The best thing is that I can share my thoughts with so many people and relly make a difference in a persons life. There is nothing more rewarding than when I get emails from people whose life has changed by using my tools.

Don't think to far ahead. Set a goal, divide it with the days you want the project to be done in and get started. Have the discipline to write every day and don't worry so much, just write. You can always edit something you have, but you can never edit something you don't have.

As a writer you are not always inspired to write, that is why I set goals and make sure to write in the mornings before the world wakes up. When I am working on a book I write every day five days a week, then I rest on the weekends to get inspired. My mission to help others achieving their dreams also help me a lot, that is my why and my mission is bigger than myself.

After I got fired I finally got the courage to go after what I have wanted for so long. I wanted to inspire and guide people to succeed better in sports, business and life. I figured that in order to get speaking gigs I needed to have a book, that would make me sound smart, right?
I also wanted to see if my success tools would work on a new area like writing a book. I set the bar high and figured that when I didn't had any backup plan anymore it was either go hard or go home.
The Goal looked like this:
Goal: Write a book about Goalsettings in 40 days.
100 pages in Word text size 12 (I googled it and found out that about 100 pages will be 160 pages in a book)
100 pages divided by 40 days = 2,5 pages a day.
Every day I walked to the beautiful library in Halmstad (Sweden), ordered a Cappuccino with a doubleshot of espresso and began to write.
Was it easy every day?
No!
Did I do it?
Yes, I did!
By being disciplined and taking small steps (2,5 pages) every day I succeeded to write my book. How I got my book published is a whole nother story.
The result became The Goal Book, who is currently one of the most sold books in self development in Sweden and also recently published in the US.
To be totally honest with you, I am surprised that I succeeded, but I did it by implementing the same strategies I did as an athlete and the same strategy that I write about in The Goal Book. If a regular guy like me can succeed, I am certain that you can too.
All you need to do is find the tools that works for you and get started.
