CHECK OUT THESE 10 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD START A BLOG

Hi Everyone,

How is everyone doing? I hope you had a great start of the year. I don’t even know where to begin since it’s been a while since I came on here and wrote something. A little update about my life, so we moved house and still have stuff in boxes, I am yet to put up curtains and drill holes. My son had to change schools and the closest one is apparently out of spaces left. My school runs are not as exciting as before but he will still have to change schools again come next school year. Anyway, it’s been a lot and I have literally not felt like writing anything nor have I recorded any recipes. So, since February is here, I decided to give you reasons why you should start a blog today.

1. AS A HOBBY

This is a good first reason to start a blog because not everyone would want to risk there day jobs and go all in. So if you would like to figure out if it’s for you and begin doing some writing then starting a blog as a hobby is definitely something you can do. Also as a heads up, here are some of the mistakes I did before launching mine.

2. SHARE YOUR STORY

Everyone has a story be it traumatic, sad you name it. You can also make it like a journey you are starting, most people do weight loss journeys which you may already have seen online. Sharing your story can also be able to impact other people’s lives if they have gone through what you have hence helping them out in some sort of way and just providing comfort in the process. If you have a story to share, then I urge you to make it one of the reasons you should start a blog.

3. DEVELOP CREATIVITY

You will be shocked how starting a blog will tap into creativity you never thought you had. It really does help you to figure out what you have in you and definitely makes you realise that you are able to do more than you thought you could and once you see people interested in your content, it makes you more motivated to push through and continue doing it even if you end up making mistakes, just go ahead and give it a go.

4. STRESS RELIEF

Stress relief is also one of the reasons you should start a blog, we all know life happens and it can get the best of us but if you feel like releasing all that stress, then a blog is a good way to do so. I mean you could see a therapist and keep on answering how you feel all day but I think just writing it down does make you feel better, and yes I know you could do this in a journal too but I think a blog would be exciting.

5. IMPROVE YOUR WRITING SKILLS

When I started my blog, I never thought of how I could just continue writing and even come up with a blog post. I mean I am not perfect at all and there are some awesome writers out there but if you would like to improve your writing skills, then starting a blog won’t hurt at all and you never know you might like it and want to keep going and get noticed in the process.

6. INSPIRE/ HELP

Everyone has some knowledge on something be it, food, lifestyle, fashion just everything. If you know you have a skill that will help others, then start a blog and inspire others and assist them with some tips along the way. If you’ve been praised about your cooking, share your food, if you love design and your home is perfect then there’s also need for that. I am a sucker for great tips and DIYS and I like trying them out too. If you can help someone with the information you have, don’t let it die with you.

7. MEET NEW PEOPLE

Another reason you should start a blog is to meet new people. Yes I know blogging makes you such an introvert it can be crazy but there are many events out there and meetups that if you’re interested in attending, then you end up meeting new people and creating long term friendships around it too. This may not be for everyone but it does help for some.

8. GAIN CONFIDENCE

We are not all born with confidence and it’s something that ends up developing in you. When you start a blog and just get that first view or comment, it does boost your confidence a bit and the more you continue doing it, then you do end up developing a level of confidence in you. It doesn’t hurt to try right?

9. GET OUT OF YOUR BUBBLE

Sometimes you are generally an introvert and maybe you need to get out of your bubble to just see what you can be able to achieve so before you throw yourself out there, you could try by starting a blog first even anonymously and just proceed from there plus it will give you something to look forward to when you start your day, making you get out of your bubble one blog post at a time.

10. SHARE YOUR TALENT

Last but not least, you will not believe how many people have talent out there but just end up not letting it out or even showing it. Don’t let your gift go unnoticed so go ahead and own it. It can be anything and once you tap into it, you will definitely know it’s what you should be doing by the way that you feel. So if you have some talent, you should start a blog and share it with the world, remember there is more than enough room for you too.

There you go, 10 reasons why you should start a blog. I also know that blogging is not for everyone but for those who would love to give it a try, I don’t see why not and it is profitable if done right. I hope you enjoyed this post today and as I try to get things on track, I do wish you a lovely month. If you missed my previous posts, do remind yourself by stopping by here. Until then see yah and do tell me how’s 2020 working out for you?
