You may cringe when you read this list of ten things that are keeping you from writing your book, because it rings too close to home for you.

1. I can’t seem to find the time.

2. Every time I sit down to write, I go blank.

3. I need an uninterrupted time period to immerse myself.

4. I need clarity on my message, but there’s no one to consult with.

5. I don’t know where to start or how to organize all the chapters.

6. I’m afraid of losing clients and having my business suffer if I take time away from it to write my book.

7. I agonize over the writing, the grammar, the sentence structure and punctuation.

8. I know what I have to say, just can’t put it into written form without losing clarity and impact.

9. I keep thinking about all the time involved in writing the book, and wonder if it will ever bring me the results I want.
