Reason Not To Blog: It is too hard to write
Then don’t. That’s the simple solution. Stop driving yourself crazy and beating your head against the wall.
And if you can’t. Then deal with it. You will have to find a way.
Writing and blogging is a bitch. There are times when you are in the groove.
I had been slowly writing a post a day for a few weeks when I wrote this post. Today I edited about 7 to get them ready for publishing, wrote another 3 and came up with about 20 new ideas for articles.
The Pressure of Rules

Reason Not to Blog #1: There are too many rules
I almost did it. I almost didn’t write today. I woke up less than motivated. Why? Because I did not get some work done last night and I am feeling a bit guilty. see I have turned myself into a slave to hourly work again and since I care about my work it bums me out. Every hour I spend working on a project makes me more money, but the hours I need to work keep increasing. I am getting burned out on building cracker boxes.
Reasons Not To Blog – A Series

A Few Weeks Ago
A few weeks ago I started writing posts and saving them on my desktop. You see, each one of the posts I wrote in the last year was meant to be the beginning of a new start blogging, if not daily, at least a couple of times a week.
But each time, it never happened. I just started a series on my Affiliate Marketing Blog about creating content that just started with one post and stopped right there. But I have a good start on that series now too.
Just Write An Email
I wrote this article a long time ago, before I had a blog. It references Outlook, so it had to be a while ago. I haven’t used Outlook in a long time.
After reading the about William Saroyan and how he wrote The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze by writing a story a day for 30 days, I wrote 30 articles in the same time and spread them all over the internet.
What Makes You Money?

This is what you should be doing.
Ignore the rest.
Of course, only if you are here for the same reason I am.
Did I just piss off some “natural and organic” internet denizens or what?
A note to them. The internet is made up of bits and bytes. There are people in behind them, but no matter how long you explore it, it is not going to be made out of granola and twigs.
Is this an explanation of why my posts have dropped off? Yes and no.
How to Create More Content for Your Products

How do I write about my products? I have built a lot of different sites for a lot of different people and this question always comes up. I’m not quite sure why. Some of these people had had brick and mortar stores for years But somehow when it comes to writing about their products, they draw a blank.
And I can understand that. Most people don’t like to write. And if that’s the issue, I can understand that. But don’t tell me you don’t have anything to say about your product.
