How to be a Persistent Blogger

Posted on 07. Dec, 2009 by Isaac Yassar in Blogging

persistentGod day my friends!

Some of you might still remember my old motto of blogging success: learning, hard-working, and persistence. Today we will discuss about the third, persistence.

I want to talk about it because I just experienced something related to persistence. As you know, I paused blogging for about two months to finish my graduating paper of college (October – November 2009).

After the pause, I found it hard to be back as an active blogger again. My mind was not in blogging any longer. I lost my interest on blogging a lot. I was thinking of quitting blogging. But I didn’t quit. You won’t see this post if I quitted.

The turning point is when I wrote about the change of my life in my post Update!.

I actually just wanted to inform everyone about why I didn’t write new posts for a while. But from the comments of the post, I learn that my buddies are always supporting me.

It reminded me of the phrase I always said to my buddies, “We grow together”. It surprisingly brought my blogging spirit back.

Now I am fully enjoying blogging again. I am glad to be here. Thanks to my buddies and everyone who visits my blog.

I think it is what they call persistence. We can lose our interest, we can think about quitting, but we don’t. We can take some break, we can rest for a while (or for two months), but we don’t stop. We finally (or somehow) find a way to keep going on.

How to be a persistent blogger? IMO, you are a persistent blogger if a hard time forces you to stop, but somehow you don’t.

    Yes, sometimes it’s hard to keep posting every week over and over again if you don’t see satisfactory results.

    No great achievement is possible without persistent work.

    See you buddy :D

    Yes, persistence and perseverance is the key to blogging, and everything beyond that. No wonder just 5% of my clients, students and friends who started the same year as I did [1999] are still making money online, while others struggling…
