Notes from this episode:

How do writers get beyond fear and self-sabotage? Fear and self-sabotage are common issues amongst writers. Writers deal with fear, self-doubt, and insecurity. It’s important to recognize that fear and self-sabotage are spiritual battles. Remember who you’re writing for and why you’re doing it – to encourage and inspire others.

Here are some signs of self-sabotage:

  • Waiting until the last minute for deadlines
  • Starting projects but not finishing them
  • Dwelling on negative thoughts or past failures

Steps to overcome fear and self-sabotage:

  1. Recognize it
  2. Replace lies with truth and have a prayer team
  3. Get organized
  4. Start small, with just 15 minutes
  5. Get used to clicking publish

Replace lies with the truth, study more about love and who God is. Ask for prayer support and get organized by decluttering your workspace.Start small, with just 15 minutes of focused writing. 

Get used to sharing your writing by clicking publish on social media or a blog post. Remember, your voice matters, and your words have the power to impact lives.

Take a Step of Faith and Finally Finish Your Book
