Though I spend a lot of time on these blog posts focused on writing a good book and getting the book finished, the whole purpose of creating these masterpieces is so that someone (hopefully more than one someone) reads them. Book sales matter to make back your time, financial investments and to spread your message. Unless someone knows your book …
How to find the motivation to keep writing is the biggest question I get. Honestly, writing a book is hard work.

Yet, I am always compassionate for others when they make a mistake. We are much more understanding of others’ mistakes than we allow for ourselves. I had the pleasure …

A couple of them give up way too easily, one tends to last a lot longer in what I would consider an average amount of tenacity, and one of them I worry at times will kill themselves from their persistent, never-say-die pigheadedness. …
