Why You Need to Play The Long Game With Your Dreams...

Before I wrote a book, I wrote 3,500 blog posts over the course of 17 years. Of those 3,500, I think 3,000 of them sucked. I would admit that they sucked. So the pain and the endurance that it took to get to that point where I was like, okay, now I think I'm ready to write a book. 17 years. 17 years, yeah. And I probably could have written a book after year five or something, but it wouldn't have been very good to get to a point where I was like, okay, I think I'm ready to do this with 17 years of writing every single day. And even then, the book could have done 5,000 sales. Absolutely. That's what we thought it would do. I see this a lot. with new bloggers as well, where they'll be like, I started a blog and I wrote two posts and nobody read it, so I gave up. And I'm like, yeah, you gotta write 3,000 more. And by the way, if you can keep that up, people are gonna tell, every day they're gonna tell you how dumb you are, how bad of a writer you are, and you just gotta bite your lip and endure it.
