A word to the young mother who says, “You can’t be anything when you’re a single parent.”
I didn’t dream up this topic. It was actually spoken to me by a young mother. It was such a profound sentiment, I had to include it while writing THE POWER OF TRYING.
True, motherhood comes before anything else, but it’s not all that you are. You are a woman of great substance, filled with amazing potential, who just happens to be a mother as well. Repeat that back to yourself if you need to, and let it sink in for a while. That’s what you must ALWAYS remember! Don’t let motherhood become an excuse to throw your dreams in the closet, never to be seen again.
I really understand the scope and responsibilities of parenthood. Things may not move as fast as we want them to with a family in tow. Hold on to your ambitions. Pace yourself, and NEVER stop dreaming. The same goes for working fathers, young and old, or anyone barely making ends meet.
Maurice Johnson shares insight on making the transformation from a dreamer to a doer, and the correlation between success and motivation throughout the process. THE POWER OF TRYING speaks to those who desire a greater sense of self-actualization, inspiration and personal achievement.

Where do great writing ideas come from?
I’m sure you’ll agree, ideas and motivation to write can derive from many sources. Often a real life occurrence, memories or a personality trait will work its way into your writing or a plot twist. Simple real-life interactions I’ve witnessed or experienced myself, especially the unique quirky idiosyncrasies of a friend, family member, or a distant observation of someone while out and about. Whatever the motivation, embrace it, use it. It’s the random, often unexpected things that can become a goldmine of inadvertent inventive writing ideas. Don’t overlook it. Real-life can make a great co-author. —Maurice Johnson/SelfPublishMe

New Book Release from Author, Maurice Johnson
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: OKC musician/author pens new book, “THE POWER OF TRYING, Finding Your Success”
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – April. 2019 – SelfPublishMe.com
“The power of trying is yours to command, so why not let it work in your favor?”, asks guitarist/author Maurice Johnson in his new book, THE POWER OF TRYING, Finding Your Success.
Johnson shares insight on transforming one’s self from a dreamer to a doer, and the correlation between success and motivation throughout the process.
The Power of Trying speaks to those who desire a greater sense of self-actualization, inspiration and personal achievement.
With an impressive resume that spans well beyond his music career, Johnson’s achievements are diverse and far-reaching. He once co-founded a guitar company, working deals with major foreign and domestic musical instrument manufactures. After developing popular business software for musicians, he negotiated a book and licensing deal with one of his publishers. To date, he’s had featured articles in major industry magazines, with nearly twenty published book titles to his credit.
Also in this book, Johnson shares a rare behind the scenes look at how each of these endeavors became reality as a direct result of the power of trying.
