Are you certain you really want to do that?
Some people have very strong desires to become famous whether through performing on stage or becoming a well-known author, and announce to the world this is so. But their actions tell a different story.
Time and again, I have heard that an author’s lifelong dream was a breath away from taking place, but at the last second, that author could not bring him or herself to push the “send” button. Panic set in.
Admittedly, the first time around, pressing the send button is very scary. What if the publisher does not like what you wrote? How can you face the humiliation after having spent perhaps years on the manuscript?
Let me turn the questions around. What if the publisher were to very much like your manuscript, but you chose not to send it? How would you feel looking back and realizing a gigantic missed opportunity?
With every wish comes reality; as they say be careful for what you wish for. And when your wish appears to be coming true, turn your mindset to running with it because deep down, that is what you are truly passionate about. By following your dreams, your business development, marketing and sales will begin to flow, and will develop into a Smooth Sale.
