Who made a New Year’s resolution to get their book done in 2022? Now, February is upon us… is your resolution still front and center?
Because (yes, I always break English grammar rules!) 2022 is the year to get your book off of your heart and out of your head once and for all.
Writing, however, is a lonely, introverted, and often an isolated undertaking. It is great to have a team behind you.
With that being said, I give a heartfelt “Thank You” to my team that stands behind me so that I can support all of you and your book productions.
So, this is my big call out to you if you are ready to get your book off your heart in 2022!
This is a great New Year’s resolution, but what if you don’t feel that you have what it takes to write a successful book, nor enough content to fill an entire book?
Well… that is where support, accountability, encouragement, structure, and confidence are crucial.
Because (here I go again… testing grammar rules) A New Year’s resolution alone is not enough to see your book through to fruition!
Of the many contributing factors demanded in the writing of a book, confidence is #1.
Once you’ve cultivated your confidence in your story’s message your odds of completing your book skyrocket.
With your confidence in your message, there is nothing that will stop you from pushing through and getting your story’s message down. It is your confidence in your idea and inspiration that will see you through; not so much the goal (nor the New Year’s resolution) of writing a book.
Now, there are many tools that will help you, yes. Though, confidence in your message is tops!
How does an author grow their confidence in their message? Well, here are a few takeaways to help build your confidence in your story:
1. Start the conversation and write
2. Write
3. Gather feedback from your peers and family
4. Write
5. Get your message out into the world. Write.
6. Gather constructive criticism that is necessary for your message and your story to evolve
7. Sit your but down in a chair and write
8. And lastly… write!
