Nice Post. I strongly agree with your last point “why you want to blog” … it’s very important.. ! ..
!!
Anyways, other points are good as well.
Thanks for sharing this great post.
Stats keep me going. Blogging is a passion and not work.
I am just a starter harsh. Really this is useful. The way you put your related posts is impressive and dragging me to land many other posts. Nice one.
I liked these tips a lot… Recently I was suffering from procrastination because of lessened motivation… I realized that this was becoz I was focusing more on results than actually working for it.
Harsh, it would be grate if you share your daily schedule with us in a post…. Since, you manage 3+ blogs… It would be really nice to know “what drives you” and “how you manage the time” …
Also dont distract by using social media sites at while writing post.
my common way is i read the other blogs all around and see what they are doing and then think that i can do the same….
I am happy that I can share what I know through blogs.. It doesn’t matter, whether it pays me or not
Thanks for the Article Harsh !! Can you share any article related to your past time when you feel demotivated for your blog….Regards
