I don't want to repeat my ultimate mistake
Hey everyone! It's been a while since I wrote a new blog post. Today, I want to be real with you about something. One of my past blog post, I declared that I will write 100 articles by August 29th, 2019. I came to the decision to delete that goal because I didn't want my blog to end up being an unpassionate project.... Let me explain where I am coming from.
STORY TIME!!!
2 years ago, I found my passion through digital painting. I see it as a hobby and I post my drawings via Instagram. Last year, I went to a business event and invested in a coach because I didn't know what to do with my life. He suggested combining digital paintings and art coach therapy business and I thought, " THAT'S A GREAT IDEA!"
I mean you have heard the saying that you got to do something you love so that it doesn't feel like a job. Well, I have learned that it doesn't work like that. My passion for digital paintings went sour as soon as I made it into a business. I saw my creativity decreased and most importantly saw it as more of a chore. I haven't touched my wacom tablet ever since that incident and vowed myself to never to something like that again.
Now coming back to this, I don't want my articles feel like a chore. Quality should be more important than quantity and I noticed I have been hesitated on my blog for quite some time. So far, I wrote 9 articles and I should be writing more if I want to reach at least 2k/mo by the end of August.
I'm experiencing impostor syndrome and a bit of confidence issues. I'm not sure if you guys ever had that fear of not being successful. If you do so and conquer that, please feel free to comment down below any tips or message me.
Sometimes I feel like if I'm doing the right niche for my blog or if I'm the right spokesperson for my niche. I know at the beginning for me, I feel conflicted and not sure if blogging is even right for me. I will still keep pushing through and learn new things along the way.

I can relate to that, I have not had any real success since joining WA and at times I wonder if I am doing the right thing.
I know that I have made some mistakes on my first site, and I have started another
On those days when I feel a lack of confidence and feeling to not go any further, I remember my motto "giving up is not an option"
So I push myself I sometimes I come across a post that gives me hope (I like those post) and I encourage myself, Deep down in my heart I feel I will be successful.
So Do not ever give up It is never an option
Remember, your job is to try to help people, to give a solution to their problem when writing articles you educate them, therefore the more comfortable they will be with your advice and the more likely they are to make a purchase and earn you money, be sure to focus on that, when publishing article does quality matter or quality?
Both are important, but if you have to pick one over the other, I would say the quality is more important then quantity it's better to publish one high-quality article per week then ten mediocre quality.
Be consistent and you'll see results.
