Step 23

Develop a support system

“Tell everyone what you want to do and someone will want to help you do it.”

W. Clement Stone

What if your success partners are well meaning but not that helpful? For example, if what you want is to write a book, they may not always be the best judge of whether what you have written is any good. Not wanting to upset your feelings or simply not being that well trained in what makes good and bad writing, they may be a little too quick to compliment your work. In this step, we will look at other forms of support.

“When life gets tough, don’t be ashamed or too proud to ask for help.”
