Welcome back to the Idea to Impact Podcast! I'm your host, Blake DeVos, and in today’s episode, we’re tackling a huge myth that stops so many aspiring authors from writing their book: "I just don’t have the time."
If that sounds like you, this episode is going to flip that belief on its head.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:
- Why lack of time isn’t the real issue—lack of a system is.
- How to write a high-impact, business-building book in just one hour a day
- The exact 4-step system our Idea to Impact clients use to finish their first drafts in 6–8 weeks while running businesses, coaching clients, and managing life.
- How to protect your energy and stay consistent, even when life gets messy.
Key Takeaways:
- Time isn't the problem. Most people waste extra time on low-impact activities. What you need is structure and clarity.
- 500–700 words a day = a draft in 6–8 weeks. That’s a full book done while keeping your business humming.
Bonus Tips:
- Ritualise your writing sessions. Tea, music, a favorite chair—turn it into your creative zone.
- Miss a day? No stress. Reset tomorrow. Momentum is built through resets, not guilt.
- One hour a day beats ten hours once a month—every time.
