There’s a bit of luck
in every success
but the biggest factors
are hard work
and constant learning.
I currently have a series
that is selling very well.
However, I have 100,
yes, 100 other stories
that don’t sell very well.
I simply continued to write,
continued to learn
about the craft, the business,
continued to grow my readership,
and I eventually got ‘lucky.’
“Now, more than ever,
attitude trumps background,
productivity defeats ignorance,
particularly when it comes
to the work done on the frontier,
on the edges of creativity,
where answers are still being found.”
Just do it.
Nike coined this slogan
in 1988
and it still holds true today.
