I’ve adapted some strategies I use to take my speaking presentations to the next level in order to tackle the question of how to battle against bloggers block. I’ve come up with 20+ short tips for you to use next time you get bloggers block.

Today, I want to introduce you to two bloggers, two tech bloggers. Both of whose blogs enabled them to leave their real world desk corporate jobs to start their own businesses around their blogs. Hear a little bit more about their blogging journey as they share:

• a mistake they made starting out
• something they’re grateful that they did
• a tip for new bloggers
• something good that’s happened since they started.

Back in November of 2002 when I first hit ‘publish’ on my original (and short lived) Blogspot Blog I did so believing that this ‘blogging thing’, which I’d only just heard of, would be a bit of fun. I started for a number of reasons but in short it was curiosity and the hope of a new hobby and perhaps some new connections that drew me to it. At the time I was working three jobs.

Over time, through hard work and discipline, using the techniques I’m going to share with you in these courses, my blogs have grown from a hobby (some would say an obsession), to a part-time, then a full-time job, all the way through to a fully fledged business employing a team of people.
