The Haters Are Wrong About You!

How many times have you been told that you’re a failure, and you’ll never amount to anything? How many times have you been told you will never be a successful author? How many negative things have you told yourself? Well, stop believing it!

Some of the greatest, most influential writers of all time have suffered rejection. Here are a few examples for you to look at when you get discouraged about your writing.

Animal Farm, by George Orwell, received this scathing review from a publisher. “It is impossible to sell animal stories in the U.S.A.” This book went on to be named one of the 100 best English-language novels by Time Magazine. It was number 31 on the Modern Library list of the Best 20th Century Novels. It won a Retrospective Hugo Award and is included as one of the Great Books of the Western World.

The Diary of Anne Frank, by Anne Frank, was given this horrible review. “The girl doesn’t, it seems to me, have a special perception or feeling which would lift that book above the curiosity level.” Frank could have taken that review personally, but she pressed on until she found a publication that would publish her award-winning book.

If you have found yourself dealing with critics in any area of your life, then take heart. Usually, critics only attack those with which they can’t compete. You can write your book and be a great success if you choose to. It’s up to you. You can choose to become the next author millionaire, or you can let the comments of the narrow-minded critics stop you from achieving your dreams.

What will you choose? Excuses? Results?

Can a local writer build a big enough audience to attract Hollywood? I did.

Can you publish independently and build a large platform that attracts the attention of a traditional publishing house? I did.

Can an indie author make six figures a year? Yes!

This go-to guide will show you how I built a business so large that a publishing house came to me and offered to buy reprint rights to three of my books. I got the chance to tell them “no” for one of the books. I made too much money.

Have you ever been able to send a rejection letter to a publishing house? It’s a lot of fun. Trust me.

Write a book for your business in 5 easy steps:

#1. Decide
Make the decision to follow through with the project

#2. Discover the truth
You can do this! Once you realize this you are good to go. You are more than capable of writing about a topic you love. Chances are, you already have. (Blogs, Videos, articles, brochures, website content, courses, etc.) You probably already have all the content for your book.

#3. Write, Type, or Jabber…daily!
Create a daily “writing” habit. I put writing in quotes because with all the tools available today, you don’t have to hand write a single sentence if you don’t want to. Most entrepreneurs actually dictate the entire book then send it off to an editor. The point is to work on the project daily.

#4. Outline
Outline the basic topics you want to cover and then write about each topic until you finish the list. Remember, you are just telling people about you and your business. Isn’t that what entrepreneurs love to do? Just chill out. Don’t think about a book like it’s a hard thing. You’re just chatting with clients.

#5. Set a deadline
Set a deadline to keep yourself accountable to finish the project.

5 Reasons Why Writers Give Up On Their Dreams

#1 Told Repeaditly to Stop Day Dreaming

Since when is it okay to let go of the very thing that separates us from the animal kingdom? A dog cannot imagine a new invention and change the world with it. Humans alone have this power. Think about it. Every major invention, every Fortune 500 company, every skyscraper was once a figment of a dreamer’s imagination. Don’t stop dreaming! Get back in the habit of daydreaming. (Maybe not while you’re driving.)

#2 Lack of confidence

Why, would anyone want to listen to me? Well, why not you? Who said you weren’t important? Who told you that you don’t have a unique perspective to share with the world? You are an event individual. Your experiences have shaped your perspective on life. No one else will have your particular perspective. Share it with the world. Be Fearless. You’ve got this.

#3 Lack of knowledge

get off your tush and get it. libraries are still free. Get a library card. Self-help books abound at second-hand shops and garage sales. Take the incentive and do something to increase your knowledge on the subject that holds you back. online courses are everywhere for every price range imaginable. 99 cent books overflow from Amazon’s dates on a daily basis there is no excuse why you cannot get the knowledge you seek. Just do it already.

Arnold Schwarzenegger says, “you can have excuses or results, but you can’t have both.” It’s time for you to decide. What do you want?

#4 Your “why” isn’t strong enough

Why do you write? If the answer to that question isn’t strong enough, you will fail 99% of the time, guaranteed. You must have a purpose behind you to push you through the difficult times. The business of writing is tough. The days of writing a manuscript, sending it off to a publisher, and then all of your dreams coming true have disappeared long ago. Whether you choose to be traditionally published or independently published you have to learn the business aspect behind being an author. This includes marketing. This includes advertising and sales, website development, social networking skills, and much more. If you do not have a strong reason behind why you write, then you will not have the incentive to push forward and learn all of these extra skills that are necessary to succeed as a writer.

#5 Past failures

Everyone fails. Every writer has been rejected. Stephen King got rejected 30 times before he was published. He went on to publish 54 novels and 200 short stories. The Chicken Soup for the Soul books were rejected 144 times before they were ever published and we all know how popular those are. JK Rowling was rejected 12 times before Harry Potter ever saw the light of day. Dr. Seuss was rejected 27 times before his children’s books were ever accepted. Everyone is rejected so get over it. Move on. The winners keep pushing forward.
