An author I met yesterday spoke about how dull his life is. Despite making enough money to feel as though he has earned a living writing, he still holds author events that zero people show up to and releases new books that barely sell anything. The funny part about him? He didn’t care. All he cared about was doing the writing. That brought him joy.
Another author I met is equally as successful in terms of having earned a living as an author but maintains a day job since she only creatively writes two hours in the morning each day. It was the duo of efforts that brought her joy.
Then I could go into the countless ways all the authors I met got published and to varying degrees of success.
That’s all to say that success can look like a lot of things, but none are as important as the version you want.
Once you know that, it’s far more likely you’ll end up in positions that “luck” is stepping into as well.
And all the sudden you’ve got success. The good kind. Your version.
