What does your book look like?

What does your book look like?

Imagine your life as a novel.

Different chapters are different versions of you throughout your life.

What would you want to read?

What kind of book do you want to live in?

Make it a great book.


You don’t know how long or short that book will be.

All you can do is control what you can while your book is open.

Everything else is not up to you.

You have no idea who will like the book.

You don’t know who’s going to criticize the book.

You don’t know who’s going to hate the book.

The only person whose opinion of the book matters is yours.

Are you going to enjoy your book?

Are you going to be happy with the choices you made and the directions your life took?

Do you want to read a novel where everything happens to someone instead of someone who takes charge of their life?

Take charge of your novel.

No one else is going to change it for you.

It’s up to you.

What story would make you happy and smile?

A story about someone who wastes away their time and feels sorry for themselves?

Or a person who takes action, no matter how hard it is, to build the life he/she wants?

I know what book I’d like.

Take control of your book.

Write the novel you want to read.

What do you want your book to look like?
