The Career Author Podcast is a podcast where co-authors J. Thorn and Zach Bohannon share their struggles and successes as full-time authors, advice for improving your writing craft, and honest discussions of what it takes to build a successful career as an author.

Every opportunity comes with a cost. We must decide what’s critical to our business and what isn’t, and then what to do about it.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• What it means to pay an “opportunity cost.”
• How to decide what is worth it and what isn’t.
• Why Zach and J. are pivoting with Story Levels, including a new approach with ancient roots.

Also, learn how success breeds motivation, not the other way around in The Motivation Myth.

When faced with an opportunity, how do you decide to take it or not? Comment at thecareerauthor.com.
