The Patient Builder: From Waiting to Launched
A Novel About Building an Online Business the Honest Way—No Hype, No Manipulation, Just Real Progress
THE PROBLEM (Are You Stuck in the Waiting Pattern?)
You've been researching for months. Maybe years.
You've bookmarked the courses. Watched the webinars. Saved the links. Joined the groups. Made the plans.
But you still haven't shipped anything real.
Sound familiar?
You spend hours consuming content about online business but produce nothing
You compare tools endlessly but never commit to one
You tell yourself you're "almost ready" but the deadline keeps moving
You're skeptical of the hype but don't know who to trust
You start strong but abandon projects when they feel imperfect
You're tired of promises that sound too good to be true (because they are)
Here's the truth most people won't tell you:
You're not lazy. You're not incapable. You're not behind.
You're just stuck in a pattern called waiting—and it's costing you time, confidence, and the business you could be building right now.
THE SOLUTION (A Different Kind of Business Story)
The Patient Builder isn't another "get rich quick" fantasy or motivational manifesto that leaves you pumped up but no clear plan on what to actually do.
This is a true-to-life novel that follows Colin Brooks—a cautious, analytical researcher just like you—through his 90-day journey from paralysis to launch.
No overnight millions. No laptop lifestyle BS. No manipulation tactics.
Just the real, honest steps of building an online business when you're:
Working a full-time job
Managing a family
Operating on a tight budget
Skeptical of hype
Committed to doing it ethically
What Makes This Book Different
It's a novel that teaches a complete system:
Every chapter follows Colin's journey AND includes the exact frameworks he creates along the way. You get the emotional truth of the struggle AND the practical tools to overcome it.
It prioritizes patience over promises:
No income claims. No inflated timelines. No fake urgency. Just sustainable progress that compounds trust.
It's anti-hype by design:
Colin explicitly rejects the manipulation tactics flooding the online business world. He builds with integrity—and proves it works better long-term.
It documents real psychology:
The doubt. The skepticism. The family pressure. The comparison spirals. The fear of looking foolish. If you've felt it, Colin feels it too.
