Being The Best Blog Writer I Can Be

I am doing this. Not waiting till tomorrow, or the next day. I am starting right now. And I started

It wasn’t a dream of mine. It wasn’t even something I had a wanted to do. There was no desire involved. It’s just something that I decided. And the decision was made. No more questions. No hesitation. Just start.
Yeah, of course in the back of my mind all the arguments started flying back and forth. But I just didn’t listen. “Click”, and turned it off.
The decision was … “I am going to be the best Blog Writer that I can be.”


Just in case you are wondering “Why that?”
Well one day I was having a conversation. With myself. At first in my head. But then it turned verbal. It went something like this.
No, I am not qualified. And No! I don’t have any Writing Skills.
Yeah, I know, this is totally out of my realm. I get that. I am deep over my head.
How long is this going take? I have no idea. Your guess is as good as mine.
Ok fine, then how far do you really expect to get?
Beats me. To be honest, I don’t expect much. So probably not all that far.
But I am going to do this. I don’t care what you say. I am!

And that’s how it all began. A decision was made.


Yeah, ok, so, what if people talk about me. Calling me crazy, and stupid. He thinks he can be a Writer!
If I fail I know no one will let me live it down. They won’t forget. And keep reminding me too.
But you know what? Hell with them. If they won’t understand that I am trying to better myself then too bad for them. It’s not my problem. I don’t care if its family or friends. I don’t need them in my life.
Besides, if I make it, they’ll change their tune. And say things like “I always knew he would make it, someday. That boy has always had talent. And smarts.”
Of course neither is true. So again they would have it wrong.
So why should I listen, or care about them, if they don’t want to understand?

Yeah, change is scary. Who want to fall flat on their face in front of everyone? But I’ve adopted this attitude. Be curious. Wonder what’s going to happen. Know that something is going to happen when you change. And look forward to it. Tell yourself you want to see what is going to happen, and be curious about it.
When you change new challenges comes alone. New opportunities are offered to you. Doors, you never seen before, will open. Something will happen. It’s like when the Universe decides you are ready and can handle it, it sends new challenges your way.
Something will happen. I promise you it will.


Thought that was pretty good news? Well, here’s something even better.
When you have choices life becomes a whole lot more fun. Imagine, getting to pick and choose which new adventure to go on next. It’s like being at an Amusement Park, filled Cotton Candy and thrilling rides.
Yeah, change is hard, and scary. But it’s a lot of fun too.


Ok, so now you know a little bit more about me. So here is my own personal Mission Statement.
Blogging is not about blogging. It’s really about being a more capable, a more accomplished, a “New You”.
Robert Kiyosaki said it best. “Expand your means” Which is the perfect complement to finish “Live within your means”.
In other words you can’t spend more than you make, and you have to save for that rainy day because it will come. But at the same time “expand your means”, so you can live the life you want to life.
So go out there, learn to learn fast and well. Live Curious. And look forward to what’s coming next. Because “Life Is Exciting.”

So here is my question to you. How exciting is your life?

What a great blog! I am so glad I found you tonight. Thank you!

It happening slowly. The process is painful. And I may not be the sharpest tool in the tool box.

But it I am growing. That much is sure. Who I was last year is not who I am today.

And that's makes life exciting.

dam exciting and I love it `LOL

Hi craigOs,
I just started to read some of your blogs here on WA today and I really like your style of writing. I find it to be quite inspirational.

It's funny how I read your blog and earlier today I just so happened to see a quote that said: "it's only embarrassing, if you care what other people think" So I say, "screw em". Strive for your passion to be the best blogger and one day when they see how successful you have become, they'll come to you and ask you how you did it!


First let me say this. I don't consider myself a good Blog Writer. Far from it. So I am always learning more about writing.

But thank you the compliment.

With that said. Blog Writing is much more than just informing readers. It should lead readers to somehow. It should change readers, even if it's in a small way.

After reading your article they should feel their time was well spend. They should be smiling, at least in their minds.

When you do that they will remember you.

So I've learned to play with readers. Tease them. Tempt them. Make them see a different world, in my words.

My life? Never a dull moment. The one thing I know for sure I will think on my deathbed is: "At least it wasn't boring."

Yes, we make mistakes. We try and fail, try again and fail....but we have to keep moving FORWARD.

If you are determined enough, you can learn to be a good writer! I don't know anything about owning or running a website (or sales, for that matter)....but - I'm LEARNING.

Life-long learning. Trial, error, polish, succeed. Not always, of course. There are things I'd love to learn that I can't - like Calculus, and Physics, and how to ride a motorcycle. (I know this because I have tried all three). So, I moved on.

My life is anything but boring. And that's the way I want it - painful and scary as it sometimes is.

You GO!, craig!

lol...awesome comment...AWESOME! I love it. I agree with you so much. "At Least I Wasn't Boring".

I've talked to friends about Life Long Learning. Some rolled their eyes. Other's know what I mean, but don't know what to do.

Then there are a few who started deep conversations. Where they eventually asked in about what I am doing online.

Then they rolled their eyes...lol... Oh well. I'll keep trying. It's fun.

I want to show them that "expanding their means", instead of living within it, is a real, honest to goodness, possibility.

I thought you were describing me, then the voices told me no.

Brilliant! :)



Perry

lol...Perry. Oh ... those voices!

Sometimes they set me off on yet another crazy journey :-/

lol...funny girl... I believe you! . .. Considering how much I have gotten to know you through our chats. And thanks, again, for proof reading ti for me. I needed the second pairs of eye.

any time :)

Excellent blog Craig. :) I breath that's how I keep my life exciting lol.
I am exciting enough I suppose :)

thanks for your comment. Hey, I am just curious, What are you doing that's keep your life exciting?

I have 3 boys ages 4, 3, and almost 2.
hahaha. That's how life stays exciting.

lol...that's more than I would be able to handle...But...isn't having boys fun!

Life IS exciting!
