[This is now going to be my, every B4IN article, standard opening (as of Dec. 19, 2024):
I get it, I really do, all these outlets are operating as a business… And how do they make money? Advertising! (more continues: /media/2024/07/click-bait-here-click-bait-there-everywhere-click-bait-2515961.html )
Yes, sorry, frankly I TOO find especially the initial Ads (they pile up, to be able to get them viewed in case someone doesn't read the whole article) here interrupting a nice/natural Read flow and are ANNOYING (but it keeps the Site FREE FOR VIEWING no Pay Wall to have to BUY your way past) and conversely their annoyance may indeed keep some from wanting to bother (so, Please, there is some GREAT CONTENT here on B4IN, keep reading the entire pieces despite the annoying Ads) and note if you engage an AD BLOCKER often I have found it/they can cause issues with seeing all the intended article content --- don't want you to miss any of mine, nor anyone else who posts here entire content as intended! The authors images (some or all), videos (some or all), their intended cross-reference links (vs Site produced Ad links, the easy Share-At/On buttons, and more, might also get "blocked" from viewing. And so now, to catch any NEW Readers, I too adding to annoyance having to repeat this over and over. My apologies. I endeavor to always give you DETAILED WRITINGS (and cross-reference related links with other rabbit-holes you can go down) hopefully you'll deem worthy of putting up with the annoying Ads to engage in/with.
I am NOT fond of the changes, but I have been with B4IN a long time now - certainly not looking to leave.
Lastly, note: I also write for TheLibertyBeacon (https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard), where I drop pieces (normally weekly) on Saturdays.]

KEY QUOTES: .
.

“Sometimes we just need a fresh take on it because it’s easy to get stuck in the fear monger mode and you get it from everywhere. So every once in a while, start the Monday with somebody telling you that you’re amazing, that you can do this, that you’re meant for greatness, that you can take a leap.” – D.C. Gomez

 

“Sometimes we have to give ourselves and others grace. I think sometimes we’re better at giving other people grace, but we forget to do it to ourselves and we tend to tear ourselves down and be so judgmental.” – D.C. Gomez

[is difference between Biblically Judging and constant criticalness - Matthew 7 is really Condemn Not Lest Ye Be Condemned - for Final Judgement is for The Lord]

 

“If you can’t fly, then run. If you can run, then walk. Then they just move, you know, and that’s something that a lot of my readership is like. I needed that. I just needed to remember that to reach my dreams. I just needed to take a step.” – D.C. Gomez

 

“We need those common things and we need to remember that we’re much more alike than we’re different and that we all suffer, that we all have these things and that we all lift ourselves up very similar.” – D.C. Gomez

 

“Never dismiss sweet little old ladies because you don’t know what they’re carrying in those purses. Especially if they’re in Texas.” – D.C. Gomez

In this week’s CTP episode…

In a fascinating exploration of motivation, creativity, and multi-genre storytelling, my recent podcast conversation with author D.C. Gomez revealed a remarkable journey of inspiration that transcends traditional literary boundaries. What began as a simple weekly newsletter of motivational quotes has blossomed into a published book that captures the essence of personal empowerment and resilience.

 

Gomez’s professional trajectory is a testament to the power of perseverance and unexpected creative paths. Originally trained in film and television, her career trajectory was dramatically altered by the events of 9/11, which led her to join the military. After approximately 15 years, she found her way back to creative expression through writing, discovering that storytelling was a more financially accessible medium compared to filmmaking.

 

The Monday Motivations book emerged organically from Gomez’s practice of sending weekly inspirational emails to her readers. What started as a casual communication strategy became a recurring request from her audience, who consistently encouraged her to compile these motivational insights into a formal publication. The resulting book is a collection of 60 quotes designed to provide inspiration that can be consumed flexibly, without rigid chronological constraints.

 

Gomez’s creative range is impressively broad, spanning multiple genres including urban fantasy, contemporary fiction, and motivational literature. Her ‘Reapers Universe’ series, which includes the intriguing ‘Intern Diaries’ novels, showcases her ability to blend supernatural elements with compelling narratives. Notably, her upcoming projects include a unique love story titled ‘Sugar Plums and Death’s Intern’, which promises to continue her trademark blend of whimsy and unexpected storytelling.

 

The conversation highlighted a crucial theme of hope and positivity, echoing Martin Luther King Jr.’s philosophy of continuous movement and progress. Gomez emphasizes that motivation isn’t about grand gestures, but about taking small, consistent steps towards one’s goals. Her approach resonates with the idea that every individual has the potential for greatness, regardless of their current circumstances.

 

One of the most compelling aspects of Gomez’s work is her commitment to creating narratives that offer hope and inspiration across diverse genres. From her zombie-themed post-apocalyptic novella to her motivational book and urban fantasy series, she consistently weaves themes of resilience, adaptability, and personal transformation.

 

Her upcoming projects continue to challenge literary conventions, including a romantic novel featuring an unconventional premise of a character who doesn’t believe in love, only to meet a potential partner who happens to be a ghost. This creative approach demonstrates Gomez’s ability to blend humor, supernatural elements, and profound human experiences.

 

The discussion also touched upon the importance of giving both ourselves and others grace—a concept deeply rooted in understanding human complexity and imperfection. Gomez articulated the significance of recognizing that everyone is navigating their own challenges and that compassion should be a fundamental approach to interpersonal interactions.

 

For aspiring writers and creatives, Gomez’s journey offers multiple insights: the value of persistent creativity, the importance of adapting to life’s unexpected turns, and the power of listening to one’s audience. Her multi-genre approach suggests that creativity need not be confined to traditional boundaries, but can instead flow organically across different forms of expression.

 

As we reflect on the conversation, it becomes clear that motivation is not just about external achievements, but about cultivating an internal mindset of possibility, resilience, and continuous growth. D.C. Gomez exemplifies this philosophy, transforming personal experiences and creative impulses into narratives that inspire, entertain, and challenge readers across multiple genres.
