Goodreads asked Ranan Lachman:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Ranan Lachman My simplest advice is to not be afraid of the Nay sayers and just do it. There are millions of reason why you shouldn’t write a book: it takes an enormous amount of time and effort, you never know if it will be successful or even published, you don’t know if you’ll even be able to finish it or like the end-result. There is never the right time to write it, and if you ask 10 people what they think about the book concept before you write it, they’ll probably give you 15 reasons why it’s not going to work.
That said, there is a reason you are writing a book and you should listen to that internal voice and pursue it. My internal voice told me that even if there is only one person who will read my book and decide to adopt a good cause as his Living Purpose and will support it, I’ve achieve my goal to leave a positive footprint on society, so I followed my internal voice and published Purpose, how little things can create a meaningful life.
