Feeling Good: The Real Story
Hi everybody!
In the interview with Roy Germano in the last podcast you learned about how challenging it was to get my first book, Feeling Good, published. In this podcast, you’ll hear the story of what happened after it was published.
I had a magical fantasies of what would happen once I was an “author.” The reality was quite the opposite and quite painful, with almost endless rejections accompanied by feelings of self-pity and defeat. For example, soon after publication, I learned my book was at the top of my publisher’s “loser list.” Then I discovered that magazines, newspapers, and TV and radio shows had no interest in it whatsoever.
I hope you enjoy the story. It’s all about the celebration of failure and the conversion of failure into success.
