[PitchRate] My baby shower invite

Hey Kyle,
 
Before I started writing my first book (available now!), I’d heard people say that writing a book is similar to giving birth. I thought, really? Isn't that a little over dramatic? Obviously due to a natural barrier, I haven’t given birth. But now that I've finally given birth to my book, I know exactly what those people meant!
 
Truly, if I had a choice between writing another book and giving birth, I’d probably choose labor.
 
Luckily, my good friend Heather was there along the way to help me through my contractions because, in all honesty, and after going through the initial process, I was clear that no one should tackle the book writing process alone. While I learned so much throughout the process, my biggest insight happened after the book was complete. I had just “given birth” and completed a goal I’d had for at least 7 years; a major accomplishment! Without skipping a beat, the conversation in my company went from “Whew, thank God that’s done!” to “Let’s market this immediately.” We were right on to the next thing, without a single pause.
 
Here’s my lesson learned, and the most important step that I missed.
 
Are you truly celebrating your accomplishments?
