What’s the perfect job? What about a job where you are your have boss, you set your personal hours, work right from home, never have to deal with unreasonable deadlines and get to do something you like doing? Sound good? Well that’s the job description of a blog owner. That, however , is the not the whole story! There are incredibly, very few bloggers who have nothing else to do but work on their blog and even fewer with a blog that provides a significant source of income so blogging can be, for most, a second or even a third job.
There are two basic types of bloggers, the casual blogger and the serious blogger.
The casual tumblr may have a fundamentally well balanced life and a blog that is primarily a hobby. The casual blogger begins writing a post, act on it for a while and then stop to get some other things done until he or she feels like writing once again. If a finished post shouldn’t get many comments, that may be OK; the post indicated just what the casual blogger wanted to say and it is very out there if anyone is interested.
The serious blogger’s situation is quite different from the casual blogger’s. The serious blogger has a blog that he or she considers to be a job — a position that may be competing with other significant elements of life such as a key job, a family, a sociable life and adequate relax. The serious blogger is dedicated (almost to the point of your obsession) to maintaining his / her blog and feels costly essential element of daily life. Crucial blogger feels dejected in cases where any post sits over the blog for twenty-four hours or so without generating a comment or if the blog’s hit counter does not signup a certain number of visitors every day. That kind of commitment to operating a blog may take a big hunk of your time out of the day and can easily create some serious disputes between blogging and the associated with life — to avoid this, the serious blogger needs to be sorted and efficient.
Time management for the blogger! Anyone who feels the fact that the day is too short has to understand and implement the usual principle of time management: setting up priorities. Some things are certainly more important than other things but some important things may be left unfastened unless you are controlling your program and not having random happenings control you. You need to collection priorities and live simply by them.
Generate a priority list! To begin environment priorities, make a list of everything you should get done — everything which includes things you’ve committed to doing, things you want to do, things you understand you should do and items that you really don’t want to do but are on your mind. Be honest and put all the things on the list — take a few hours or more to put this together if you need that much time, it will be time well put in because you are about to get organized.
Significant: You will be using and changing this list every day thus create the list using a few program that will allow you to maneuver list items around, add items, remove items and save the list. Categorize! At this moment carefully consider each item on the list and put each a person into one of the following five categories.
Must get it done today
Must get it done now
Nice to do and might be beneficial
Nice to do although not really necessary
Unnecessary
Now you have a decent priority list. Start every day with this kind of list and every time you become aware of a new task add it in a proper location to the proper category. As the must do items are accomplished and moved off the list, a few of the nice-to-do items may be transferred up, but only if their very own priorities can honestly be changed.
Too many must-do things! If the list of items in the two Must get it done… categories is mind-boggling, reconsider each item’s importance and re-prioritize if you can, if not select the items that you truly don’t have to do yourself, items like fix-it projects, business phone calls, business letters, www.mokings.cf editing and proofreading jobs, etc . — some of these things may be able to be performed just as well by someone else. Get a friend, family member, co-worker or maybe a freelancer to do it for you.
