Don't give up on your dream because someone gives you useless tips



If you strive for a better life, you see. Through open eyes, you wish better for yourself. Even circumstances might slow you down, and people stop your progress. Still, your ambitions are alive.
Anyone who has lived in a harder way can understand the dream. If you did not have money, you looked at people who spent money on things; they don't need it. Maybe you spared money for basic needs until someone enjoyed in wealthy life. Your urge pushed you to accept jobs you did not dream about. Sometimes you shared your private space with people you did not like. If you were in the dorm, you had a roommate. If you shared an office, you had office mates who were not pleasant always. 
A lack of money means a lack of freedom. Also, it means a lack of privacy because if you wish to swim alone; you need a big swimming pool and you can't effort it if you are poor.


How your vision will develop, depends on a few things.

Do you have an instinct for survival?

Do you give up on the first obstacle?

Can anyone push you away from your aim?

Can you separate private life from business?


Would you hang out with the right people?


You would not believe how the wrong choice might change your path. It could be a wrong choice of job or partner, but suddenly you are in the wrong movie with undesirable roles. Why you are a pawn and not a king? Because this is not your movie, and this is not your game. 

When you reject the wrong people, you will give a hand to the right ones. The successful person said NO more times than the loser got up from his bed in the morning. 



Your dream about a better life might produce different reactions.

People will laugh.

People will wonder.

They could consider you a crazy person who lost his mind. 

If you want to jump out from the average crowd, hang out with those who did it already. Your friend who always lives a peaceful life and gives you advice to not complain is not the right choice for support. He might wish you well, but he will not push you in the right direction.  Don't give up on your dream because someone gave you useless tips.

6 signs that your readers don't read your book

Your book is live. That day came, and now you need an audience, a reader's community to show interest. What you need are readers who will read and review your book. The author feel excited like a student who went to the exam and waits for his mark. In this situation, you are not afraid of negative reviews. What is the point? Sometimes, your readers are not reading your book. They pretend they read, instead of this they are scrolling pages and write reviews, thinking they are doing a favor. A real reader will need time to read book. It is not fast eating and swallowing, there is much more in reading books. It demands your time, focus and attention, also understanding. That is why I read 20-30 books per year, I can't do more. A book review can talk much about reader. If the review is short, it could be a sign that a book is not read. Maybe I am wrong, maybe a reader did not enjoy so he left only a note. How to know your book is not read? There are no sign of reading pages in your...
