No Time for Regrets

No time for regrets
“Regret for wasted time is more wasted time,” Mason Cooley
Time is something that we all use as an excuse for not doing something that we claim is one of our dreams. Think of all those things you don't have time for - there's a lot right?
I meet lots of people who say: “I want to write a book, but I don’t have time.” However, they have time to watch Netflix, wander around the shops buying things they don’t need, and any number of other activities used to procrastinate.
If you do want to write a book and believe you don’t have time, look at your day and see where you could carve an hour out – just one hour. This could be your lunch break, or just after dinner instead of watching TV or even getting up an hour earlier. Or perhaps you can spare three slots of 20 minutes – it all adds up.
You will always find time to do things you really want to do. If you genuinely can’t find the time for one hour a day then you probably don’t want to write a book that much.
If, however, you do want to do it, and don’t want to regret it later in life, perhaps I can help you get started.
I offer a three-month mentoring programme to help you kickstart your book. We will create an extensive plan, a realistic writing schedule and I can guide on writing style, formatting and direction. Why not take the first step towards your dream and email or call
