How To Quickly Reinvent Yourself

Hello there, it's Marie Forleo again with another Q & A Tuesday! Q: Alright, so today we have a very exciting question. This is from Christina, Christin writes: "I'm a preschool teacher who has written children's books that encourage love and respect for self and others." Very nice job, Christina! "My question, how can I go about projecting myself as a writer first and a teacher second? What business steps can I take to make this transformation? Thank you for all you do, Christina."

‍

A: Alright so, Christina we've got some good answers for you today. There's actually three very simple, very effective things that you can do right now to make that transformation and make it happen fast! The first one is speak it. So words have tremendous power, all you got to do the next time you find yourself at a cocktail party, just say you're a write first. So anytime you introduce yourself, talk about writing; talk about your books. Talk about everything else before you start saying you're a teacher and that's going to make a huge difference.

‍

So what we like to say is justdoit. Juss doeht. Juzdooet, Christina. Number two! Number two, you want to write it. So all language that goes out into the world, think about this, what is your email signature say? What does your business card say? What about any social media profiles? The very first thing that you should have is ding, ding, ding... writer. So if you don't have writer as the first thing listed on all of your written paraphernalia, go and make that change right now! I'll wait.

‍

Do it? Didja jussdooit? Okay, good! Number three and this is the most important one of all is be it! You have to write as much as you can. So if you don't have a blog, I would highly suggest you start blogging. Perhaps journaling will be more your thing but just really be the writer that you actually are and it becomes pretty simple if you're doing something habitually. You're writing every day. You're putting out blog posts. You're publishing more books. Naturally, it's going to be the first thing that pops out of your mouth. 

‍

So those are three easy steps to make that transformation and I want you to tell us how it goes So that was the A to today's Q. Thank you so much for watching! If you like it, like it!
