Aaargh. Done it again. Another 9 days gone with no posts. Aah Well, Lets not dwell on such things. I have a feeling that I am going to be adding a few more in the next week. I just have so much that I want to talk about.

I have a post to make in response to a challenge where I have to write 25 things about me. I’m writing this up so that I can’t go back on accepting the challenge. I also want to make a post regarding Alex Jeffreys Coaching Program, namely the latest module I’ve listened to – Triple Threat Affiliate. This module blew me away. Something just sounded different in Alex’s voice. Or maybe I just got it???

But those are for another day. Today I just want to type up a very small news item that I noticed in one of the tabloids. We should all take what we need out of it. Nothing else to add –

“Millionaire author Ian Rankin raked in just £200 from his first novel it emerged last night.

The Rebus writer is believed to have coined in at least £3.2 million last year alone.

But he confessed to Scots actor pal Alan Cumming, 44, for a foreign TV show that he made a pittance from his debut offering.

Rankin, 48, told him: “The first book I got £200, the second book I got £600. And so it went like that for some time. But I kept writing better and better books. It was around 1998 before I could afford to buy a flat in Edinburgh” -End Article.

So why tell you this and what do I get out of it?

I think my fellow students will see what I see.

A writer now regarded as one of the best and most succesful in the UK is only that because he persevered. He could have given up but he didn’t, he got better as he learned and now he is where he wants to be.

Remember this before you give up your dreams!
