&lt;div class="asl-wikipage-summary"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Motivating yourself as an author is the most difficult part of finishing a manuscript. Part of getting to the end of your book is setting a proper mindset, part of it is setting helpful habits. In the clip below, a series of experts and authors share how they prepare themselves so that they&amp;rsquo;re motivated to finish projects. They help writers set expectations and prepare themselves for the hard work necessary to write a book, whether it&amp;rsquo;s fiction, nonfiction, or poetry. A few give advice on how to lay the groundwork for your writing career. Others share tips that you can incorporate into your writing life right now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don&amp;rsquo;t forget, though, that you get to pick and choose the things that work for you. &amp;ldquo;What I wish I had known at the beginning is that there isn&amp;rsquo;t really a wrong way to do this as long as the results are there: as long as the words get on the page, as long as you&amp;#39;re learning and growing your craft,&amp;rdquo; says author and educator Jos&amp;eacute; Pablo Iriarte. As you listen to these&amp;nbsp;professionals&amp;nbsp;share their experiences and expertise, don&amp;rsquo;t forget that every writer&amp;rsquo;s process is unique and every person requires different types of motivation.&lt;/p&gt;
