Writing a travelogue these days. Didn't have this thought until one day, while chatting with Wei Chuan over msn, he gave me this idea. Well, to me, i dun intend it to sell like Harry Potter. Just a form of passive income. Anyway, there's not much cost involved. It's just to translate some knowledge to a media to share it and earn some money at the same time. No point leaving the knowledge in my brain and bringing it to the grave with me.

There's always some obstacles along everything we do. While writing, there were times when I dun feel like writing. After completing it, it's the marketing issue. Dun have a clue how to market it. I asked some of the CPA teachers in school but they have no idea too. They only know how to create a website as per the syllabus. They have no idea how to link the file to the website etc. Well, think our education system is still too theoretical after all... Feel like giving up too after failing to get help. But still push on. If no one can help me, then I must help myself.

Went online to search on that myself. Learn how to host my ebook, how to automate the payment and delivery, learn how to market it. Although it's just a simple ebook which I dun intend to let it sell like Harry Potter, I think that this is a sense of satisfaction. I could have stopped at the writing. I could have stop after I completed the book. I could have stopped after I fail to find people to seek advice and help in the automation, the marketing. I could have stopped after trying to figure out how to insert the html codes into the website which makes no sense to me. But I push on. If no one can help me, I learn everything from scratch myself. Perhaps it's the process and the determination that gives me that satisfaction.

And also, give urself deadline if not procrastination will take control. No excuse, no what if, no but. It's not a hope. It's a MUST!!
