Feeling the success you wish to have as a writer is key to manifesting it.
The Law of Assumption, Law of Attraction, and even neuroscience back this up —when you feel successful, you act like a successful writer, and your reality shifts to match that.
Here’s how to embody that success now:
#1. Start Your Day Like a Successful Writer.
What would a successful writer do first thing in the morning?
Maybe they wake up excited about their project, journal ideas, or sip coffee while reviewing their goals.
Design a morning routine that aligns with the writer you aspire to be.
#2. Immerse Yourself in the Feeling of Having "Made It."
Close your eyes and imagine: You’ve just hit a bestseller list, landed a dream publishing deal, or built a thriving author business.
How do you feel?
Confident?
Excited?
Relieved?
Hold onto that feeling as you write today.
#3. Surround Yourself with Success Cues.
Change your environment to reflect the success you’re calling in:
Create a “future you” email inbox folder where you save messages from readers (real or imagined).
Design a fake book cover and set it as your desktop wallpaper.
Keep a success journal, recording as if your biggest wins have already happened.
#4. Talk and Think Like a Successful Writer.
Instead of saying, "I hope to be published one day," say, "I'm building a successful writing career."
Shift from "I'm struggling with writing today" to "I'm in the process of creating something amazing."
#5. Take Action with the Energy of Success.
Write as if your work already matters to thousands of readers.
Show up consistently, whether that’s posting online, engaging with your audience, or improving your craft.
Take bold steps—pitch that agent, self-publish with confidence, start that blog.
#6. Feel Gratitude for the Success That’s on Its Way.
Every time you write, say, "Thank you for the opportunity to create."
Celebrate every milestone, no matter how small.
Did you write 500 words?
That’s proof you’re a real writer.
#7. Use a Success Meditation or Affirmation Practice.
Before writing, close your eyes and affirm:
I am a successful writer.
My words impact and inspire readers.
Opportunities flow to me effortlessly.
Let yourself feel the truth in those statements.
#8. Reframe Rejection as Proof of Your Success.
Every great writer has rejections.
Instead of seeing them as setbacks, view them as signs you’re in the game.
Say, "This means I'm on the path successful writers walk."
#9. Visualize the Life You’re Creating Daily.
Take a few minutes each day to live in the reality of your future success.
Picture yourself signing books, seeing glowing reviews, getting paid well for your words.
Feel it now and watch how reality starts to shift in your favor.
Success starts with how you feel about yourself as a writer.
When you embody success in your mindset, emotions, and daily habits, the results will follow.
