Writing a book isn’t one of those things that you should wait for. You shouldn’t put it off until a future “someday” because writing a book can really change your life today. You might have started with planning and plotting your idea but then didn’t feel it was good enough or you aren’t ready to write. But the truth is no one is ever ready to write a book. You just have to make the choice and commitment to do it.
On this week’s episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk about why now is the right time to start writing the book that’s been on your heart and ways you can finally do it successfully.

There’s never been a better time to write a book. We no longer have to wait for permission, wait for an agent to accept you, or wait for a publisher to accept the agent's query. This doesn’t mean that traditional publishing isn’t still around, but you can write and publish your book right now without waiting for a gatekeeper.
On this week’s episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk about how you can write and publish your book in as little as ninety days, how you can deal with resistance while writing your book, and how important it is to be part of an author community.

Sometimes it's easy to get stuck in your head when it comes to writing a book. One of the biggest challenges I hear from writers is fear: fear that their book will suck, no one will read it, or their peers will think it’s bad. This is a common fear that can keep us from writing our books or finishing because we want to please other people.
In reality, whether or not your books are good or bad is not up to you. Readers get to choose what is good or bad. You don't need to be better at writing or have a better idea than anyone else. Your book is meant to come out of you because you are its unique messenger.
On this week’s episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk about our biggest fears as authors and ways to help silence those fears and get motivated to write our books.

Once you reach your goals in life, then what do you do? What’s next? This question is what inspired Bruce Turkel to pivot from running a successful ad agency for decades to selling it and becoming a public speaker. He had experienced burnout as most people do in their careers and needed to change something in his life. As a public speaker, he has found ways to use all of his talents of drawing, design, and what he learned running the ad agency.
In this episode of Authors Who Lead, I talk with Bruce about branding and creativity, and his newest book, “Is That All There Is? What Are You Doing for the rest of Your Life?” and how it transformed his life.
