Are you an aspiring writer? Taking the first steps in the process is often the hardest. If you’re struggling for some motivation, Pete Honsberger, Archway Publishing author of ‘Don’t Burn Your Toast’ recently shared some stellar advice with Author Solutions. Let’s take a look at some tips based on how he wrote a book in 100 days.

Tip #1: Never Lose Sight of Your Goals

Goal setting is an important part of your journey. However, it shouldn’t end there. Often enough, aspiring writers find that it’s hard to meet the targets that they set for themselves. There could be all manner of reasons for this. For example, you may have a busy home life or find it hard to balance your day job with your love of writing.

“If you ever feel like your day-to-day life gets in the way of bigger goals, whether they are personal, professional, or both, I can empathize,” explains Honsberger. While it’s normal for your routine to impact your writing work, you have to keep your eyes on the prize if you want to succeed.

Instead of sitting down to write an entire novel, take a short and sweet approach to this project. “Perhaps the biggest lesson I learned in the 100 days it took me to write the first draft of my book is that such laser-focus and bite-sized activity on a consistent basis can apply to just about any project or dream,” says Honsberger.

Tip #2: Start Sooner Not Later

When you’ve got an idea for your book, the next step is the hardest. Diving in to get started often takes writers a long time. For instance, you may worry about which part to tackle first, whether you have fully developed your idea, and whether you have the time to start writing. All of the above can hold you back and stop you from reaching your goals.

If you’re dragging your feet when it comes to writing your book, Honsberger says to draw upon the old Chinese proverb: “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second-best time is now.” The truth of the matter is that there will never be a ‘perfect time to get started. Life simply does not work that way. You have to take the figurative bull by the horns and put pen to paper sooner rather than later. What are you waiting for?

Tips #3: Break Down Your Goals

So, you want to write a book? Okay, what does that involve? While your overarching goal may be to complete your first manuscript, there’s a whole load of smaller, sub-goals that entails. When you’re looking at this project as a whole, it can be entirely overwhelming. Take a step back and start breaking down your tasks.

Your to-do list may include setting a word count, finding the right resources to inform your work, fleshing out the narrative or structure, and starting to write. When you have listed all of the steps you need to take, it may help to attach set deadlines to each of them. That way, you can keep yourself on track from start to finish.

Getting this right takes a level of self-motivation. Luckily, there are small ways that you can ensure you stick to your deadlines. “I set a 100-day goal for myself to finish a rough draft of a full book, and committed to using a journal resource to keep me accountable,” explains Honsberger. Should the journal route not work for you, you could use tracking apps or even simply the reminder set on your phone to keep you going.

Tip 4: Don’t Give Up Ever

Chances are, when you first start writing your book, things will get hard. Taking on a project of this size is no small feat. The best advice you will get is to simply keep going. When things get tough, push on through and remember that your work will pay off in the end. “I promise you it will be worthwhile, and your capability will surprise you,” says Honsberger. Keep going, no matter what happens.

“Educate the girl – Change the world”

Consistently, girls face boundaries to education brought about by neediness, social standards, and practices, destitute background, brutality, and delicacy. Girl Childs’ schooling is an essential improvement priority for Goodwill development.

If you teach a man, you educate a person. Yet, if you teach a woman, you educate a country. At the point when women are educated, their nations become more grounded and more prosperous. The most noteworthy aftereffect of schooling is broad-mindedness.

Education can lead people to the places where they belong. so do women? Educating girl children can build a strong pillar for their future. A girl is compatible with anyone. She deserves the same rights of education as much as boys are getting.

Why women were not being educated in the back century?

Back then 90’s people used to discriminate female gender for being born into this world and they had to suffer through a lot of obstacles to get what they deserved. Most of them were burnt alive in the era of illiteracy. Women empowerment brought change into this world therefore we can see the actual power of women today. Women are no less than men. They have more abilities than men. It is validated now that women can do anything even though they were pushed off once.

Why is it important to get girl child educated?

