When I was younger I always believed that I would do well in life. The truth is, I knew I had to be a go-getter and go get the life I aspired to have for myself. I knew I was not going to work just enough to get by thinking life would get better for me. If I did, that would definitely be stupid of me. I wanted something more for myself but I knew that it would require me to work three times more than the average person with no guarantee. I knew I had to take that chance and have fun while doing it. Then I learned about blogging. I did some research to help me understand what it takes to become a blogger and how to start a blog for free. The thought of starting my own blog was very interesting to me. This could be fun, I thought!

 I wanted a better life for my family and me. 

I was going through life trying to find a way to take matters into my own hands where I could be my own boss.

  • Feeling limited with 9-5s.
  • Not being able to travel freely.
  • Tired of making money for someone else other than myself.
  • Frustrated because your not making enough money to live a comfortable life..
  • Stressed out thinking this is all I have to look forward to.

When I first got the idea to begin blogging, I must admit I was lost. I needed a layout more like a blueprint. This is probably exactly what you’re thinking right at this moment. I was excited and eager to begin as soon as possible. I’m pretty sure you are as well. I must admit that it was very overwhelming.

Are you looking for a guide on “how to start blogging”? I sure needed one myself! 

There is no way I would’ve been able to be consistent creating content for my blog. There was one knew dor sure, and that is I needed to work on myself. I needed to prioritize my life before committing my energy and time to become a blogger.

 I heard of the term blogging but I did not know everything about blogging.

 It wasn’t until after I started my first venture in my e-commerce online business.

 I was always interested in becoming an entrepreneur, so I opened my very own online store. I was new to this so of course, I made some mistakes. I made my adjustments and got my very first sale a month. I had to create a website and drive traffic to my site from scratch. Neither of these two things have ever been done by me before! My motivation and want for success propelled me to my goals. However, do to a few drastic changes I retired that online business.

I thought, “Is it possible to create a blog for free?” After researching, I realized that I didn’t have the knowledge and skills to start a completely free blog. My advice to you is to take that drive and motivation and allow it to push you through the obstacles that deter at this present moment.
