Six types of blogging days


  1. “This is such a great idea!  People will love this!  I’m a wonderful blogger!  It’s so easy!”
  2. “What the #*$%# is wrong with my  #%*$%$ computer!!”
  3.  “I’m not used to writing here/at this time of day.”
  4. “Gosh I thought this post was going to be easier to write.  This is taking forever and it’s still not there yet.”
  5. “Is this post good enough?”
  6. “I have nothing to say.  I’ll never have anything to say. It’s all been said before.”

The hard part is: you have to post on all of these days.  And the dirty little secret is that no one, not even you, can tell which is which.
Keep at it.
(p.s. this post isn’t just about blogging)

Take down your ideas.

Blogging ideas come at all times. Put it in the notes in your phone and be relentless about it. Keep taking ideas down and putting it in a blog roll.

Over time, you'll start building a huge blog roll. And the bigger the blog roll, the more the ideas.

THen, when you set out to write.. one of two things will happen - 
1. You'll look through your blog roll and pick one you really like.. or
2. You'll have an idea you feel strongly about and ignore your blog roll..

Either way, you'll never be short of things to write about. :)
