10. How to know when it’s time to write a "How To…" bookWhenever you can explain to the masses something that has never been explained before. The desire to show others the way is in all of us. Just remember that a five year old demonstrates their abilities as if we should all share in their discovery . You have to learn when you are contributing or just blowing your own horn. Can you do it anonymously? Would you be more effective and objective if done anonymously? Did you have a seven level calling? Do you feel that your time is up and you feel the need to leave something, however inconsequential it might be? The only answer I can arrive at is that there is never a time to write the book, unless you want to call it a history book, or write it in incremental stages, because a developing person is constantly learning and realizes that whatever they write may soon become obsolete . . . That's what happens with that thought chain even before it gets a good start. It appears that an incremental journal is the best way to share while continuing to absorb the limitless knowledge this life has to offer.
