I always feel that having a lot of interest i just stopping me from doing anything more productive. It stop me from really doing something.
I guess I have to stick to something that could give fun to myself while earning and building something.
And yeah, I would agree that we should also think outside the box and try new more things to grow.
What kind of website?
It's a personal website under my name, my initial plan was to use it as my portfolio but as time passes by I want to monetize it but I always feel lazy making research for content and SEO.
My plan now is to re-publish content from Hive to my website and vice versa just for the sake of repurposing but the problem is I don't think I will reach readers if I will post personal blogs just like what I do on Hive.
I think following the plan can be overrated. If you get really excited, you just do work and it doesn’t feel like work.
So I just ask myself, what would be exciting right now? And I do it. And a lot of times the first few minutes is hard so that’s the only time I push myself.
What would make you excited the most right now? I mean like today or next time you have free time? Moving your posts to the website?
What makes me excited is to see the progress of my website. It's like milking my pocket for domain renewal and never got any monetary value from it since from the very start and I want to flip it into a profitable website (at least)
then get excited and do it!!!! I am doing something similar at Substack, posting all my old stuff there. Basically I’m in recycle mode, finding nice and powerful ways to recycle all my old work because it’s less intense so I can start working on new work without having to hibernate to focus on it 100%
Are your content more likely a personal blog or informative?
I try to blend the two. I want to teach things but I don’t want to lecture or just speak at people cause I don’t think it’s fun for me or the reader. So I try to make it personal. Which is also fun.
Feel free to check out my last two posts. I kinda of flow between styles but try to always make it fun for me and the reader and somewhat beneficial to someone
We have the same thinking about this, I always feel bored when reading a very informative blog post so I make it somewhat personal with my experience.
Thanks, will check it out.
Ah sorry I made a mistake, not the latest two! I’d recommend “love and death” or “becoming the master of your emotions”
