Why do I blog?
Here are my favorite things about owning my own blog:
- I get to work from home.
- I am in charge of my content.
- It is a creative outlet for me.
- I get to use my writing skills.
- My entire family has fun putting this blog together.
- It is so rewarding to positively influence and encourage others.
Back in the day, I was a newspaper reporter and later an editor. During that time, I had to cover some pretty boring topics. Now, I LOVE that I write about fun stuff. As an added benefit, my family and I have so much fun creating the content for this site.
Out of every job I’ve ever had, blogging is the most challenging and rewarding. I look forward to working on my site every day. I love hearing from readers and getting your feedback. I still can’t believe the opportunities that are available to bloggers. It is amazing.
So, if you are thinking about starting a blog, figure out why you want to pursue it. Once you make this discovery, you can easily decide how you want to set up your site.
