Hate
Unfortunately, there will be sad fucks who decide to spend part of their day to leave hate. I haven’t receive any hate in my blog comments as of yet, but there will be people out there that you know who don’t agree with what you do. Stick two fingers up and them and keep your head held high. Don’t let someones stupid comment ruin your day, and potentially stopping you from blogging.
Hard Work
Before I started my blog, I thought it would be something extremely easy. I mean, all you do it write, isn’t it? And yes, some people do ‘just write’, but for me personally, I have to come up with, and create posts every day since I blog 7 days a week. Also, I personally like to take photos for my posts, and interact with my followers, and the people who I follow. Yes, it doesn’t sound like hard work, but you’ll never truly know unless you become a blogger. It can take me days to write ONE post.
Expense
Don’t get me wrong. Blogging can be entirely free. My blogging experience on the other hand hasn’t been the cheapest. I pay for the premium upgrade on WordPress, and being a lifestyle/beauty blogger, I constantly want to get the latest product on the market. I see blogging as a hobby though. People who play golf spend hundreds of pounds on new equipment, so I don’t see blogging any different. I see blogging as much as a hobby as a golfer sees golf, and those hobbies are definitely addictive. If I had to be addicted to something, I would definitely rather be addicted to blogging than golf (or drugs)…
What It Teaches You
I have learnt so much in my short time of blogging. Not only has it taught me some amazing beauty tricks, photography tips, and even recipes, its taught me to be more organised, and how to meet deadlines. It’s taught me to save time, set goals and also had grown my confidence massively. I couldn’t recommend blogging enough.
How Much You’ll Love It
When I started, I heard how was how much work it was from a few people. It sounded more like a chore, than something I could enjoy. I’ve only been here since May, and I have fallen head over heels. I can’t believe its taken me this long to join up, and I don’t think I’ll ever stop. Give it a go and see what you think. You may hate it, or you may have found yourself a new career.
