We as a generation are responsible to build on what was established before us as we are responsible to educate and train the next generation. We are supposed to be committed as pastors, community leaders, as parents, older brothers, aunts, and teachers to help those who come after us grow and carry the torch of development and change on into the future. One of the most effective ways I have witnessed this being successfully accomplished is through books. It is the Holy Bible that continues to regulate the minds of millions of people all around the world and the best and most lasting format that has ever been created to sustain history and the account of the ages is the book. Not the television, the radio, the satellite, the internet, the cd, the cassette, or the seminar but the book.

So then if you want to join the club of being super-effective in changing the world and delivering important information to the future generations then you need to publish your work. It’s obviously the one medium that hasn’t become outdated or advanced to the point of being an old way of doing things. Authors have the power to useful and beneficial well beyond their years.

Leaving a legacy is important for the sake of productivity. God tells us to be fruitful and to multiply. We are supposed to be fruitful everyday and in every way that we possibly can. There is no time greater than this time that people can become published authors and rise to the top of this industry like this. The rise of POD companies as a viable source for writers to become published authors has leveled the playing field dramatically. Writers, educators, speakers, and leaders now have the opportunity to make their own way and take control of how far they go as published authors. I believe that the fact that there are more published authors now than probably any other time in history, the next generation is guaranteed to be much more sophisticated and advanced than we are now.

In other words, because we are all able to publish books and deliver our message of hope and empowerment, future generations will be able to use our experiences and best work as a starting point to their productivity as a citizen of the world. We have the potential to create even greater astronauts, even greater teachers, even greater, pastors, greater politician, and greater businessmen tomorrow by taking the time today to lay out the blueprint of our success through a book. I encourage you to become a trail-blazer, a leader, and a legend of this day by becoming an author!
