The Start of a New Year; The Start of Writing My First Book

Happy New Year!

This is the time of year many develop new goals and resolutions for the New Year. I am always working towards goals and I don’t wait until the start of a new year to begin pursuing my goals. Over the last year and a half I have been working to turn an idea into a reality. Many hours of reading, researching and developing a new concept so I can then write a book and create a couple training programs.

As I work my way down my list of goals towards the book and by sheer chance, today I began the next phase of this project. The writing process has begun! Beginning writing on New Year’s Day was not by design, but fun timing.

As you focus and work towards your goals, I will be hustling away right there with you. I am taking 2015 on and going to make it a year of accomplishing big things. Let’s rock this year out together!

My objectives:

  • Develop rough outline
  • Revisit outline
    • Writing order of each chapter
    • Break down SMART goals for each chapter
  • Write per the order decided on from above
  • Evaluate and build goals for the next steps

As you see I am breaking things down into smaller sizes. To look at the big picture and say “I’m going to write a book,” is well…rather overwhelming for me. Using the good ole K.I.S.S. principle; Keep It Simple and Structured (yes I modified the last “S”).

Here we go!
