One. Take One or More High Level Actions Each Day

Another to do, you groan? Not really. If you don't make your book one of the top three priorities in your life, it won't finish it.

Get real. How many hours can you give to your book a week?

If not ten, I say you may never get your book out. Clients get so discouraged when they don't do their fieldwork for our coaching calls, so I came up with one solution of doing one High Level Activity or more each day for five days a week. (HLAs) Go ahead; take the weekend off like I do.

Some HLA steps include:

- Write on a chapter that you have passion for first.
- Write 2-3 pages a day on just one chapter.
- Finish one chapter before you move on.
- Write 3-6 questions you need to answer for your audience for each chapter before you write a word.
- Read a book on how to put a chapter together the fast way
- Write in your organizer each day the specific HLAs you will do
- Contact a book coach who has low-cost teleclasses, small group coaching groups, or writes books on the topic you need help on.
- Write a sample chapter introduction with a hook and thesis to direct your reader to the meat.
-Write compelling copy so your reader will turn all the pages and recommend your book to others.

Take Action: My HLAs for Wednesday, date, year

1. Contact a cover person for my how to book
2. Answer three questions for chapter 6. For example,
- Can I write print or eBook at the same time?
- What's the best eBook format for my book’s purpose and me?
- How much will it cost to self- publish? (A lot less than you think)
- Add front and back material to sell more copies

Think of the Payoffs
