Action is what creates success, not the consumption of information.
Think about that for a minute. It is pretty simple, and it’s true. You have a story and want to share it with people around the world you know can benefit from it. You want to help them.
After speaking with many aspiring authors, there were only three things holding them back from realizing their book dreams:
1. They don’t know what to write about
2. They don’t know where to start
3. They don’t have thousands of dollars to invest in getting it done
Some people effortlessly write with great flow and creativity. Sadly, for most aspiring authors, this simply is not the case. The majority of people begin with the greatest intentions and then this happens:
• Writer’s block
• Lack of focus
• Confusion about what to write
And then it gets worse. Fear sets in. Will anyone even care what I have to say?
How do you get started? How can you deal with writer’s block, focus challenges and fear?
Here are a few helpful strategies:
• Create a solid outline of your book first. Structuring your chapters and listing their key points and ideas helps you clearly visualize your book and provides you with a solid base to stay focused.
• Look for material you can re-purpose, such as blog posts, articles or transcribed audios.
• Set aside time daily during your most creative time of the day.
• Write! Let your words come from your heart rather than your head. This helps you more easily connect with your reader.
Don’t let writing your own book become one of those things on your bucket list that never gets completed. If you’d like some help with getting your own book written faster and more easily, check out our 30-Day Writer’s Program at www.CrescendoPublishing.com/30dWriteYourBookWorkshop
