LOA Blog Series Part 9: Real Writer Success Stories with LOA

Just joining the series? You can start with post one, here.

Many authors credit visualization, affirmations, and mindset for their success. They didn’t just dream — they aligned their actions with their beliefs.

Examples:
Stephen King impaled all of his rejection letters on an iron nail he drove into a wall, which soon became an iron spike. This visual motivated him to keep going and made him into the prolific best-selling author he is today.

Jim Carrey, actor and comedian famously wrote himself a check for $10 million for “acting services rendered” early in his career, visualizing himself receiving that sum years before it actually happened for his role in Dumb and Dumber.

LOA isn’t wishful thinking; it’s a practice of living in alignment with your goals, but don’t take my word for it.

Try this:
Find and research one author whose success story inspires you. Identify the mindset strategies they used and adopt one for your own writing.

It worked for them, it can work for you — with aligned action. Tell us about what you found and how you’re going to use it in your own writing life. Sharing is caring. A rising tide raises all boats…and all that sort of thing. Let’s do this!
