Writing Challenges - How to Overcome Them
I haven't blogged that long yet but I have noticed that there are common problems that writers has, including myself.
Thankfully there are ways to overcome these blocks. These are the most common ones that I have noticed.
1. Niche
If you ask for anyone; is selecting your niche relevant? The answer will be YES. Some of us had no problems with choosing the right niche that you are passionate about, but it might not be that easy to everyone.
The most important thing about selecting the right niche is that you are really passionate and interested in to the specific topic. You have to have confidence to deliver the information to your followers.
2. Starting your writing career
had problems with this one. I have never been a great writer, not even in school. I don't know why, but it has never been easy for me.
Start writing without any experience might be the hardest thing at first but when you overcome that, you feel like superstar ππͺ
3. Lack of ideas
This just happened to me. I posted my last post on Saturday and after that I had no ideas on my mind. I bet this happens to everyone and here are some ways to get ideas what to write on.
- Close your computer and go out for a walk. Refresh your head with fresh air. You might get more ideas somewhere else than staring your empty writing template.
- Read more, including books, blogs or anything that comes your way. It might open yourself to new ideas that can contribute to what you really desire to write.
- Research from internet what to write.
4. Confidence
This one is a dangerous problem. If you face this one, you are not getting anywhere. Being confident does not only mean that you know your niche but it also means that you are ready demand what you are worth.
Your fears are your biggest enemies and you shouldn't think "what if"? You won't be able to focus on your dreams when you are thinking what else might happened. Like Arnold
Schwarzenegger said on his motivational speech: "Forget plan B. To test yourself and grow, you have to operate without a safety net."
So, stick to your plan A! πͺ

I can really relate and you are not alone in this! I struggle to create consistent content for my sites as well and there are times when I just stare at a blank white screen but these are some great ideas that we can all use to get past writers block & create more content. What works for me as well is jumping over to Jaaxy. Playing around with different keywords and phrases usually triggers some creative juices. Thanks!

Well said Mira! My biggest challenge is focus. Speaking of which, I need to get back to focusing on the article that I have been working on for several days.
Thanks Sondra!
That's true, focusing is hard but really important thing! Go back to your article! πͺ
Focus is huge for me as well! Once I get going Iβm good but sitting down to focus on my task at hand, just that starting point presents the challenge. Good luck to you all. π
Settling at a niche has been a problem and up till now not so sure if the one taken is the best ,
content writing will be another struggle, but I βm taking my time to get in all learning from the trainings and blogs from the community
It really depends what you are passionate about? What you are really interested about? π

Hi Mira! I enjoyed your post because I too have issues with writing. What helps me is reading and checking out other peoples articles and websites. I kind of surf randomly until something triggers an idea. Sometimes it happens unexpectedly!
Hey!
Thank you so much! That really helps me too! πͺ Have a great week!
