_The In-Between_ by Jeff Goins
My third book by Jeff Goins was a bit less memorable and less useful to me than the others had been. Perhaps it was more about my frame of mind than anything else. Maybe, just maybe, this is the actual point of his book.
Goins talks about how we should enjoy and embrace the waiting period between ‘action’ in our lives as there are lessons to be learned even in these periods of our lives.
It is a good message for writers. It is a good message for people in our current state of humanity. There is so much talk about the tech-generation or how young people are so bombarded with information, which is why I believe trending is happening with yoga, meditation and calmer activities to balance out the frenzy that is going on in other parts of our lives. For writers, the calm is what is needed to make the creativity flow.
So, although the book didn’t motivate me as much as I might have liked given the other ones, I guess I cannot say that it did not have some kind of impact. Perhaps this book is just what I needed in-between making decisions about changes in my life!
