Several months ago I began writing a small e-book. The idea was to write two books. The first I would publish. The second I would give away for free to build an email list. About 1/3 of the way through the first book I began reading the Millionaire Fastlane . I immediately began to feel guilty about the book that I was writing.
What was I writing? A book about how to improve your credit. After I graduated from college I found it very difficult to find a job. It was the middle of the recession. When I did find a job, my credit was in shambles.
I used various techniques, combined with responsibility, and a lot of work to rebuild my credit in a very short period of time. So, several months ago I began writing the book. I have since finished the first book, and i'm now 3/4 of the way through the second book.
After finishing TMF , I made a point to include, in both books, the fact that saving money and building credit, while important, will only get you so far. In order to go further, you must solve problems/open a business.
Yet, I feel it may be the antithesis of TMF . My goal is to complete both books, publish the first, give away the second, build an email list, and potentially do seminars on credit repair. While this is happening, I intend to write a third book on a tangentially related topic.
But, what do you folks think. Would that make me just another guru that MJ talks about. Should I scrap both books and move onto my third topic? What do you think?
