I don't know where to start?

  • I don't know what to say!
  • Never written content in my life, so don't know where to begin!
  • Reading what others blog, they say I need to relate to my business?
  • Where do I get ideas for my blogs?

I'm not a techie!

  • I don't know how to write about SEO.
  • Never wrote a book or an article... how can I comment on that?
  • Afraid I will embarrass myself.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step". Chinese proverb.

You just gotta start!

  • If you never start, you'll never get anywhere.
  • Never launch your boat and you'll never learn to sail.

    "The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails."
    William Arthur Ward

Don't worry about getting it right. Never stop to think about what others say or think.

You will never learn to write if you don't write... isn't that profound?

Lovely, and in addition:

A person could record herself while on a lengthy telephone call or in a conversation where they are doing all the talking. That is much like a blog. Perhaps not too structured yet, but it's a start.

A recorder may not be such a good idea as others may not want to be recorded.

But, listen to self making a point to a sibling or friend about something you bought and why you selected the vendor you did, and so on.

They just need to back up any claims with some references, like Wiki (a tip from our Friday night training); replace the hand gestures, the facial expressions, and the tone of the voice with some free pics online.

Let's not forget those 'and let me tell you' or 'you haven't heard the worst part yet' or 'and then' or other common phrases indicating a new thought. In lieu of those, create a new paragraph with headings.

You see, you've been blogging all your life.

This is so true. All those words and questions grinded in my head when I first started out here at Wealthy Affiliate. Then you read other people's blogs, and trainings. You get motivated.

Before you even know it you start writing out your content. Now I struggling with its not enough time throughout the day to write.

So true Joe, how else could you end, if you don't start? It doesn't matter what others think, after all it is their opinion. But when disappointment lurks at the back of your mind at the end of the day, it's a cue for you to look for the quiet voice saying " I will try again tomorrow". And you come back to it later, with insight, because the best critic is within and you will know when you are on a roll, that you are bringing forth the treasures hidden within, which is what writing is all about!

Thanks Joe. You're right. Just start. We will all put it together in a fashion that works for us but if you don't start you won't know what that is.
i used to write real estate valuation reports from one page to 200 pages. i do all my research then put that in a "kind of order" and then start writing. This works for me but others may do it differently. I still have to learn to be a little more creative and make sure it comes from the heart.
Take care and have a great day
Stephen
