'Maximize
Your Greatest Asset..Yourself!'
looks like a great self-help guide. Any plans for additional themed
books?
I will have a short ebook called “Fear Factor: How to unmask and
overcome fear” set to be released in May. I also have a 10-month
coaching program based on “'Maximize
Your Greatest Asset..Yourself!' entitled
Maximize Yourself.
What
do you think makes a great guide?
I
believe it’s a great guide because it builds the foundation of a
person to gain confidence to pursue their dreams. I believe it is
important to deal with the mindset before taking action to walk in
our purpose. If a person does not believe they will reach their
dream, they won’t.
What
inspired you when writing 'Maximize
Your Greatest Asset..Yourself!'?
I
was in a place where I thought I had arrived but I began to feel
uncomfortable and stuck. It forced me to assess my life and start
asking myself serious questions and one of them was 'is this where I
want to be in the next 20 years?' I knew there was more to my life
and I went back to my dream of being an author. There are many people
who feel the same way so I wanted to share my tips with them.
What
are your ambitions for your writing career? Full time? Part -time?
I currently write part-time in different genres (children's and
self-help). I write based on inspiration and empowerment.
When
did you decide to become a writer?
I
wrote my first self-help book in 2005. I had no idea the process of
writing and getting a book published but I knew I had a story to
tell. I did a little bit of research and sent my manuscript to a
publishing company which was rejected. It discouraged me from writing
books for many years until 2017.
When
writing 'Maximize
Your Greatest Asset..Yourself!'
did anything stand out as particularly challenging?
It
was challenging being vulnerable with my stories. My goal is to truly
help people get to the point where they are taking actions steps to
reach their dreams. I know if I can do it so can others. Therefore, I
share my stories to show that despite hardships that life can bring,
you can still pursue your purpose.
How
did you come up with the story of 'Maximize
Your Greatest Asset..Yourself!'?
I
went through a lot of formidable situations in life, some were what
others have done to me and some was what I did to myself. I wanted to
share these stories and how I overcame them. Most importantly, I want
to share steps to help others build their foundations so their house
of dreams can stand.
What
do you like to do when not writing?
I
love helping people to help them discover that everything they need
is on the inside of them.
I
also enjoy vacationing and spending time with my family.
