Have you ever heard the saying that there is a book in everyone? Do you want to become an Author? There are several benefits to writing a book. From getting booked to speak; impacting lives beyond your current location; inspiring others to live their best lives through your story. The possibilities are endless, and the opportunities are matchless.
Being someone that loves to read (you can catch some of my book reviews at Clementina Busayo on YouTube), I know that it takes a lot of discipline to commit to reading a book from start to finish. Becoming an author opens you up to writing and several other lessons. I know this having written a book titled 'Profitable Usherpreneur: How to Start And Grow A Successful Ushering Business (see here more about the book via the link https://selar.co/usherpreneurbooklaunch).
Here are four lessons from the over fifty plus lessons I learnt from becoming a published author:
Lesson One
Rather than have a perfect book not published, take fast, imperfect action by publishing the book you wrote.
Lesson Two
Your first book may not be the best, but if you allow yourself to learn through the process, you can always republish your book.
Lesson Three
There are three ways I deal with writers block:
I write when inspired to #besttimetowrite
I write when I have decided to #secondbesttimetowrite
I write when I know I need to #thirdbesttimetowrite
Lesson Four
To get better at writing, write, publish, write, publish, write again, publish again.
Bonus Lesson
What success looks like isn't that you never failed. What success really looks like is that you did not GIVE UP.
