Do you seem to slam into the same blogging problems again and again?
One confusing aspect of blogging failure eludes you.
First off, lighten up! Bloggers tend to beat themselves up for struggling and not pinpointing the cause of failure. But why would you waste energy in self-loathing when finding the solution to your blogging ills seems like the best use of your time, talents and skills?
The confusion: bloggers fail again and again because bloggers do not face fears in mind fueling failure.
Bury fear. Failure continues. Duck fear. Failure repeats. Be aversive. Blogging failure seems as predictable as the movie Groundhog Day, greeting your depressed blogging eyes again, and again and again.
But cutting through confusing failure with the clarity of facing fear instantly changes your blogging strategy.
Bloggers cannot get over what remains within.
Working 18 hour days for 7 days weekly stretching 6 months does not dissolve the fear in your mind. Observe bloggers who work long and hard for years yet fail. The fear in mind induces self-sabotage and failure no matter how much the blogger works.
Bloggers who face, feel and release fears in mind proceed from a success conscious mindset. Success-focused bloggers think, feel and act successfully to succeed. As within, so without, the talisman of wisdom states. Go within. Observe your mind as it is. Change your outer experience.
Face fears now. Dissolve the fuel for your blogging failures. Position yourself to succeed.
For example, imagine setting an intent to be in a billion places online. Even if the premise sounds completely unrealistic, observe how most bloggers who cling to similar lofty intents, behave. Most write and publish a few blog posts and guest posts then quit on fulfilling the intent.
Fear in the mind of most bloggers holds then back from being in 1 billion places online. Being in 1 billion places online is not impossible but attempting to do so with fear in mind is impossible because fear anchors you, holds you back and prevents you from being the person who appears to be everywhere.
However, gradually facing, feeling and releasing fears slowly but surely goads you to think, feel and act like a billion-place blogger. Perhaps you write and publish 1 blog post today and 3 guest posts today. Maybe you follow a similar strategy tomorrow. At the end of one month, 30 blog posts and 90 guest posts with your name attached pop up online.
A growing legion of bloggers promote each post, mushrooming your presence. After one month you show up in 5,000 places online. Digging deeper into fears in mind allows you to appear in 15,000 places online over your first 2 months.
Blogging struggles are in mind. Blogging success is in mind.
Everything is in your mind. Even the actions you take or do not take are in your mind because humans act based solely on their mindset. Someone appears to inspire you but you mentally chose to be receptive to their inspiration, first.
Truthfully, understanding this confusing but powerful blogging truth feels overwhelming at first because you observe your limitless potential on journeying deeper within your mind. I set a billion-places-online intent a while back. Slowly but surely the intent is manifesting as true.
52,000 backlinks point to Blogging From Paradise based on one web service. But I appear in far more places. Why? I gradually, patiently and persistently delve deeper into my mind to face my fears. Ferreting out fears allows me to be the blogger who appears in more spots. Note; appearing in more spots is not really for me but rather to be truly helpful for you. Intent counts!
Face fears in your mind. Clear the source of continued blogging failure. Free yourself to succeed.
