Use the power of visualization. When you see, hear, and feel your book project already manifested through specific outcomes, you'll be in the 86% success group. It's far easier to perceive specific outcomes as true when visualizing them as they already happened. Claim your dream as true now in specific outcomes. This outcome, "I see myself signing autographed copies" is far more powerful than "I will autograph copies when my book is done." It's always easier to look back on what led to your success than look down than long road ahead to a doubtful success because it's so far in the future. If you're like me and are willing to be 86% successful or more, you'll want to use my "Book Dream Mental Rehearsal 5- Step System" below. I've used it for all my projects including writing compelling copy for my website home page. * Read the rest of this article at: http://www.wordpreneur.com/motivation/realize.html 10 QUICK TIPS FOR INEXPERIENCED WRITERS by V. Berba Velasco Jr., Ph.D. Category: technique http://www.wordpreneur.com/technique One of the biggest problems that inexperienced writers have is simply knowing how to get started. If you’re unsure of your writing skills, then here are some quick tips to help you get started. 1. Get yourself a thesaurus - or better yet, two of them. These can be tremendously helpful tools when you’re struggling to find the right word. A thesaurus is no substitute for a solid vocabulary, but it is still helpful in a pinch. 2. Avoid using the same word too frequently. This can make one’s work sound repetitive. Again, a good thesaurus can be helpful in this regard. 3. Keep your sentences fairly short, since longer sentences can sound unwieldy. I’ve found that 17 words or fewer is a good guideline. Do remember that this is just a guideline, though. * Read the rest of this article at: http://www.wordpreneur.com/technique/inexperienced.html FREELANCE WRITING: A CAREER FROM ANYWHERE by Gary McLaren Category: The Job http://www.wordpreneur.com/thejob An island in the Mediterranean. A beach in Africa. The east coast of New Zealand. What do all these locations have in common? A recent call for assistance from freelance writers elicited replies from every one of these locations. In each of these and in many other remote places, I know of writers who are freelancing with a fair degree of success. Indeed it is possible for freelance writers to work from anywhere. Consider my own recent experience. As the editor of the Worldwide Freelance Writer website, I publish a newsletter that goes out to thousands of freelance writers around the world. I can recall one particular issue in the middle of 2002. I started planning the newsletter in the heat and humidity of Hong Kong. When the first draft came together I was in Indianapolis, in the United States. And by the time I completed the final copy and pushed the send button I was at a lakeside cottage in Ontario, Canada, with snow lightly falling outside. Maybe you are interested in a freelance writing career but you worry about whether you live in a suitable location. Well, think again. Freelance writing is a job you can do from anywhere. It is true that if your home is near New York's editorial offices you may be able to use your proximity to some advantage. But many, many freelance writers are working successfully from more distant locations, and in many cases enjoying a better lifestyle in the places where they live. * Read the rest of this article at: http://www.wordpreneur.com/thejob/career.html ------------------------------------------------------------ VISIT E-FACTORY.COM http://www.e-factory.com 100% free and useful articles on how to build, run, and grow your very own Internet enterprise!
