Join our Free Facebook Group ​ Author Pledge​ Self Contract ​ Would you like to learn the daily habits of successful authors? Let us take a look at what are some of the daily habits that most successful authors follow. I am a huge believer in daily rituals and habits and I believe that what we do on a daily basis is the sum total which reflects the quality of our overall life. Daily Rituals also apply to book writing since the overall quality of your book will be determined by the quality of your daily rituals. Today, I will be sharing with you 5 daily habits of successful authors.

Why your book will never bring you clients? If you think you’re going to magically convert all your readers into your clients for your business, then I’m sorry, you’re mistaken. That is never going to happen unless you follow the two methods that I’m going to be sharing with you today. I see a lot of authors complain that although they’ve written the book, published it, and marketed it well, and even went on to become a best-seller, it’s just not generating leads for their business! Now, who do you think is to blame for this? Definitely not your readers! Join our Free Facebook Group - https://www.happyselfpublishing.com/tribe

To get you out of a tight spot, I will debunk a (nothing but a) myth and tell you 3 reasons why your readers will still sign up for your coaching.

Why establish your purpose for writing a book? Welcome to Author Success Stories! Today's very special guest is Kelsey Smith!

Let us explore a little bit about this concept of leaving behind a legacy. Have you ever thought of what your legacy is going to be like? I know that at some point in your life, you had. In fact, most human beings have this inherent urge to leave something behind mainly because we understand that human life is not permanent. Nothing is permanent! Once we understand the very temporary nature of human life and realize that we are not going to be on this planet for long, it creates the urge to be wanted to be remembered when we pass away. Because of this understanding, we want to leave behind some trace of our life that can be relevant to the generations that will come after us. I believe this is where our need to leave a legacy stems from. Now, let's talk about some of the common ways some people do in order to leave a legacy.
