Moriam S. Balogun I go easy on myself. For me, writers block is your mind telling you to take a rest and relax more. I believe inspiration comes when your mind is at ease and the pressure if off. When we allow ourselves to do this, we create more space for the flow of creativity.
Moriam S. Balogun Haha! Again, I'm still getting used to such a title. The one thing I love about writing this type of book is that I could put my whole self into it. This book is quite personal in the sense that everyone can relate to it and the subjects covered are things that apply to everyone at one point or another in their life. It's really great to be able to write about things that matter and connect with people who have experienced, or, who are experiencing the same.
Moriam S. Balogun Gosh! I too am a debut writer but as with everything, 'start where you are, do what you can, use what you have" which is a quote from Arthur Ashe. I'd say, get your ideas down on to paper as soon as possible. Don't get too overwhelmed with all the tips and advice there is to find on the internet and through various books and media.

At the same time, be critical of your own work. When you're writing, you have to be honest with yourself but not to the point of you giving yourself nonconstructive feedback. Its a lot of work, but it's absolutely worth it! Go for it!
Moriam S. Balogun Right now, I have a few ideas for a possible future book which will most likely be along the lines of the same subject but focusing on a different angle. Apart from that I'm an entrepreneur, so, I'm working a lot on my business. I'm taken it a little slower with the business so that I can focus more on the launch of this book - which is a whole new world for me. I've learnt so much in a short period and I'm grateful for the experience.
Moriam S. Balogun I'm not really a book writer, although I have written many creative and business documents over the last 15 years but that's not the same as writing a book. I suppose the main similarity is that creative proposals and business document require lots of structure and organization. That experience certainly help me in writing my book.

My inspiration comes from my intuition. It may sound odd, but I trust in the ideas and signals I receive. Sometimes its a flash thought which is very subtle and on other times it can even come via a dream. On top of that, I'm quite disciplined in the sense that if I get I idea and it feels really good, then I have to put it directly into action.
Moriam S. Balogun In 2013 I started a Facebook community with the idea of sharing universal insights and my experience of using the Law of Attraction. The community was, and still is, extremely active and it was clear that many people wanted more information and tips on how to create a greater life for themselves. As the community grew I received more questions and requests for help from them. I realized that there was still so much to tell and over the next few years I decided to compile it into a book which is called The Unseen - How Positive Thoughts & Feelings define Potential and impacts your Reality.
