When I started this blog last year. At that time I am still a newbie, now I am still a newbie because there are always new things in blogging. Okay as a newbie blogger that time, I always read on how to be a successful blogger. A lot of tips on blogging, traffic, writing are available online, written by other bloggers.
I like to read about things related to being successful in blogging. However, there are some tips that I don't like to read. Specifically the post related to fail in blogging. How not to fail in blogging, why new blogger fail in blogging, etc etc.
I can buy the idea of being successful in blogging, but fail in blogging....? No!
There are several reason why 'failing in blogging' is not relevant (According to me)
- Blogging is not an exam - its not an exam like our exam. No teachers and lecturer are going to mark you blogging skill and give you a grade. So no F grade, guys.
- With blogging, we improve our self - Blogging improves our writing skill, website/blog design skill and maybe increase the size of our network. Is it called a fail?
- What is the benchmark of failing in blogging - Money? Traffic? Comment Count? Tell me. Yes, I agree, this benchmark has been used to show that someone is successful, but no benchmark for failing, right?
- Blogging is easy - Blogging is easy, setup a blog and start writing and publish it, Its just impossible to fail.
- Dare to fail? - Have you ever heard of dare to fail? If people are talking about dare to fail in life and business, so for blogging which we won't fail anyway, why bother thinking about not to fail in blogging. Try dare to success!
Okay, some people may not agree with me. But this is just my opinion. Blogging is plain easy and simple. You may fail to achieve your target to get several thousand a month from blogging or to get several thousand traffic a day. But you will not fail in blogging.
Keep blogging if you already have a blog. Make a blog if you don't have one. Its fun to write.
