A word on the book I’m writing:
I’ve done some significant work on it this morning.
I got up at 5.30 and focused on what I want to achieve with it so began by asking again:
- Who’s it for?
- What’s it for?
Setting the alarm so early on a Sunday morning means I’m going to make sure it’s worthwhile, and I’m less likely to poke around on Facebook or Instagram, or waste time on a Buzzfeed quiz that asks how many English football grounds I’ve been to.
Focus leads to habit which builds momentum and delivers results. And I need to get my first draft done so that I can move on to the second and finish the thing.
So, the results of the “significant work”?
I’ve decided to document the whole process of self-publishing because I want other people – you? – to be able to do the same.
I’ll always promote the idea of pursuing a project based on creative expression because creativity, especially when we’re faced with AI, ML and other emerging technology, is our best differentiator.
The first thing I have to do is recognise all the work I’ve already done: blog posts on these pages and notes in Evernote and notebooks. A whole body of work needs organising and moving into the right places.
