Want to write a book? It takes time, energy, and patience. Make sure you are doing it for the right reasons.
There are TWO right reasons:
- You want to. If you are only writing a book because people keep telling you that you need to write a book – you have good stories, an interesting background, a unique system or methodology – then that is not enough. You also need to want to write it.
- You have something to say. Just because it is easier than ever to publish in our tech-centric world, it does not mean everyone should do it. You need to have something new, fresh, thought out, and well-executed, so it reflects well on you and your business.
That’s it. Now, all you need is the time and tenacity to write a book. And perhaps a little guidance.
