Diana, you’re so right. I think it’s very easy to get caught up in the numbers and forget about everything else. Then when those numbers aren’t what we want or expect, we’re so hard on ourselves. Self doubt is destructive, always be your best cheerleader.

Sales numbers on Amazon or Nielson’s are great but they don’t tell the whole story. Every positive word, encouragement given, email of praise written, book at an event sold, Facebook comment or tweet needs to be treasured, acknowledged and thanks given to the universe.
I’ll always remember a good friend who used to smile as I stood by the printer at work, waiting, ‘Your prints will come!’ he’d say ~ and they did!
It’s the same with writing. Don’t allow self doubt to linger and continue to believe in yourself.
