38: Change Your Energy, Write Your Book: The Identity-First Approach
Manifest Your Manuscript: Clear Blocks and Write Your Book
Embodying the Successful Author Identity
The number one mistake new authors make when they set out to write their books doesn't have anything to do with outlining, planning, or even book positioning.
—> It has to do with identity.
You'll hear how starting from a place of lack can muck up the writing process. Instead, when you see yourself as a successful author before and while you write, you shift your energy and even your approach.
A successful author moves differently through the world than someone who wants to be one.
The cool part is that this makes the entire book-writing process way more enjoyable and effective.
Key Takeaways:
Don't wait until your book is a bestseller to embody the energy of a bestseller author—this creates a mindset of scarcity.
The power of identity shifts, and by starting with BE-ing a successful author, you change your energy and approach to writing, editing, and the entire publication process.
Successful authors have beliefs and emotions that someone wishing they were an author doesn't. Write your book from a mindset of KNOWING that your book is changing lives, you're receiving speaking requests, and 5-star reviews are stacking up.
Managing any negative thoughts that creep in while writing is key (I share my effective "cancel process with you)
Reminding yourself that you ARE an author with a fabulous book infuses your words with that great energy.
