Do You Have It in You or You Got To Believe?
Now, you're clear of the blogging myths (as discussed in yesterday's post)
Now, you are excited to launch your blog and get going... right?
Well... not so fast, tiger :)
Before you start, I want you to learn the most crucial element of your success...
And, before I reveal the element
Let me ask you something...
Do you know that... There are 100 thousand blogs out there, and thousands of blogs started every day.
But...
Only 2% to 4% of the blogs succeed, and rest of them die without seeing much daylight
Why?
It's not that all those bloggers out there don't have the skills or the knowledge it takes to write great blog posts. They are fully capable of writing amazing content.
But still, most of them fail
because...
They don't have the right mindset
A business mindset
Yes…a business mindset
Because…
Growing a blog is like building any other business
And success takes time, patience, and dedication.
That's something people don't consider when they start blogging
They expect hundreds of visitors to their first post... and tens of comments
They expect shares and likes
Unfortunately, none of this happens [unless you launch your blog with a great plan and preparation]
You need to remember that to be successful; you got to be persistent.
You might get frustrated...
It might get harder to go on...
You might not get the idea to write or time or even both...
You might hit the brick wall...
You might wonder for whom are you writing...
More people might tell you that you won't succeed..because you don't have what it takes...
you might feel all alone in the world...
...fighting a battle no one cares about
That's why you need persistence...
Because...
You can succeed, but only if you don’t give up.
And you cannot do it without the right mindset
What is the right mindset?
A mindset...
That is confident and assured.
And that believes (even when you don’t) that, you can do it.
Because... it's that confidence that can keep you fighting...
Especially when you’re starting…
But, It takes time to gain such confidence…
And while you gain the confidence, you have to adjust your thinking…
You got to train your brain to BELIEVE that you can do it.
Just telling yourself you can, is not good enough.
You have to believe it.
You have to push beyond some of the common limitations that people often put on themselves.
When you do so, everything changes
Trust me...
You don’t need a "break."
You don’t need "good luck."
You don’t need a lucky charm, rings with stones or something...
You got to push beyond the boundaries...and limitations
Please...
Don’t look for some "secret formula"
And forget about a push-button system or "miracle" software.
Because...
You already have everything you need to succeed in your blogging journey
This might sound odd...
But, this is the truth.
Most blogs and bloggers fail because they didn't believe that they have it in them.. .whatever they needed to succeed
Let's recap:
To succeed, you need the right mindset.
You need to believe you can do it [and succeed]
You need to believe you have what it takes [the skills and knowledge]
You need persistence and patience...
You should be willing to put the work and effort even when you do not see the [expected] results...
Because success doesn't happen overnight.
Take a day to think about it. I will see you on my next post
To Your Success,
