Here Is The Exact Reason You Are Struggling To Write Your Book by Bossuhzi(m): 3:45pm On Jan 12, 2022 |
HERE IS THE EXACT REASON YOU ARE STRUGGLING TO WRITE YOUR BOOK After reading the business of writing books by Edirin Edewor in February 2020, I was ignited to write my first book but there were some challenges I encountered. I’m going to tell you the challenge I encountered and how I scaled through. This could help you to start writing your own book. Let me try to play what may be your present reality. - You really want to write a book - You believe your knowledge can help people - You feel you are a good writer - You believe people need to hear what you have to say. - You know what you want to write but you don’t know how to start. Here’s why; 1. You don’t read: Remember I said I was ignited to write my first book after I finished reading a book about writing. The truth is that you cannot give what you don’t have, what you need to do now is to go and read a book on how to write. 2. You don’t have a mind map: In my first book, I wrote up to 10 pages and found out I was just writing rubbish because I didn’t have my mind map document. What is a mind map, In regards to writing a book, it’s a document or a piece where you write out - What you want to write, - why you are writing the book, - when you want to start and finish writing and - how you intend to do that. This is a clarity document that will automatically become an accountability partner. 3. You are not disciplined to write: Discipline is doing what you have to do when you said you’ll do it whether you like it or not. So if you say you’ll write 500words from 2-3pm and you are on Instagram scrolling aimlessly then you are wrong. 4. You are not even focused: You are probably feeding some other issues rather than attending to your book project. You cannot chase two rabbits and catch both, focus on one thing. 5. You are a procrastinator: You keep saying tomorrow I’ll start and tomorrow never ends. So what should you be doing now ? Firstly, read about what you want to write about Secondly, create a mind map Thirdly, Start writing. I wish you all the best �� Your faithfully, Uzoma Oranebo (Bossuhzi)
