We all start from Zero. There is no writer that starts knowing everything about the field they starting in and that's okay. 

Start where you are and don't wait till you have enough "knowledge, resources, and money. 

Everyone grows into who they are supposed to be. 

So be patient and take it a step at a time, a day at a time and so on. 

Use what you have no matter how little it is. 

Don't let anything stop you from pursuing your goal of being an author.

Do we need to hear people tell us how good we are to be successful as authors? 

There definitely needs to be a balance when it comes to validation. Yes we do need validation but that can't be our focus and something we need to look for as authors. 

We need to be able to motivate ourselves and to be able to do things even when no one is behind us. 

Writing can be a lonely job at times so we need to learn to change the locus of control from being external to internal.

Remember, you have something worth sharing. 

Today I am celebrating the 50th episode on this podcast and what a journey it's being to this point. There have been highs and there have been lows but I am still here. 

In this episode I talk about one of the main things that have kept me going as an author and that is to not give up. 

If you are going to succeed at anything in life don't give up no matter how hard it is. 

And especially as an author, you are going to face some really tough challenges that might convince to give it up but you need to keep at it. You are building something amazing as an author and there will be opposition but don't give up. 

I would like to thank all my listeners for taking the time to listen to what I have to say. I really appreciate it.

It's so important to surround yourself with the right people as you pursue your goals and dreams. 

And the sad reality is that there are always people who don't see or don't want to see the potential you have. 

And because we are unsure of ourselves we let anyone tell us what we can and can do. 

You need to back yourself and believe in yourself. Make sure you have people in your life that are pushing you to accomplish all that you want to do and who challenge you. 

I would love to hear your thoughts on the episode so make sure to comment. You can do so here or on my Facebook page.

And remember, you have something worth sharing. 

As an author you need to learn to back yourself up. You need to be your own greatest fan because there are not too many of those around. 

If you don't believe in what you are creating then that is when you are more prone to the negative feedback you will receive. 

And you need to be able to critic yourself in a healthy way because there is a right and wrong way to do. One can leave you deflated and one can propel you to achieve more.

Another key to success as an author is having the ability to change. 

There are habits, mindsets and attitudes we have learned that are hindering us from advancing in our craft which we need to let go.

But there is a problem, its not easy. 

As people we love comfort, we seek it. 

Hence the need and importance of letting go outdated mindsets, negative attitudes and habits. 

You need courage to unlearn and learn new things. It's all about intentionality on your part. 

It's also about transparency and it's about being humble and admitting you need help. 

You need the right people around you.

There is a very popular saying that goes along the lines of, 

"If you want to go fast, go alone; but if you want to go far, go together."

In this episode I talk to Tawanda Chihambakwe who is a drone professional. 

He has been in the drone industry for over ten years and in that time he has co-authored two books (Drone Professional 1 and Drone Professional 2) which have both been the number one best selling books on Amazon. We talk about the process of writing a book with others and the pros and cons of collaboration. We also talk about what you need to think about when wanting to collaborate with a person or people.

One of the trademarks of a great author is patience. We all need to learn to be patient especially as authors and writers because the truth of the matter is that not everything is in our control. There are aspects of writing that are in our control and somethings that are not in our control. 

What's important is what we do with the things we can't control. 

Impatience can rob us of creating the best product for the people we are targeting. 

We can even compromise on the quality and overlook mistakes all in the name of "getting the book" out but as an author we need patience to endure the process of publishing. 

I would love to hear your thoughts on the topic. Do you struggle with impatience?
