Has Procrastination become a Giant towering over your book? Use these Seven weapons and destroy procrastination forever!

Have you been guilty of procrastinating on your book project, lately? Like the author, many writers get hung up with wrong thinking about writing and completing their books. They feel like a loser because they have stopped and started countless of times over the years.

They fail to realize you actually become a winner the minute you start moving toward your worthwhile goal. Instead they continue procrastinating until they give up. A client confessed she thought writing a book was too hard.

Knowledge and know-how can be formed into a weapon that will destroy the power of procrastination. Using the 7 weapons below writers can conquer the giant procrastination and finally realize their book dream.

Weapon #1 Do it Now!

Now is better than later. Remember you become a successful author
the minute you start moving toward your worthwhile book goal. I
don't know anyone that regrets they wrote a book. But the author
has met plenty of people that regret they didn't do it sooner.

Weapon #2 Invest time in designing your passion points "top marketing spots" beforehand!

Spend time on developing the passion points designed to sell more before your book is even completed The passion points are the title, cover, thesis, audience, benefits & features, mini sales letter written as introduction and back cover copy of each book. For example, at least half of the book's success will be on the title you choose.

Weapon #3 Know you don't have to be a degreed expert, great
writer or do loads of research.

Write books you are interested in and want to learn more about.
As you look for information, talk to experts and write, you become
the expert. Find out what questions your readers will want answered. Organize them into categories which become your table of contents and eventually your chapters. Remember there are interested readers who are waiting for your helpful information.

Weapon #4 Realize your message is significant and deserves your
attention, love and time.

Consider what your readers need and want. If your book shares something unique, encouraging, useful, entertaining, it is important enough to be written. Think about your gift? God gave you your gift to share with others. Our gift back to God is what we do with it. The loving care you put into your gift (book) the more rewards await you.

Weapon #5 Recognize your book will sell with your marketing efforts

It's true not everyone will want to buy your book. Yet there are
plenty of your targeted audiences that will want your entertaining
or helpful information. The world awaits your self-help, how-tos,
business, or poetry book. When you take the time to touch their
emotions with something that benefits them, they will pull out their redit card or cash and pay the price. Top selling non-fiction topics are self- help, mysteries, parent/children, sex and romance. Remember women buy 78% of all trade books.

If you have been succumbing to procrastination, take a different
strategy use the perspective and 7 weapons above to overcome any giant called procrastination keeping you from fulfilling your book dream.
