The Journey Begins
Embarking on the path of writing “Your Big Next” was a transformative experience rooted deeply in personal conviction rather than commercial gain. The idea of penning this book wasn’t just a career move or a marketing strategy—it was a calling that demanded to be fulfilled.
For over a decade, the notion of writing lingered, yet it wasn’t until a seismic personal loss and a newfound clarity emerged that the direction became unmistakably clear. This transformative process is what I wish to unfold, offering insights into the triumphs, challenges, and revelations encountered along the way.
Finding the Message
Writing this book meant more than just sharing past experiences; it was an opportunity to crystallize a message that transcends business. “Your Big Next” is about acknowledging the greater calling beyond day-to-day successes and aligning with a purpose that truly matters. It’s about stepping away from the noise of busy work and dedicating effort toward meaningful life’s work.
Crafting Your Legacy
A significant revelation during this process was understanding that writing a book can serve as a refiner’s fire, clarifying one’s message with precision and intentionality. It involves stripping away non-essentials and identifying core beliefs that you wish to impart to the world.
Many perceive books as extensions of their brands, tools to gain more clients or increase profits. However, when approached from a place of authentic purpose, a book evolves into more than just a “business card.” It becomes a legacy—an enduring piece of work that captures the essence of your beliefs, stories, and wisdom for future generations.
The Birth of ‘Your Big Next’
After countless hours of reflection and refinement, the title “Your Big Next” crystallized—a call to action that resonates deeply with my life’s mission. The goal was to inspire readers to tap into their God-led calling—a calling that promises prosperity beyond traditional measures, enriching families and future generations alike.
Expect Many Challenges
The road is not without its hurdles, including unexpected twists that challenge your commitment. For example, plans for the book’s launch aligned unexpectedly with a personal milestone, necessitating adjustments and demonstrating the agility required in such creative endeavors.
Writing as a Calling
Writing this book wasn’t simply about achieving professional milestones but living a true calling. It’s about exploring deep-seated fears, embracing the refining fire of personal growth, and creating a roadmap that carries others from the shackles of busy work into the fulfillment of their true calling.
If there’s a whisper in your heart—a book, a message demanding expression—know that it’s time to act. The world needs what you have within. Don’t wait for the perfect moment; make that moment now. Remember, the legacy you create today can touch lives tomorrow.
