Rebelious rules by Kristina Gallo

If you are an indie author, you will publish independently your books. Probably you have no experience with traditional publishing, or you are rejected by publishers.  You will build your reader's base and promote your books. You will make your book cover by yourself, or you will hire professional cover designers. You will pay an editor. After your book will be published, you will ask for reviews. There are millions of indie authors around the world. Many will not sell more than a few books and your investment will not be effective. Some authors will give up, others will follow their passion. In your path to success, you will fall into some traps. I know that from my experience. Aware of the next traps: Fake promises . Some authors will offer you a review swap. It is punished by Amazon, by deleting these reviews. Also, even if you review other's author's books and expect the same, it is not guaranteed that the author will review your book as reciprocity. Unwanted advice. S...

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 giv...

The most successful person is the one who put a curtain over her plans. Nobody knew what is going on, and suddenly stroke of luck hit her.  For sure you heard about the spell of jealousy.  If you say to someone that you like a guy, bad energy can ruin your possible relationship.  If you talk about a business opportunity, envy can ruin this at the start. I know, it is hard to be quiet when you get a chance to make your life better. You want to share happiness with someone, you want to talk about what is going on. Imagine that you have a chance to be with the love of your life, and suddenly it blew. Your confident person will ask what happened to your prince and you will have one problem more. The things others don't know can't hurt you. Maybe you were dumped by someone and nobody knows. Maybe you failed at your work task and nobody knows. Your failures should stay buried and let success make a noise by itself. Making plans in silence have an ad...

If you ask yourself, why your progress is too slow and why you are still standing in the place, make the analysis inside of you. It is not a curse and a lack of powerful acquaintances. It is not a high force. These factors stand in your way: Fear. You are afraid of what you might be. You are not aware of this, but imagine that you are in public now? Are you trembling? Are you afraid to lose privacy? Shyness.  You are afraid to ask someone to help you. You are insecure about your qualities. You think others are better than you. Ego.  You think you know all the best, but collaboration is necessary. You don't want to admit mistakes. Fake friends.  Cut off all connections with doubters. Empty promises.  Don't believe those who say to help you and then hesitate. The promise is a deadline factor. Now or never. Clean your path even it means sacrificing and isolating yourself. Nobody succeeds in the crowd and in a noisy atmosphere. You...

When you walk on the hard path of betrayal and disloyalty, it will frustrate you. Everyone will be the same for you, the face you can't trust. Someone who will screw you. Another one who will use you and take advantage.  This is not the right way if you want success.  The first step to recover from traitors is to forget the past. Don't look back, you are not going that way. It means: If someone rejected you in the past, let him stay there. Don't beg for a return and don't accept if he changes his mind.  If someone called you after the century passed, don't accept this call. Ignore and go forward. The second step is to stop comparing people. We are different, and if someone reminds you of the bad person in the past, this is not a pattern. It might look like this, but you will not repeat the same mistake twice, or you will fix it faster than before. The third step is to accept changes. Don't afraid of changes, even it looks wors...

Many girls are publishing their photos on Instagram every day in the hope to get money. Recently Italian Influencer called the police because it deleted her Instagram profile. She said that is like murder because they killed her business. She said that she spent her money quick on Gucci products. When I finished college, I was working voluntarily for one year on the court. I got only travel expenses, but I worked as other employers who got paid. Later on, I waited one year at home to get a real job; I sent 25 requests for the job; I was on 10 job interviews and it took a lot of nerves and patience. Nowadays many young people are lazy, and they want to get money easily. It spoils those who succeed, and much news is about addictions, suicides, or heart attacks that affect people in their twenties. They don't know to appreciate money. Those who can't succeed are disappointed and complain about a stroke of bad luck. It is not pleasant to take your photos seve...

I know that many people wish to get success online. It doesn’t matter if you are a blogger, author, musician, or motivational speaker, you want to promote yourself, get noticed by many people, and sell your work. It fills the path to success with thorns. People might ignore you, mock you, laugh at you, but you hold ahead up and mind your business. I know many successful people were victims of bullies and abuse and they got used to the bad treatment. The point is, you wish that people get you serious. I am not famous, but I met many arrogant people who think they are celebrities and they wish that others crawl when they appear. Here I am talking about mistakes that arrogant people do when they promote themselves. I got the next message. “ Hello, I am an author and I need likes on my page. You might like my book and your friends should like it too. Maybe you purchase it.”  So, this is a manifestation of egoism and narcissism, without asking how he can help me, a...
