Time to Get Started with Blogging
What stories are in you? What needs to come out? What should be told? If you have read these pages for any length of time, if you have seen the many things that blogging can do for you, I can’t believe you aren’t considering a question like that. In fact, I’m confident that you are considering it.\
It is, in other words, time to get started with blogging. There’s no more reason to delay. If you don’t have a blog, or you have one that you haven’t been posting to regularly, you need to dig in and get started. Don’t wait. Do it today.
You can start a blog on your website; you can go to a dedicated blog platform (there are countless ones); you can post regularly using features on social media. The definition of “blog” has really expanded over many years. You can practically blog almost anywhere, now.
But you have to get started.
It’s normal to procrastinate. It’s normal to be reluctant to get started, or to commit consistently. What you should do, however, is commit to posting to your blog at least once a week. Set a regular day and time. Do it every week. Don’t miss a week. If something happens beyond your control, go back and backdate a post so that the posting record will remain intact.
“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” – Maya Angelou
Your posting record and its consistency will speak for itself. Your audience and the search engines will take notice. A consistent blog will grow organically over time as people discover it and come to rely on it.
Staying up on the mechanical part of blogging, on posting consistently and with substance… that’s the easy part. The hard work is the actual content that goes into it, but you’ll find that fun, interesting, and stimulating if you choose the right topic or topics.
If you learn anything from reading all this, if you take away anything at all, it should be this, simply and plainly: Start blogging. Don’t stop. It’s time to begin.
Good luck.
