A book?

I’ve had so many people tell me I should write a book and I generally just laugh because what the hell would I write about? I know my own life and my own experiences would be a good place to start, but I never thought that would hold any meaning to anyone because I’m not exactly where I want to be in life. You know you read self help books and books about people’s lives and they’re sitting pretty well in life at the time they decided to write a book, they’ve achieved their goals and now they’re writing from their experiences on how to get to where they are. I’ve been thinking I’ve never read a book from someone on middle ground, you always read books or listen to podcasts from people at the top. And yeah that’s empowering, but what about hearing from someone that’s come up from rock bottom and still working on getting where they’re going? They might be out there, but I haven’t found one and I think there’s a market for it. A book for the down trodden people. A book from my perspective about how you can come up from the bottom, that I’m no where near where I want to be, but I’m on my way and far better off than I used to be. I’ve learned you don’t need to be in the ideal position to share your experience. And sometimes I think it’s helpful to hear strength and hope from someone you relate more too, someone that doesn’t seem like they have a currently unattainable life. I’m not saying my bar is set lower, my bar is high and I haven’t even reached it yet, but sharing my journey and my goals as I go through them might help some people that are overwhelmed with where they’re at. I’m not entirely sure how this will go, but I’m going to start writing and we’ll see what happens. I mean it can’t hurt to try, I’ve got nothing to lose. I’m going to start writing not only on my blog daily, but I’ll start writing a book and I’ll share it once it feels done.
