5️⃣ Habits I doubled down on when writing my book that transformed how I show up every day. 

Writing a book is one of the greatest tests of discipline, clarity, and resilience. But the real power isn’t only in finishing, it’s in the habits you build along the way. 

Here are 5️⃣ lessons that helped me then (and still do now) to perform at my/your best, every single day:

1️⃣ Routines drive results. High performers know success isn’t random. The same way I set aside non-negotiable writing or focus hours, you can create rituals that prime your brain for focus and execution.

2️⃣ Break big goals into small wins. A manuscript is built word by word. Breaking any large project into small, achievable milestones keeps progress visible and motivation alive.

3️⃣ Energy management > time management. Writing taught me to honor my peak energy windows (which for me was early morning 5am- 9am) Protecting your energy, not just your calendar, determines the quality of your output.

4️⃣ Rest is a productivity tool. Some of my best insights came after stepping away from the page. Pausing, recharging, and napping or sleeping well fuel sharper thinking and stronger performance.

5️⃣ Feedback accelerates mastery. An editor’s perspective and other authors I spoke with, challenged me to see blind spots I couldn’t on my own. High performers seek feedback from the people they trust as a catalyst for growth.
