THE AUTHOR'S
JOURNEY
My journey to becoming an author has been quite a roller coaster. It has been full of personal growth, experimentation, and a genuine desire to inspire others. I’ve always loved writing much better than speaking—whether it was writing case study papers for my MBA or expressing my thoughts through poems and journaling.
But writing a whole book felt like a completely different ballgame! I started off feeling a bit lost, experimenting with four different book ideas before finally landing on "Who Do You Think You Are?". I even wrote 40 pages on a different concept before realizing I needed to pivot and create something that could genuinely change how people see themselves.
"I wanted to ensure that people had the mindset of positivity and empower others to recognize their worth and potential."
I decided on a unique format: a quick and easy read where each chapter is a mini-story that starts and ends with a thought-provoking quote. I wanted to give readers practical tools—affirmations they could use to rewrite their internal narrative and reflection sections to record insights that resonate.
Writing this book has been both challenging and liberating. It’s allowed me to dive deep into my own journey while creating something I truly hope will resonate with many.
WHY I WRITE
This book came from a personal place. Like many of you, I’ve had challenges, doubts, and days when everything felt overwhelming. Journaling was my safe space to remind myself that I was capable of more than I believed.
I wrote this book for anyone who has ever felt stuck or questioned their worth. It’s about believing in yourself, pushing through obstacles, and recognizing that you already have what it takes to succeed.
Believe in Your Journey
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?
In this life-changing adventure, China Watson takes you on an uplifting journey of self-discovery. The book is packed with real-life stories about people from all walks of life—from Horace, a hardworking dad battling inner doubts, to August, a determined teenage mom rising above challenges.
China emphasizes that real success isn’t just about money or status; it’s about happiness, peace, good health, and meaningful connections. She shares valuable lessons on perseverance and personal growth, encouraging readers to see challenges as stepping stones.
INSPIRATION BEHIND THE STORY
One of my favorite characters to write was Jaiyana. Her journey represents a reflection of my own struggles with the transformative power of overcoming adversity.
Facing significant challenges—including health scares during the uncertainty of COVID—acted as a wake-up call for Jaiyana, forcing her to reevaluate what truly mattered. Similar to her, I've learned that facing difficulties head-on can lead to profound personal transformation.
"Every challenge is an opportunity for growth."
"Your beliefs about yourself and your capabilities are the foundation for everything you will achieve."
"There is power in the way you think."
QUOTES FROM THE BOOK
"You have everything you need to be successful. You are capable, deserving, and powerful enough to pursue your dreams."
"You are who you THINK you are."
"True success is defined by the intangible qualities that shape who we are—health, happiness, peace, freedom, and confidence."
"What you believe, you receive."
