Have you ever diligently followed someone's "foolproof" business strategy only to watch it fail spectacularly? The problem might not be the strategy itself, but whether your soul was truly in it.
Strategies won't work if they don't align with who you are at your core. That constriction you feel in your body when considering certain approaches isn't random – it's your internal guidance system sending a critical message. The best marketing formulas, email sequences, and publishing schedules in the world can't overcome misalignment with your authentic self.
Think of business strategies like recipes. You can follow someone else's exactly, but the magic happens when you take what resonates and add your own unique spice. When you create from a place of genuine alignment, that energy transfers to your readers. They feel your passion, your purpose, and they connect with it in ways they never could with content created from burnout or obligation.
I've learned to embrace messy action over perfect planning. We don't need rigid formulas about book length, genre conventions, or publication schedules. True creative success comes from breaking free of these constraints and taking inspired, passionate action that might look chaotic from the outside but feels deeply right within. The books I wrote while exhausted and pushing through never connected with readers the way I hoped, because that low energy was embedded in every word.
The most powerful shift in my creative business came when I committed to only pursuing paths that light my soul on fire. When you write in that flow state – where you later wonder "Did I really write that?" – you're creating work that will genuinely resonate with your ideal readers.
