Suzanne Kingsbury is here! She's an award-winning best-selling author and the Founder of Gateless Writing Inc., a worldwide literary arts organization based on ancient Zen and cutting-edge creative brain science that brings writers, creative and business leaders to their highest level of Innovation and productivity.  

What is the Gateless Writing process?  

Suzanne explains what it isn't first and how she came to understand the brain science behind Gateless Writing. Hear how she went from being a successful writer to being a blocked writer when she tried the conventional method of writer education.  

We learn better (and write better) when we come from a positive place. Criticism can lead to blocks and crippling doubt. We've been told what isn't working as a way to learn instead of what IS working.  

The Gateless Writing method is focusing on what is right. What's good? What are you doing well? That helps you focus on what's going well and allows you to grow from there.  

Gateless has also helped people improve all aspects of their lives. When we focus on what's good, what's working well, everything that is good begins to come along with you and what's not good falls away.  

Hear how Suzanne describes how the Gateless concept came to her. It's so inspiring. Realizing there are no gates, there's nothing stopping us from taking next steps.  

People are craving change but get stuck because they can't see the big picture. They don't know what to do to make the desired change. In our culture we look backwards for assurances which isn't helpful. The pragmatist acknowledges what is required to make a change and strategizes to make it possible.   

Look toward the pieces of your life that bring you joy. Start there. Identify a bridge that helps you get from where you are now to where you want to be. Suzanne shares a great example of this.  

Hear how to learn the methodology to become Gateless. This is something that anyone can do if there is a desire to stop self-criticizing.  

Start with a small step.
