I’m on this platform for almost six months now, and until this point, I posted more or less in a chaotic way based on if I was in the mood to work or not but I think that has to be changed.
I’ve been thinking about a strategy that could benefit both, my blog and my actual writing skills for a long time and I think that now I’m ready to go for it.
I’m a chaotic person a lot of the times, that’s why I need more discipline, that’s why I need to take a commitment, that’s why I’m writing this post. My posts are not the fanciest nor my language since I’m a Romanian but to be able to speak my mind I don’t have to get all fancy.
If you’re using youtube you probably already stumbled upon Gary Vaynerchuck, I love the guy, and I think that what he’s sharing is of value. Even when I joined Steem, I got inspired by him to start my interview series, which I should work on again, and it turned out to be useful.
Gary is not fancy either, he’s just outworking everybody and that is a huge inspiration. In the beginning, I used to work even 10 hours on Steem but since then the number of invested hours lowered more and more due to this crazy thing called life.
What I focused most on was the community, making friends even if it was through comments or discord. I feel like I didn’t give enough attention to my blog in this time so I want to fix that.
I am going to post every day. It’s not going to be easy, but I will try to do it. My problem is that, for me, it’s harder to write in the working days and I’m usually writing my articles on the weekends. I will write more because I have ideas too and I will get a queue of posts ready for each week.
Here are some post series I’m going to work on.
The Sunday Purge started out of anger, on a Sunday, when I saw some spammers making more on posts than me and I decided to write about it.
Initially, it was only one post, but then one friend asked me if this is a new series of mine and that gave me the idea to continue it. Because the amount of interaction was overwhelming, I feel like it worths to share my views on the rotted part of Steem.
So, every Sunday I am going to post one Sunday Purge post where I will share my opinions on some Steem related issues and maybe even good parts until I don’t have anything else to share.
Photography
Photography is something that I like doing even if I’m not the best at it. I used to post one photo every day, but I realized that the quality of my pictures wasn’t always that best and some of them were bad.
I have taken pictures in a while, but I am going to start doing it soon again. The problem is that I hate the cold weather and outside are about 0 degrees or even less sometimes and I hate staying outside.
I will try to make a weekly photography post or something like that.
Writings
My writings are going to cover most of the week since I love doing them. So, I already have two days covered with photography and the Sunday Purge, so there are five more free days for my writings.
I’m usually writing about philosophy or my views on certain things, but I will try to post about lighter topics too.
Maybe once per week, I’ll post something different, but I’ll have to see since I haven’t posted like that before.
Conclusion
Well, this is pretty much it. I will try to post every day, at around 4 pm UTC, that’s my magic hour, more or less. Of course that I may not be able to do it every single day since sometimes life may get in my way but I will sure as hell try to stick to it.
Of course, I will also try to provide as much value as I can, and I have realized that lately, writing 500 words articles comes pretty easy. That’s what I consider a decent amount of words in a post since more may be too much for a reader.
Make sure to follow my progress.
