Copying A Successful Person’s Technique

I gave a writing buddy
a step-by-step outline
for one technique I used
to increase my sales.

She tweaked every single step
and then she announced
the technique didn’t work for her.

I wish I could say
she was the exception
but she’s not.

This happens EVERY time.

I once worried about
what would happen
if every writer copied
some of my successful techniques.

I no longer worry about that.
I could post my techniques
on the front page
of a newspaper
and no one would follow them
the way they should be followed.

If you want a shot
at achieving the same results,
at the very least,
attempt to take the same steps.
