Whatever publishing route you decide to take — whatever form of “book” makes you feel like a “real” author — you need to crack the code on quickly and effortlessly producing and completing a lot of writing.
A Radical Creative Technique
Why Are You Playing Small?
How did you grow up to be so small? To inhabit such a tiny world?
When the Universe will expand to accommodate whatever space your ideas demand -- how -- when -- why did you start believing you had to be smaller than you really are?
Someone said:
- "You are your own worst enemy."
- "You're too smart for your own good."
- "You're too big for your britches."
...and you chose to believe them.
It's a kind of anorexia — maybe not to disappear completely — but you've believed the lie, at least subconsciously, that you're not worthy of the space you take up.
So you've played dumber and acted weaker and pretended not to know and covered your light and tried to appear less threatening ... to ensure the comfort of others who feel small too.
There's enough to go around for those who will deserve it.
Not only do you have the right to be bigger, it's your duty -- your mission -- if you can accept it: to finally begin living as big as you dare to dream.

Wonder Woman Prays for Your Soul
"I want to win to show all those people who told me I couldn't do it how wrong they were about me..."
Is that really a good enough reason to "succeed" at anything?
Is it the kind of energy that can propel a dream?
What about -- instead -- proving to all those who believed in you that they were right?
