If you’re ever going to get to where you want to be, you need to be writing.
Why?
Because when you write, you share your ideas, hone your skills, and build a body of work.
A body of work that allows you to build an audience over time. An audience that shares the same goals and interests as you.
These interests create conversations and you become a likable expert.
And if you make mistakes—good! Mistakes allow you to learn.
Mistakes are essential to being an indie artist.
And although you know this to be true—you shut down. Boo!
Stop wasting that makeshift brilliance inside of you.
You know you have it. It’s the way you think about the things you’re passionate about. Transfer that enthusiasm to others.
Stop being a jerk. Stop sabotaging yourself.
You know what you need to do. Now do it.
Focus.
Write.
