The disciple will come from wanting
to finish your story.
Compare yourself to yourself.
Look at people you admire and think of it as modeling, not
being envious. Do I want a life like theirs?
Appreciate each stage of your journey. Your journey is never
linear.
Write what you love, and let the joy of creation come out.
Finding your voice happens when you let down your guard and let
your real self through.
Push through and get the words on the page.
Break things down into little chunks.
GOALS
Decide what your real
goals are.
Why do I want to write?
What are my dreams for my writing career?
What kind of success do I want to see?
How much am I willing to adjust in order to reach that success?
What do I envision my writing career will look like in 3-5
years?
WHO AM I?
Who am I choosing to be? A writer, a creator, a novelist!
What would my life look like if I were the best-selling version
of myself? If I were a successful author, what would be true for me now? Act as
if you are that person that you want to be.
What would the pro writer version of myself do if I don’t feel
like writing?
What is the mentality of who I want to be? Go all in.
Best-selling novelists have a writing practice they do every
single day. Figure out your own version of who you want to be and how you want
to do it.
DAILY MIND-SET PRACTICE
Set a daily mind-set practice about who you want to be. Just five
minutes for mind-set practice. Write your reality. Write your intention. What is
the energy I want? Write where you want to go and what you want to achieve.
Do your soul work first before you start your writing day, and
then take action.
With your mind-set practice, do something that triggers writing
mode, like lighting a candle, diffusing essential oils, saying a mantra—some
sort of ritual.
MAKE A COMMITMENT TO WRITING
Writing is a commitment, just like brushing your teeth every day.
What does a fit person do? What do they do every day? Apply that
to you as a novelist.
You just have to take action, and it will eventually get you
where you want to go.
YOUR PEP TALK
Tell yourself, “I am a bestselling author and bestselling
authors write books!”
