Yes to this! That’s the expectation we all should have. Not for a book deal / wild success / fame and fortune. That expectation just sets us up for crazy pressure and getting down on ourselves if we don’t achieve that stereotypical definition of success.
I get hooked into this trap DAILY and need to constantly remind myself to go easy on myself, focus more on the process rather than the end result, and redefine “success” as just putting something out there, regardless of what happens. When you do that, you “win” so much more easily.
Please keep writing I want to read everything you have to say, truly.
