I’m A Failed Writer #12: Networking for Cowards

(failed writer video)

In this episode of my writing crisis, we walk through my take on networking as a terrified coward. But it gets more complicated because I’ve mistakenly succeeded in a few areas, while failing at others. More than other Failed Writer videos, this is an area of the writing life I’m still pretty undecided about — even more of a work-in-progress than other areas. But it’s something I’ve had to confront as my book approaches the publication date.

So here goes, Failed Writer Crisis #12:

I have started to really respect my own thoughts and words, and I owe this new confidence to astounding people like yourself, Michael Schechter( who I think spelled his own name wrong!), Merlin Mann, and many others. You all have been instrumental in causing a great change for the better.

 

Seriously, Yuvi, I love these videos. To Michael, I want to let you know that I have read nearly every article on bettermess.com and your recent  "17 Productivity Apps Guaranteed To Fix All Of Your Problems" really got me.

 

thanks again guys and keep up the good work!

A good point well made, Yuvi. It's so common sense that it gets often overlooked. 

Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for that, bud. I don't think I've seen the secret to online success put quite so perfectly as, "mistakenly network by staying connected with people in the realm that I care about."

If I put anything well in this video, then that was a mistake too... (I mean: thanks!)
