A few weeks ago I made Ā£41k in a week. Usually, Iād ride the momentum and start a launch.
This time I stopped.
Because in 2022 I had a surreal moment.
I was early in my business, and had just moved to Ibiza.
Dramatic stuff happened and I knew I needed / wanted to write a book about it.
Then it hit me.
...I couldnāt afford to.
I needed to make money.
So I focused on that first.
- Got really good at writing on LinkedIn
- Grew my audience to 78k followers
- Made my first $500k in my business
Then I knew, itās time.
So 2 weeks ago, I dropped LinkedIn content completely.
Didnāt post at all for the first time in 4 years of posting on LinkedIn.
It was HARD.
Of course there were fears:
š± What if my audience thinks I ghosted them
š± What will my clients think if Iām not posting every day
š± What if the money just... disappears?!
But I know to build a habit it takes time, especially when it comes to something as big as writing a novel.
So I decided to go full time on it.
Now Iām at 63,384 words.
Most people wait all their lives to fulfil a dream like this.
My best advice?
Do it now.
Donāt wait.
Now, Iām on track to have written my first book by 31.
Most authors debut between the ages of 36 and 45.
Funny what can happen when you put your mind to something.
Let this be your sign to create a dream bigger than your business
