You have to know what to let go of, what to hold onto, and what to press into and pursue. Thinking about these three factors helps you determine what is most important, and how you can achieve your ultimate goal. Sometimes you may need to let go of a difficult partner, or other times you may need to press in and vouch for an idea about which you feel strongly, for example. Keep in mind your vision and how you want it to be presented to the public.</p> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-65/HowAuthorsCanSetRealisticExpectationsinCollaborativeRelationships.mp4">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../HowAuthorsCanSetRealisticExpectationsinCollaborativeRelationships.mp4</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, Subscriber, video</div>
