“Yes, blogging is entertainment. It is performance. Each blog post a show, sometimes an opera, sometimes a 30 second commercial. Like a show, it may start with a bang, lead you along from song to song, have a great climatic moment, then leave the audience wanting more.” ~ Lorelle One lesson I’ve taught myself the hard way through my blogging experience is to not sell myself short. This lesson applies to all aspects of my life and not just blogging. I shouldn’t sell myself short on how much I know about online marketing, how much I know about design / programming / computers / etc. I shouldn’t sell my short how much I know about blogging either. The reason why I shouldn’t sell myself short when it comes to blogging is because if I do I will get down on myself and think I can’t do what I set out to do. If I get to negative I am bound to fail from the beginning and won’t get anywhere. So I’ve slowly learnt to not sell myself short in any aspect of my life. I’ve learn to give myself a pat on the back on everything I know, I do, and I learn from. With this mentally I am sure to succeed in reaching my goals. Do You Sell Yourself Short?

You won’t be happy and overall you will be sad you start blogging in the first place. I don’t want to see you go down that road so DON’T SELL YOURSELF SHORT! Do You Have Trouble Staying Motivated?
