Hey! I’m at ProBlogger RIGHT NOW! Darren Rowse is giving his opening remarks and I thought I’d pop a post up here and add to it over the next day or so. Perhaps that will be helpful to you? Perhaps it will give you that feeling of tagging along? I’m going to give it my best shot!
1. Everyone feels a bit out of their league in this blogging caper – even Mr Rowse and this year’s speakers. ‘Ordinary’ people can do extraordinary stuff.
2. Darren likes looking at Christina from Hair Romance. JOKES.
3. Success has a lot to do with doing ‘Ordinary’ things.
4. Don’t wait ’til you know who you are to get started : Austin Kleon
5. Starting is a mindset – it’s not a moment – or a to-do
6. Your next big thing might be the little thing that’s staring you right in the face.
7. Get to know your readers – meet them and understand them.
8. What change do you want to create in your readers? Who are your readers? What do your readers need?
9. Don’t create fluff! Take your readers on a journey.
10. Persist! Success and greatness doesn’t happen overnight – just keep going!
11. Usefulness and meaning are the cornerstones of a great blog.
