITY-1. THE STATE OR FACT OF BEING ACCOUNTABLE OR TO BLAME FOR SOMETHING. 2. A THING THAT ONE IS REQUIRED TO DO AS PART OF A JOB, ROLE, OR LEGAL OBLIGATION. 3. A MORAL OBLIGATION TO BEHAVE CORRECTLY TOWARD OR IN RESPECT OF.

DAILY WISDOM WORD MEANING OF RESPONSIBILITY-1. BEING ABLE TO HAVE ENOUGH MATURITY NO MATTER HOW BAD FACING THE TRUTH ABOUT THEMSELVES IS IF THEY ARE CAPABLE OF ACCOUNTABILITY DOING SO AND HAVING ENOUGH RESPECT FOR ANOTHER TO ACCEPT AND FACE THE TRUTH ABOUT THE RESPONSIBILITY THEY HAD FOR SOMETHING GONE WRONG. WHEN ONE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR A WRONGDOING TO OTHERS OR WRONGDOING HURTING THEMSELVES. NOONE HAS EVER SAID TAKING RESPONSIBILITY AND OWNERSHIP FOR WHAT HAS GONE WRONG IF YOU CREATED THIS PROBLEM INTENTIONALLY OR UNINTENTIONALLY WOULD BE EASY. PART OF BEING AN ADULT IS BEING ABLE TO BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR WRONGDOING WHEN THEY ARE AT FAULT. IT IS DIFFICULT TO DO THIS. IT IS SO DIFFICULT IN FACT, PEOPLE GO TO MANY LENGTHS TO COVER UP THEIR PART IN WHATEVER THE WRONGDOING WAS ESPECIALLY WHEN THE ROLE THEY PLAYED MADE THEM FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ISSUE. THEY WILL LIE, CREATE STORIES OF FALSEHOOD, CHEAT, STEAL, LIE TO THEMSELVES, DECEIVE, AND GO TO EXTREME LENGTHS TO AVOID THE TRUTH ABOUT WHO THEY ARE AS PEOPLE.

WHAT THEY DO NOT REALIZE IS THEY MAKE THEMSELVES LOOK WORSE TO OTHERS AS THE TRUTH IS USUALLY REVEALED. THEY END UP THINKING EVEN LESS OF THEMSELVES WITH THE LIES THEY TELL TO AVOID THE ACCOUNTABILITY OF THE ISSUE THEY CAUSED COME TO LIGHT. THEY LOOK WORSE THAN THEY WOULD HAVE IF THEY HAD ASSUMED RIGHTFUL OWNERSHIP OF WHAT THEY ARE ACCOUNTABLE FOR AT THE ONSET OF THEIR MISTAKE WHICH BECOMES INTENTIONAL WHEN THEY LIE ABOUT IT.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR READING ABOUT RESPONSIBILITY TODAY AND WHAT IT REALLY MEANS. ONE LAST THING I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE IS IF A PERSON IS WILLING TO LIE INTENTIONALLY TO THEMSELVES THIS MEANS THEY ARE CAPABLE OF MANY OTHER THINGS THAT CAN BE FAR WORSE THAN DENIABILITY. DON’T BE ANGRY WITH THEM IF YOU ARE A VICTIM OF THEIR LIES. PRAY THEY GET HELP. SAMANTHA LEBOEUF/DWW
