SPA Girls Podcast – Ep403 – How Not To Fail at Self-publishing

In this episode, we’re looking at failure and putting a different slant on it. By changing the way you think of failing at a certain thing and thinking of it as simply a part of learning. You are future proofing the way you react to any result.

Fail = First Attempt In Learning.

Don’t measure yourself by how others are doing. They had their own journey and would have failed at something along the way. Successful people use those moments to push through, pivot, or try a new iteration. Learning is a part of the process.

Letting go of a perception is hard, we get that. However, you shouldn’t let that outcome define you. Don’t dwell on it. Instead, find a way to deal with it and to stop the negative talk. A way that moves you forward.

Tips:

Try not to compare your achievements with other authors.

When you don’t succeed, ask yourself if you put everything into the attempt.

Can you write a different genre?

Do you need more eyes on your work?

Look at your process – did you follow it?

Take the word fail out of your vocabulary.

Find the next thing that will work for you.

Do the best you can every time you start something.
