The Emotional Blogger
Uninspired, tired, burn out and boring. Those are the words to describe the emotional blogger. What is an emotional blogger and how can you avoid becoming one?
What is an emotional blogger?
The term doesn’t apply to someone that lets their emotions and personality seep into their blog and its articles. We’ve learned that having a personality and letting it show, is a key to not only writing a successful article, but also having a successful blog.
The term applies, in contrast, to someone who doesn’t think or plan before starting a blog. This person reads blogs like this one and others and decides on a whim to start a blog of their own.
Now, we love the idea that you’re so inspired by our articles and others that you would like to start your own blog. In fact, it’s one of the reasons we’re here. The idea that we’ve helped you overcome your blogging fear makes us very happy. However, it would make us even happier if you do it right.
Blogging isn’t always easy. There are going to be days where you feel like the picture above. If you want to have a successful blog, you need to invest time and maybe even money. Even if you’re being paid for writing on a blog, it takes time to think of ideas and let them marinate.
However, how can you avoid being an emotional blogger? By planning well the launch of your blog. How can you orchestrate a successful launch? The answer to that is coming soon.

Wow, excellent thought, Tim! I agree with how you’ve talked about the balance. Being emotional now and then can be good, but who is going to hang around a blog that always reflects a “needy” blogger?
Before starting a blog, there are a lot of decisions one has to make. And you are right that one shouldn’t simply jump into blogging after reading one or two articles. There are many blogs which have no content at all apart from two or three posts. Hope everyone reads this post before jumping into blogging
Thanks for your comment. I would definitely agree with your points. We’ll be talking more about this in future posts.
