The Creative Penn Podcast For Writers

CHAPTER

How to Avoid Comparisonitis

We all compare ourselves to others and sometimes that can drive us towards the things we want. For me it's always been freedom and if you've been listening to the show you will know this. Freedom is my main value in life, I still have two songs on my Spotify playlist from my teenage years. There's only one way of life and that's your own. The other song is One Way by the Levelers from 1991. Make choices around being physically out there as an indie author but also about what kind of money you're after. Creative Pen slash books are a lot of stuff which go into investment because I want to be free when I'm older.
