3 Ways Writing Helped Me Build a Business, Launch a Dream, and Find My Purpose



3 Ways Writing Helped Me Build a Business, Launch a Dream, and Find My Purpose

by Jeff Goins

“What’s happened to you is rare,” my friend Mark told me in a conversation that persuaded me to quit my job and write full-time.

“Nobody saw it coming. I know you and I didn’t see it coming.”

That was it. The day I decided to become a writer.

After that conversation, I gave my notice, found a nice corner in our house for a desk, and started writing. The rest, as they say, is history.

In three years, I published four books, built a seven-figure business, and hired a team to work for me. More importantly than all of that, though, I found my calling.

I discovered a deep satisfaction in the work I did and the people whose lives my work touched.

And that, as Mark said, is rare. But it doesn’t have to be.

Looking back years later, I realized none of it would have happened if it weren’t for my commitment to writing.
