Blogging is Not for everyone

 Blogging is Not for everyone

Good Morning everyone, Its Me Nj speaking, I know many people  understands the title of this Article, Which says,  that “ Blogging is not for everyone” Many people will agree with me on this, While many others would not! 

But its Ok, cos everyone is entitled to their opinions, But sometimes, its also good to make sure you already have an experience, relating to the topic at hand, Before giving your opinions about it, instead, its better to just keep quiet, and get to know why, the writer, feels that “Blogging isn't for everyone!”

my Name is Nj, i am a professional Blogger, a politician and also a Businessman, and i would love to tell you guys some of my life experience with some Upcoming Bloggers, or rather Wannabe bloggers, who thinks blogging is a get rich quick Job, which has also led them into jumping into the blog business, only to realize, that it isn't as easy or as juicy, as it appears in the public eye, believe me its always appear easier, fun and more pleasant to the readers, but I can't say the same about the blogger, whom also happens to be the writer.

Its always more stressful, more challenging and most times frustrating to a blogger who has to always make researches, learn a lot, and then Try as hard as possible to write an article about what they've learned so far, in order to keep their blogs alive, and also keep their readers Happy and engaged, and while they're at that, so him or her can also make some revenues of their Blog.

It's safe to say that the major aim of starting any business is to make money off it, to make a living off our work, that i believe, is one of the major aim, an individual will decide to start up a business, be it online or offline!

Many people or newbie Bloggers will argue what i just said, and say things like “No, making Money isn't my major purpose of writing or creating a blog” they will go ahead to claim, that they only decided to start up a blog due to their love for writing, or their love for Blogging!”

Well, As truth and as decent as that may sound, its all a Lie! 

Maybe some part of it might be the truth, (the part where they said they got love for writing, and Love to help people find solutions) those part might be true, but also, the part they failed to mention is part where, they should have mentioned that they also make good revenues and it pays their bills! 

Believe me, no one will dedicate their time and efforts to something they ain't benefiting from, the only time you see someone giving so much time and attention to something, its because they're benefiting something from it, something has to be beneficial to you, for you to want to dedicate your time to it! 

Or rather something has a Future benefits, for someone to want to invest their time efforts and money to it!

So this logic also applies to Blogging!

You dedicate your time, efforts and invest your money into starting up a blog, because you hope to benefit from it, and what other benefits are we talking about here, if not for money? That's right, Money! That's where all this things boils down to!

Blogging is a very difficult work, but it can also be fun and Enjoyable, when you know what you're doing, 

Don't just go into Blogging, because you want to make quick money, cos if, or when you do, you're going to be really disappointed!

I have heard many people who see me living luxuriously, with money I made from blogging, and all of a sudden, they also want to go into Blogging! Not knowing it really doesn't work that way!

This is not just me, i have also heard  other professional bloggers like me, tell similar stories of how people are always disturbing them, and telling them to introduce them into Blogging, so they can start making money!

But what they fail to understand, is that, Even tho blogging will give you good money, you will actually need to have dedicated lots of time, money and efforts, to be able to earn like most of we bloggers do

We didn't venture into Blogging today and all of a sudden, started earning big! No, whoever tells you so, is not telling you the truth, it actually tooks years of hard work, frustrations, dedications to get to where we are today in the blogging business,  i Started blogging since 2013! Till date! And believe me when i say it wasn't an easy journey to where i am today, there were days i felt like giving up, and venturing into else, i think at some point, i actually gave up a little, and went to try out something else, this was when  Google adsense didn't give me their approval, i felt like giving up, cos i wasn't making any revenue with my blog as at then.

But thank God, i never fully gave up, i was able to convince myself into coming back, renewing my domain and host then also getting a premium template! And decided to keep pushing, and today, I'm loving the results!

The results are what many people will see today and quickly make a decision of going into Blogging!

And when they actually do and don't get my kinda result in their first fee months or year of starting, the frustration sets in, and  they quickly give up, just like that their dream of being a blogger or rather, dream of making money off blogging, will be over!

Now Back to the story of some of my friends, who were aspiring to become Bloggers, so they could cash out big

Few years ago, a friend of mine, Ikechukwu Onuh, Who was an upcoming musical artist back then suddenly started showing interest on blogging, He would ask me some certain Blog relating questions, and i would answer them, without suspecting anything, This kept going on from time to time, until i became suspicious of his sudden developed interest on Blogging, 

So  I decided to find out why he has suddenly picked an interest on my business (Blog) 

Without a little hesitation from his side, he said “E belike i go Like start that your work O” (Its like i would Love to Venture into  your field of work)

I smirked, because i was surprised, and couldn't figure out what could have led an upcoming musical artist to suddenly become interested on Blogging, so I asked Ikechukwu, why he would want to venture into Blogging! 

He responded and said “Guy e be like na their money dey O, abi you no see as you dey shine dey fresh, you be big boy now, so me too go like Make am like you”

His respond actually got me laughing! In translation, what he was saying was (It looks like that blogging is were Money is RightNow, looked at how fresh and good you look, you're a rich guy now, and i would also love to be rich like you!)

I laughed, at his response, not because he was wrong, as a matter of fact, he wasn't completely wrong,  most of what he said was correct, Cos truly Blogging has changed my life for good, am fresher, more good looking and also rich, all thanks to the money i make from Blogging!

But the reason I laughed, was cos it wasn't as easy as it seem to him,  he was quick to see the success of my hard work, but didn't see my Hard works, so he probably thinks Making Money through blogging is a piece of Cake! 

That was why i laughed, because i knew, he was speaking from ignorance.
