Taking the step to become a new blogger can be terrifying. The world of blogging can be daunting and overwhelming for many different reasons. However, that should not stop anyone from wanting to pursue their dream of starting a blog.

I am going to be honest with you, I did not start blogging because I thought I would enjoy it, or because I had ever looked at a blog before. I started blogging as a way to earn a side income for relatively cheap. I didn’t think that I would love blogging the way I do. I thought I would blog simply to get to my end goal. I can tell you that this is not the case anymore. I absolutely love blogging! I get to be creative, I get to be myself AND I get to help others! What is not to love? Blogging is now something I do because I want to do it and love doing it, not simply because I am required to do it.

Blogging can be A LOT of fun especially when you are writing about something you are passionate about. Trust me. Finding the right blogging topic can be difficult but the most important thing is to write about what makes you happy or something you are passionate about. With that being said, I think we can all agree that it would be nice if we could write and have fun while also making a profit.

I find that the easiest way to get engaged with followers is to be honest. Be yourself. Ultimately, no matter what blog idea you write about or base your blog on, you are writing about yourself. You are telling your readers a story about your journey, your ideas, your successes and you are sharing with them your life! Don’t be afraid to talk about your failures, your successes and so much more with your blog!
