    What do you think are your biggest mistakes with starting a business?

    Struggling with finding the right path

    MINDSET 
    Hey, I am in a very lucky situation: I can decide for myself what I want to do. By that I mean that my parents don't tell me what to do and I've been given many other opportunities (for example, living in Germany, being able to go to school, etc.). Therefore in advance: I am very grateful for my...

    From Zero to Six-Figure Author: Lessons Along the Way

    INTRO 
    edited for privacy :) If you're reading this and you're interested in self-pubbing, I'd say: (1) pick a genre you enjoy. I know this is unconventional, but enjoyment shows through your writing. You can profit in any genre if you're good at it, unless the genre is completely obscure or...

    Hello! from a location-independent self-publisher. My journey so far

    INTRO 
    Hello! First off, I'm happy to be a part of this awesome community! I just realized I suck at introducing myself, so I will try to keep it short. Originally from Poland, born in 1990. I've been into the self-publishing business since 2014. I took it seriously from the very beginning and...

    I left active duty in 2007, but remained a Reservist until 2015. I will always cherish my time serving my country. The values have remained and I strive to continuously give back - which is the biggest reason I work in the non-profit industry at the moment! I fell to consumerism when I was...
