Too often, it’s not the world that’s holding us back. It’s our own mindset. 💭

We autosabotage, telling ourselves we’re “not good enough” or don’t “deserve” certain opportunities. These thoughts quietly destroy our chances before we even try.

It’s time to recognize your worth and stop letting fear write your story. You are capable. You do deserve success, and amazing opportunities are waiting. Don’t let self-doubt stand in your way. 🚀

If you landed a blogging gig that paid $500 per blog post, how would you respond to that opportunity? I bet you'd say, "Yes! I'd be happy to write blog posts for you!" - If your literary agent said, “It’s my intention to get you a $50,000 to $75,000 advance for your book,” how would you react?...

Some mornings, it feels like the only thing standing between you and a coherent sentence is a venti latte. Others, it’s not the caffeine; it’s the courage.

Coffee: 1 cup = barely awake.
Coffee: 2 cups = words start forming.
Coffee: 3 cups = you’re basically a human espresso shot.

Confidence: 1 breath = heart racing.
Confidence: 2 breaths = palms sweaty, still typing.
Confidence: 3 breaths = you hit “send” or step up to speak, and… magic happens.

Here’s the thing: Coffee can wake up your body, but courage wakes up your potential. You can sip cappuccinos all day, but no amount of caffeine will give you the thrill of sharing your ideas, telling your story, or standing up for what you believe in.

☕ + 💪 = unstoppable.

Most authors make this mistake…

They write their book, publish it, and then start thinking about marketing.
By that point, you’ve already missed valuable opportunities.

The truth? 📚
Your marketing should start long before your book is published.

While you’re still writing, you can be building anticipation, growing your audience, and creating connections that will make launch day powerful instead of stressful.

Even with no book to promote, one author finds that writing a monthly newsletter nourishes her life and craft in surprising ways.

⏰ The greatest inspiration is the… deadline?

Let’s be honest. It often feels true. Nothing lights a fire under us like the pressure of a looming due date. Suddenly, the words flow, the ideas click, and we make it happen.

But relying only on deadlines is a dangerous habit. It creates stress, limits creativity, and often leaves us wondering what more we could have done with just a little extra time.

When it comes to writing your book, the goal shouldn’t be to sprint at the last moment. zit should be to build a steady rhythm, one page at a time, long before the deadline arrives.

Deadlines can be powerful motivators, but consistency is what creates clarity, confidence, and ultimately … excellence.

👉 Don’t let the deadline be your only source of inspiration. Let your vision and your message drive you. The world is waiting for your book.

If you’re still hiding in the shadows on social media … you’re hiding from opportunity.

I get it. Putting yourself out there feels scary.
What will people think?
What if it’s not perfect?
What if no one responds?

Visibility changes everything.

The moment you stop letting shyness run the show and start showing up consistently online, your reach, credibility, and opportunities multiply, often 10x faster than you imagined, especially if you’ve written (or are writing) a book.

A book is a powerful calling card - but only if people know it exists.
Every post is a chance to connect with future readers, clients, collaborators, and fans.

The more you share, the more your book and your message become impossible to ignore.
Stop waiting for “ready.” Show up. Speak up. Post up.

Your career and your book’s success depend on it.

Somewhere on my laptop, there’s a dusty folder called Book Draft - Final FINAL (Spoiler: It’s not final).

It sat there for months, maybe longer, while I convinced myself I was “waiting for inspiration.”
The truth? I was avoiding it.

I had hit that stage every writer knows: when your idea no longer feels shiny, the middle feels messy, and you start asking yourself, "Who am I to write this anyway?"

But here’s what I learned:
Momentum isn’t magic. It’s built by showing up, especially when you don’t feel like it. The day I finally opened that file again, I didn’t write a masterpiece. I wrote one messy, clunky paragraph. But it got me moving. The next day, I wrote more. A week later, I found my flow again.

If you’ve been procrastinating on your book or feel like giving up, don’t. You’re not starting over; you’re picking up where you left off, stronger and wiser than before.

Your book isn’t just a project. It’s a promise to yourself, and every time you return to it, you prove you’re keeping that promise.

📖 Keep going. Even if today it’s only 10 minutes. The you in the future will thank you for not walking away.
