Business from the inside out

Stuff Undone, Things Unsaid (or I’m now on facebook and I’m writing my first book)

I’m writing my first book. It’s about letting my customers determine the price they pay for my work. I call it value pricing.

I’ve been pricing this way for over a year and a half. I’ve been thinking about writing this book for over a year and three-quarters. I’ve been writing it for over six months.

It’s painful. I’m procrastinating.

I’ve barely written anything, and what I did write, I’m not feeling good about.

Every day, I ask myself, will you write some of it today? Each day, I don’t.

I haven’t since July.

I want to write this thing.

So I’ve got an idea… something that’ll scare me into moving… I’ve got an idea to share my progress with you. With anyone who cares.

I’m going to post my daily progress publicly. I need some kind of kick in the pants. And I figured a public airing of my struggles might be good for that, and for my soul. If you want to, you can cheer me on, or send me wisdom, to get me writing.

So, I’m now on Facebook. I’ve been fighting this for a while. Join me on Facebook and watch me struggle to write my first book.

Eventually, you’ll see me reach my goal. But the journey is the fun part anyway… right?

See you over there.

[tweetmeme] I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it again, I did not make the word Innerpreneur up. I was only drawn to it once upon a time ago (early 2007) when I was starting my business.

I saw the book Karma Queens, Geek Gods and Innerpreneurs in the bookstore and despite the fact that I had little interest in the book’s overall themes, I bought it. I was compelled by the term, Innerpreneur, and intrigued by the people it described.

It spoke to me. I connected with it. I didn’t totally understand what being an Innerpreneur meant but I found truth in it.

I can’t take ownership of these feelings, these thoughts. These issues are not mine to hold. I am without scars; flawless. Undesirable qualities, I have...
