As I was scratching my head, committed to writing a blog post, but not committed to a topic, I ran across a great article by a Twitter friend of mine, Adam Baker, called “How NOT to Suck at Blogging…”
Well, I definitely don’t want to suck at blogging, and I don’t want my customers and blog readers to suck at blogging, so I was intrigued.
Now the article itself is more about blogging for monetization (whereas most of my readers and clients are blogging for business) BUT the blog post had several gems that overarch all types of blogging and in fact all types of business. Adam Baker, the Man vs. Debt’s blog author sums up the video shown below by Gary Vaynerchuk nicely.
No non-sense follow your passion.
Giving a shit about your readers.
Stop crying. Keep Hustling.
Legacy is greater than currency.
The nature of the game is changing. [still is]
“Stop watching f***ing Lost”
Unlike Adam Baker, however, I’m a little embarrassed to admit that I’ve NEVER watched this video. No wonder people love this guy. He’s so unedited. It’s refreshing.
Now what are you waiting for? Go follow your passion. NOW! Doing what you love to do will not only ensure that you don’t suck at blogging, but you won’t suck at life either.
