I love hear bloggers talking about their journey of blogging and some of the discoveries they make alone the road. Today in this guest post Renee Mayne from Bra Queen does just that.
Everyone has a purpose, a reason as to why they start blogging.
Mine was because I had heard “It was good for business” So I started blogging using my business name.
I didn’t get much satisfaction from it because I was always thinking of the business name and my business partner and I was representing all three. I was holding back and wasn’t being true to myself or my personal opinions, I was playing it safe.
However I was enjoying the writing or blogging process and believed in what I was doing so I thought “I need to be 100% myself, I need a title.”
It’s like when you call a business do you like to talk to a machine or a person?
A person of course,
The exact same goes when you’re blogging and with that Bra Queen was born. I soon become more at home at my blog then at my business so I sold my business to pursue Bra Queen.
Once I gave myself freedom to be… Bra Queen Sky rocketed, I became so passionate with my writing and the topics. I was like a mad woman frantically typing at the keyboard and 80% of the time I was doing so through tears because I felt so strongly about the topics.
I write everyday because you have to be consistent but I vow to write honestly and passionately, everyday.
I look at blogs that I once loved however when they started blogging everyday I felt they lost their passion and drive. You can always tell just by reading them. I really try to just let myself be when I write.
The beauty of blogging is it gives people a chance to express themselves. You have a voice and you can be 100% you and people will either like you or they won’t, their choice. But at least you have given yourself permission to be.
I have learnt that in order to have a successful blog you have to be:
- Knowledgeable in your field (you should be anyway)
- Passionate
- Persistent
If you are those 3 things an abundance of opportunities will come your way.
Those 3 things have brought me this:
- Immense satisfaction
- Happiness within yourself and my career
- My Love Your Life Challenge starts 5th Oct then will be available via e-book
- Contributing Author in SPROUT WEALTH
- Contributing writer to various resource websites
- Oodles of new ventures with amazingly successful people
- Lingerie and Business Consultant, coaching businesses to a new found success.
- Multiple interviews online, on podcasts and on the radio.
Give yourself the freedom to be!
Are you holding back? Don’t.
