Mindset? Is it though?
When it comes to struggling with writing, it’s true: mindset is a big factor.?Working on my own mindset, taking leaps, having courage, are all great things that have helped me complete two books over the past 18 months.
But also.
After working over the past few years with many clients who want to write, I’ve realized that mindset is often not their problem.
A lot of them have a book idea but just don’t know what exactly what to do next. So, they dive into writing whatever comes up first. But their idea is often missing key components, so they write themselves in circles, getting more and more confused about what they’re actually trying to say.
They want to write a book, but doing it this way is a bit like saying, “I want to build a house. Guess I should get over to Home Depot and buy some wood.”
I’m not a builder, but I’m pretty sure that’s the WRONG first step.
Let’s say you knew that was the wrong first step. How would you go about figuring out the right first step? You’re telling me you’d google building a house? ??
No, you’d hire someone OR you'd …?ask someone who's done it.
Which brings me to an announcement.
I’m inviting you to join me for a FREE, LIVE workshop I’m hosting:

Over the past 18 months, as I said, I’ve completed two books. That, plus the work I’ve done with clients in that time, has led me to develop a?three-step formula to articulating your book idea that saves you weeks or even months of writing in circles.
This three-step idea formula is new, so it’s not in my book,?Be About Something. But this workshop could be the next logical step if you read?Be About Something.
If you read?BAS, first of all, yay and thank you!
Second of all, if it stirred up a book idea that you shelved because you didn’t have time or didn’t really know what to do next, this free workshop is for you.
All the info about the free workshop is?here.?If you can’t make this day and time, sign up anyway because I will send a recording later that day.
Questions? Hit reply.
