Today, I have grown this blog into many thousands of monthly readers, I even have formed great friendships through this blog, have earned a tremendous income that permits me to retire whenever I’d like, and that I love what I do.
My blog has grown into an exquisite business that has allowed me to enjoy my work, have a flexible schedule, and earn an excellent living.
Blogging was something I started and worked on in addition to my full-time day job as a financial advisor and after some time I started blogging, I quit my day job to blog full-time.
Blogging has allowed me to need control of my finances and earn extra cash. It means I can work from home, travel whenever I might like, have a versatile schedule, and more!

Here’s what I like and have learned about blogging.
1. You are the boss.
When I first started my blog and realized I could make an income from it, I quickly learned what proportion I like being my very own boss.
I love being in complete control of what I do, and becoming self-employed may allow you to feel that way also. I enjoy deciding what I will be able to do every day, creating my very own schedule, determining my business goals, handling everything behind the scenes, and more.
Running a web business (and being your boss) might not be for everybody, but it’s something I enjoy. # BOSS
2. Having a versatile schedule may be a life-changer.
One of the simplest things about working for yourself and being a blogger is that you simply can have a versatile schedule.
You can work from home or from anywhere in the world. That's the best thing about the blog. I that I gave you a flexible time
But, this will even be something to take care of also, because it is often difficult to possess an honest work-life balance.
3. work from home
Yes! Blogging allows me to work from home and now I make online from. It is a great thing working from home. There is no overhead of an office job. I don’t need to wake up early and be ready for the job.
Blogging changed my life drastically. Now I am a full-time blogger.

4. Remember, success takes time!
Many bloggers quit just a couple of months in. The statistic I’ve always heard is that the typical blogger quits just 6 months in.
I completely understand – starting a blog is often super overwhelming! But, good things don’t come easy.
5. Don’t write when you feel forced.
One thing that I learned from blogging is don't force yourself to write an article. I write the article when I am not forced or I do not have a deadline.
Instead, I always attempt to write content before time.
I would like to read my blog when I am not stressed and that’s the reason why I writing great blog content every time.
I like to be a minimum of a month ahead, as then I can truly write once I feel inspired and happy to write down.
6. Keep learning and increase your knowledge
Pretty much everything about having a blog may be a learning process.
Blogging isn't a get-rich-quick scheme, and anyone who tells you that it's (or acts love it is) is lying.
Blogging is so easy if you believe in yourself and are ready for doing something new.
Blogging is often tons of labor, and there's always something to find out. Something is usually changing within the blogging world, which suggests you'll get to still learn and adapt to the technology around you. This includes learning about social media platforms, running an internet site, growing your platform, writing high-quality content, and more.
This is something that I like about blogging – it’s never stale and there’s always a replacement challenge.
7. Stop seeing other bloggers as competition.
Okay, so this isn’t exactly something that I’ve learned personally, but I would like everyone else to find out.
So many bloggers see other bloggers as enemies or competition, and this is often an enormous mistake.
I mostly see this in newer bloggers, and this will hold them back.
Networking is extremely important if you would like to make a successful blog. Bloggers should be hospitable making blogging friends, attending blog conferences, sharing other blogs’ content with their readers, and more.
I’ve made great friends who are bloggers and influencers, and it’s truly an excellent community to be in.
8. You don’t need the experience to start a successful blog
To become a successful blogger there is no need of any skill set I am also starting my career in blogging with no skills. You don’t get to be a computer wizard, understand social media or anything.
These are all things that you simply can learn as you go.
Nearly every single blogger was fresh at some point, and that they had no idea what they were doing.
With blogging, you’ll have tons to find out, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. It’s challenging but in a great way.
9. You can make a living blogging.
This is probably one of the simplest things that I’ve learned since I first started my blog.
You can make a living blogging!
No, not every single person will become a successful blogger (it’s NOT a get-rich-quick scheme), but I do know many successful bloggers who started similarly as I did.
10. last thing 'I love my work'
Some days, I’m so surprised that I can make a living blogging.
It is something that I just enjoy so much and it is a huge passion of mine.
I enjoy writing new blog posts, talking with readers, researching and improving monetization methods, working with companies, being active on social media,
Do you have any questions for me about blogging or starting a business?
