I would love to hear your definition of "drive" then.
- Retric 7y agoBy her own words she took five years to write the first book, but mostly wrote it while unemployed at coffee shops. Ignoring her later success, most unemployed people sitting around coffee shops writing are considered to have low drive. I mean if you think she qualifies that’s fine, but kind of lowers the bar to irrelevance.
