Do you buy courses, take certifications, or start projects … and then let them sit unfinished?

In this episode of Monday Morning Jumpstart, AWAI’s Chief Success Officer Ted Capshaw and Director of Training Jade Trueblood tackle one of the biggest hurdles aspiring writers face: lack of determination and the looming shadow of regret.

  • Why unfinished projects can lead to long-term regret
  • How to identify your “why” and turn it into determination
  • The practical steps to finish what you start — no excuses
