60 | Why “Next Year Will Be Different” Never Works for Christian Authors

from Anointed Scribe: Kingdom Success for Christian Writers · host Urcelia Teixeira | Christian Author | Kingdom Author Coach & Mentor

It’s the start of a brand-new year.New goals. New planners. New promises we’re making to ourselves — again.“This year will be different.” “I’ll be more disciplined.” “I’ll finally stay consistent.”And yet, if we’re honest, many Christian authors have said these same things before… only to find themselves back in the same place by March.In this episode of Anointed Scribe, we talk about why good intentions rarely lead to lasting change — especially in your author business.Because the issue is rarely effort, discipline, or motivation.It’s often the foundation you’re building on.In this conversation, we explore:Why January doesn’t automatically reset exhaustion or burnoutHow repeated patterns form — even when you pray and plan sincerelyThe difference between movement and obedienceWhy pressure-driven goals always lead back to fatigueWhy prayer alone doesn’t always break cycles without awarenessAnd why real transformation starts with clarity, not another planIf your writing, marketing, or growth feels heavier than it should — even though you’ve done the work and stayed faithful — this episode will help you understand why.✨ Need clarity before setting another goal?If your author business isn’t working the way it should — despite your effort and faithfulness — I created a short clarity quiz to help you discern what’s actually creating friction right now.This isn’t about fixing you or trying harder. It’s about understanding whether the issue is strategy — or order.👉 Take the clarity quiz here:https://bit.ly/AnointedScribe-QuizLater this month, I’ll be opening a space for Christian authors who sense a deeper shift is needed — not another reset, but a rebuilding from the inside out.I’ll share more when the time is right.For now, start with clarity.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...
