Far too many authors enjoy the ‘starving artists’ lifestyle and mentality… not because they enjoy the struggle, but because of the payoff of belonging with others who do not know how to succeed. My question to you is this: Why belong with those who prefer to make excuses rather than money and create success?

It’s time to stop swallowing what you want to say, stop hiding behind a veil of pleasing others.
It is time to formulate and unleash what you really think and feel into the world of woke madness – in a constructive and positively powerful way of course!
Purging through the journaling and free writing exercises will help you clear the clutter of your mind, release trauma and tension in your body and allow you to speak up and ask for what you want.

Are You Ready To Become One of My #1MillionAuthors?
This 7 Week Author Course was designed to be completed in just 7 Weeks for MAXIMUM MOMENTUM – but it was also designed with YOUR flexibility in mind.
You may not have the capacity to commit to 7 Weeks non-stop due to work, family, health and finances; and you may not have the need for all 7 modules.
So, like a child let loose in a sweet shop, pick and mix the modules, timeframes and bundles which WORK BEST FOR YOU!
Todo bien? Si? Vamos!! Kullu Qwai’isa? Alhamdulilah! Yalla Basora!
Harnessing the power of your voice is the aim of this module. Within the pages of this module you will find journalling questions which will kick your imposter up the arse and out the door and silence the endless chatter in your mind about not being good enough.
You will find activities which will help you get to the core of your message, gain confidence to present to turn the real and perceived fears on their head, and help you prepare for what may or may not happen along the way, ensuring you face eventualities head-on. Be prepared to write in complete and utter flow.
This module is perfect for those who are at the beginning of their author journey or revisiting a manuscript which has been stored on the hard drive for far too long!
Writing a book is more than simply writing words on a page. It is about creating a vision you see and feel so clearly that it becomes impossible for you to not achieve it.
It is also about creating a business blueprint – which quite frankly scares a lot of you authors out there because you see yourself as writers not business owners or entrepreneurs.
In this module I will help you identify your self sabotaging habits, beliefs and actions, whilst helping you develop existing helpful habits, create new ones and a mindset that will help excel as a human, an author and a business owner.
This is module is perfect for you if you are an author who feels deflated by the success of your book(s) and want to achieve more confidence in your abilities to dream bigger, live the author life you always imagined, as well as increase your book sales and income.
Royalties are only one income we receive from our books – and if you are relying on royalties alone, then this module is for you!
Throughout this module I will guide you through the process of developing additional product spectrums that excite you and your readers so you can create abundance for yourself in all areas of life – and truly start living that big vision you created for yourself in Module Two – or the dream you believed was possible… before your current reality set in.
Learn how to make money whilst you sleep, and enjoy moving forward to a life of financial freedom defined by you!
This module is ideal for those who for those who know there is always more to receive and achieve in life, and wish to step up into becoming a business savvy and successful author!
Writing a book is one thing. Creating a space for others to escape reality is quite another.
And then there’s getting present to the real positive change you can make as an author of both fiction and non-fiction books.
Whether you choose to donate copies of your books to schools around the world to help with literacy, or dive deep into the realm of human rights violations and social justice, there are projects out in the world which need your help.
You can either pay lip service to them by jumping on a band wagon rolling through town (which are not really helping the root causes by the way), feel like you are fighting a losing battle by not knowing where to start helping, or you can start making a difference.
This module helps you understanding how and where you can help other human beings, the planet all through harnessing the power of your book, your passion to make a difference and your humanity.
This module is perfect for authors who wish to create and get involved with opportunities destined to change the world for the better, not just their own life and bank balance.
Will you step up and help change the world?
How environmentally friendly is your book? What about your printing and distribution channels?
What about the environment you have created around you and the impact your chosen environments have on you as a human being and as a writer?
In this module we dive deeper into how the various environments impact our lives – and the environments we are impacting with the work we do, the books we write, and who we are.
By completing the activities and journalling questions within this module, you will start to see yourself, your lifestyle and your vision of the world change before your very eyes?
Are you up for that challenge? If so, then this is the perfect module for you!
In this module we dive deep into the subject of Legacy.
Yep, this is where we really get serious and start understanding the power we have when it comes to being an author. It is not enough to just sell books, have millions of copies sold, or have ‘a nice life’. Not that there is anything wrong with that, if that’s what you want, but in this module we look at what is truly possible when we consider what is truly possible for us, our immediate family and friends, and humanity – outside of the vanity Metrics and money side of things.
To build our legacy means stepping outside of our comfort zones and and understanding the world we are entering into by becoming an AUTHORity in a specific subject.
We write for a reason, whether that is to create worlds we can escape from our own life into, or because the books we write mirror the books which saved us from the bullying in schools. We could be writing to learn more about a subject we are passionate about, or to further our career in a specific area.
Understanding this reason for why we write helps us identify the legacy we can create by becoming an AUTHORity on a particular subject.
And this is what this module is all about.
So if you are looking to build a legacy from your book(s) then this is the module for you!
This module could have come second, but as I created this book to be completed by writers on their way to becoming an author, it naturally came at the end.
That doesn’t mean that those of you who have already published cannot take advantage of the great content in this module.
You may have only published to Amazon, and are now sat there waiting for the sales to come through… but all you hear is … … …
Yep, nothing!
Or, you’ve made some sales and the anti-climax you feel having birthed your book is now hitting hard.
Are you ready to leap forward into incredible success, or will you run and hide, sabotaging everything you have been working towards?
Are you ready to deal with the emotions and the ‘fame’ you have created, or could create with the release of your book and new author life?
What about the haters? The Jealous Janet’s and James’ of this world – are you ready to handle them?
Some of the ideas and plans you have created in the previous modules will have helped you create a scary exciting vision for the future, as well as a successful business blueprint, but what happens now you’ve published?
What awards and accolades are you going after? If so, how do you get them?
What about the awareness you now have about yourself as a writer? Will there be a next book? A series? A change of career?
Dive into this final module in the 7 Week Author Course and find out what is truly possible for you and your future!

My question to you is this:
Why belong with those who prefer to make excuses rather than money and create success

So you can move forward into the next level of success and financial freedom!
“I have done some worksheets previously where they delve into different aspects of money mindset, and found this Money Mindset Shifts by Dawn Bates really useful and something that I could see myself benefiting from doing again.
I liked the breakdown of activities and the journalling parts. The reflective questions are really helpful and highlight where there are underlying money mindset issues. One part I found interesting that also made me feel a bit fearful was consolidating debt, which is a personal thing, but very possibly relevant for so many of us.”
