From Self-Doubt to Self-Confidence: How Writing a Book Can Help You Believe in Yourself

This is an expanded 10-part series delving individually into the reasons why you should write a book and why I should be your guide based?on this post.

Reason #1: A book is an instant confidence booster

Being an author automatically sets you apart from the average person. Authors are often perceived as experts or authorities in their chosen fields, and this gives them a sense of credibility and authority that is not typically available to most people. Besides, the word author is embedded in the word authority. You can't have one without the other.

• How do you normally feel about authors?
• Do you treat them differently from the average person?
• What sort of impression do you get when you're introduced to an author?

When people perceive you in a high and elevated way, you begin to feel better about yourself. That's why writing a book is an instant confidence booster. Most people treat authors as celebrities.

• And imagine if your book hits Amazon's #1 Best-Seller Status.
• What would that do for your confidence and self-esteem?

The process of writing a book requires a significant amount of discipline, focus, and determination. When you complete a book, you prove to yourself that you have what it takes to accomplish a significant goal. This sense of accomplishment can be a huge confidence booster, as it will make you feel more capable and confident in your abilities.

Achieving best-seller status on Amazon can be a huge confidence booster, as it signifies that your work is not only valuable but also popular and in high demand. When you see that your work is resonating with readers and having an impact, it can give you a tremendous sense of pride and boost your self-esteem. I felt that way after my book,?How a Postage Stamp Saved My Life?hit that status.

Here are five more ways that writing a book can boost your confidence:

1. It proves that you have something valuable to offer.?Writing a book requires knowledge, expertise, and a unique perspective on a particular topic. By publishing a book, you are demonstrating that you have something valuable to offer to the world, which can be a huge confidence booster.
2. It requires discipline and hard work.?Writing a book is not an easy task. It requires a significant amount of discipline, focus, and determination to see it through to completion. Completing a book can be a huge confidence booster, as it proves that you have the dedication and persistence to tackle a difficult challenge.
3. It increases your visibility and influence.?Publishing a book can help you build your brand and establish yourself as an expert or authority in your field. This increased visibility and influence can be a huge confidence booster, as it can make you feel more important and respected.
4. It helps you overcome self-doubt.?Writing a book can be a daunting task, and it's natural to experience self-doubt along the way. However, completing a book can be a huge confidence booster, as it proves to yourself that you have what it takes to overcome obstacles and achieve your goals, especially when you have a trusted guide.
5. It can give you a sense of purpose and pride. Writing a book is an incredibly fulfilling experience. When you are passionate about your topic and see the impact that your book has on others, it can fill you with purpose and pride.

The act of creating something that is valuable and meaningful to others is a feeling like no other.

I want that feeling for you.
