This week has been epic. I read at my first readers’ event with some incredible authors.
And I became a bestselling author.
Nora Roberts Land took the #1 spot on my beloved B&N, #10 on iTunes, and #24 on Amazon. Holy freaking frijoles.
Yes, folks. Following my bliss has manifested into achievement, and it’s also made me so happy and joyful that my heart has simply burst from it. I can’t count how much I’ve laughed and screamed and thrown my arms up in total joy these last days. It was incredible!
A friend told me last night how happy she is to see me so happy. She knows I quit my old career with faith and trust that writing was what I was meant to be doing. That I left behind the stable, the certain (the regular paycheck and benefits) to make my living as a writer. She told me she’s inspired by my example.
And do you know why?
Because when we see someone else follow their passion and throw caution to the wind and it actually PAYS off, it gives us faith that the dream inside our hearts (whether buried or known) actually might work out for us if we follow our guidance and take the first step.
If you think I have not had days of doubt, you’re wrong. But I’ve always believed in my message. Always believed the Divine was going to bring the right readers to read my books. And look where we are.
My heart is filled with gratitude. For you and for me. I did it, and you found me. It’s all manifesting in perfect order.
So, now what about you? Are you in the job you really want? Are you doing what makes your heart sing? Are you doing something you’re proud of? Come on, take the leap. I’ll be here to cheer you on. Because when one of us succeeds, we show others it’s possible.
It’s possible for you. I just know it! So go on. Leap already!