Girl Childs’ schooling goes past getting these girls into school. It is likewise about guaranteeing that girls would learn and have a sense of security while in school; have the chance to finish all degrees of training attaining the information and abilities to compete in the work market; also that the girls could gain proficiency with the socio-expressive and fundamental capabilities which are important to explore and adjust to an evolving world; settle on choices about their own lives, and add to their networks and the world.

Girl Childs’ schooling is an essential advancement need. Better educated girls tend to be more refined about wherewithal and medical care, and in general, they will have fewer kids, wed at a later age, and their kids are normally better, and it’s their choice when to take a step forward and become a mom. They are bound to take an interest in the conventional work showcase and procure higher salaries. All of these above-mentioned facts consolidated can assist with lifting families, networks, and nations out of destitution.

How many populations of girls are not getting an education?

As indicated by UNESCO measurements, 132 million young girls are out of school throughout the world, including 34.3 million of primary grade young age, 30 million of lower-secondary young age, and 67.4 million of upper-secondary young age. In nations influenced by struggle, women are more than twice as prone to be out of school as women living in non-influenced nations. Furthermore, in numerous nations, among women who do enter elementary school, just a little segment will reach and far less will finish optional school.

What changes can education bring into the lives of young girls?

Educating a girl child implies changing the world — her reality, however, the world she lives in. Schooling is the way to opening admittance to monetary freedom and other nurturing assets for millions throughout the world. Educated women develop into women who are engaged to focus on themselves, their families, and their networks. At the point when you put resources into a young lady, the profits are boundless and immeasurable.

What are the boundaries women suffer from?

A girl child in our reality face an assortment of boundaries to getting educated: struggle, war, and brutality; illegal exploitation; absence of admittance to safe water and clinical consideration; sexual orientation segregation, getting married at a young age, and fortified work; dislodging; and others.

What prevents girl children from getting educated?

There are numerous boundaries to young girls’ admittance to and finish of schooling.

By providing funds we can help them overcome the phase of poverty.

Poverty is quite possibly the main component for deciding if a young lady can get to and complete her schooling. Helpless families need assets to pay for tutoring and related expenses (like textbooks, uniforms, transportation, and school supplies)

Helpless families with different children may decide to put resources into young men’s schooling as opposed to that of young ladies while likewise depending on young girls to assist with family errands and care for more youthful kin and other relatives.

Studies reliably show that young women who face numerous hindrances —, for example, low family pay, living in far-off or underserved areas, or who have an incapacity or have a place with a minority ethnic-etymological gathering — are farthest behind as far as admittance to and finish of instruction.

Violence is one of the factors that keep young girls from getting to and finishing schooling – frequently girls are compelled to walk significant distances to class putting them at an expanded danger of sex-based savagery (GBV) including sexual misuse and lewd behavior (Ocean/SH) and many experience brutality while at school.

As well as having genuine complications for their psychological and actual wellbeing and in general prosperity – this prompts lower participation and higher dropout rates among them. Young adult pregnancies can be a consequence of sexual viciousness or sexual abuse. Young women who become pregnant frequently face huge disgrace, and even separation, from their networks. The weight of shame, compounded by inconsistent sex standards, can lead young ladies to drop out of school early and not return.

Lack of schools, deficient foundation, and dangerous surroundings:

Notwithstanding an inadequate number of schools to fulfill training needs (especially in country regions) – numerous schools need water, sterilization, and cleanliness, offices including separate washrooms for young men and young ladies, and a water source. Further, numerous schools need fundamental highlights to advance a protected and comprehensive climate – for instance, they need edge walls, sufficiently bright pathways, and don’t utilize the general plan.

The absence of a satisfactory climate can go about as a significant hindrance to young ladies’ ordinary participation in school.

How can we help young girls?

However, we can switch the chances for young ladies up the world by assisting them with getting schooling. We can bring issues to light of the significance of putting resources into the existence of women throughout the world.

We can raise awareness through distinctive sources also that we can build schools for girls.
