Back in the saddle - and feeling GOOOOOOD

OK, 2015 will be the year.

I have started writing a self-help book following the guidelines by TAG Publishing called 'Write Your Book in 30 Days'. I know, I know - we've read stuff like this before but this time I'm going to follow it through.  You are welcome to join me on the journey.


Day 1

I read through the guidelines and made notes - well planning is SO important. I wouldn't like to rush into anything. Well I did rush into a bit of it. I started the introduction then read that you do that after you've written the whole thing. Here is is as far as I got  . . . . .

It’s January 2015 and I’m reading a book I have downloaded. It’s one of those inspirational self-help how-to-live-and-work better, happier and more rewarding books.

It is called ‘Out of Office – work where you like & achieve more’ by Chris Ward.

I was invited to go and hear him speak but I had already committed to working somewhere else that day, so I thought I would read the book instead. I enjoyed it. I was taken with the ideas. But I thought to myself ‘I can’t change the way I do things now. I’m 58, for Heaven’s sake.’  Then I thought again.

                Is 58 too late?

Hell, no! Notice I've already gone from Heaven to Hell?

                58 isn't too late.

That’s when I decided I would write and self-publish an e-book. 

That’s when I decided I would self-publish the novel I wrote a few years ago. 

That’s when I decided I would venture out of my lovely-but-sometimes-lonely office. 

That’s when I thought I could use (and share) my skill, knowledge and talent in a wider and more creative way.

Come with me on my journey and pick up some tips to do what you really want to do.  IT IS NOT TOO LATE.

I will share with you stories of some people who have found success and happiness in a late career change.

·      Some I know personally.

·      Some just happened upon success.

·      Some had been in jobs that were made redundant.

·      Some were desperate and had to do something.

·      Some simply turned a hobby into a business.

·      Some, I am proud to say, I helped on their journey by providing coaching support.
