Motivation is a hard thing to come by if you're lacking in it. Be it in eating sensibly, having a work out routine or writing blog posts.... Or life in general basically.
For the last couple of days my writing mojo has dropped.... I've drawn a blank. And then this post came to me. House chores, work, exercise health and fitness and maintaining a blog all have the same principles.
This is a few tips to help you with motivation and hopefully to succeed. You never know you becoming motivated may inspire others to join in with you. I've said motivated/motivation/motivate a lot haven't I??? Lol!!! Here goes.
Plan
Don't Give Up!!!!
You published a blog post, putting your heart and soul in to it and no one commented. Welcome to my world lol. No seriously... Just because it didn't go to plan, doesn't mean you should give up. Full off the bike, get back on the darn thing...That's right. Don't have a paddy if it didn't go your way or you didn't get the response you were hoping for.

Plan
Planning is the key to most things in life. Holidays, money, the weekly shopping at Asda .... They all take some kind of plan. A popular saying is 'if you don't plan, you plan to fail'. I believe this is completely true. At work the post-it and pen are my best friends. I'm always planning my day and what needs to be done. I also write my plan/list in order of most important first....does it have a dead line?? Prioritise things depending on their urgency.
Planning in the blogging world is important when it comes to picture taking time. I'm all for natural lighting photography. Take your pictures or film your YouTube video during the day... Edit and write blog posts in the evenings???
Make Achievable Lists And Be Realistic
The age old saying 'Rome was not made in a day' comes into play here. You can only plan so much as some things in life take time and money. You are not superwoman... You are only human and don't be so hard on yourself. There is always tomorrow! :-)

It is the same with the dreaded scales. You only lost 1lb or you remained the same.... So you feel a failure??? That cookie ain't going to help you - it's your enemy! Things take time it will not happen over night. Miracles are rare. You cannot make changes if you stop can you? No one can make changes in your life except for you? If you have a dream, go grab that dream. We only live once... Lets make it a good one.
What DO You Love??
Don't follow the herd, be yourself. If you are a beauty blogger and you love to write about nail polish and nail art.... Why try and review the latest lipstick?? Is it because everyone one else is??? Be yourself and write about what you love. This blog itself used to be beauty beauty and yet more beauty. Then I changed with time and age. Yes I still write about beauty but I also chuck in a few posts here and there about fitness, food and life. You don't have to stick to one subject. Just be you... Hopefully your readers will love it!!
