Takeaways:
- If you feel called or compelled to write a book you should do it. It may not be easy but it will be worth while. Your book has the potential for impact and transformation, you have the opportunity to have a material impact on people's lives.
- Many people are waiting for “someday” to write their book but someday isn’t a day on the calendar. More often than not it takes a cataclysmic event for people to make their book a priority. But it doesn’t need to be that way. You simply have to make the decisions that your book is your priority.
- The journey and process of writing your book is the perfect opportunity to build your following and audience. By including your followers you build a core group of people who have been involved in your metamorphosis as an entrepreneur into a thought leader.
