5 Reasons Why You Must Always Write To Please Yourself

As a blogger, it is imperative that you write to please yourself.

You are probably thinking, “Renard, the blogging gurus have stated that we need to write for an audience and now you are telling me that I must always write to please myself.”

I know that the advice that I am giving you here goes against the proverbial grain.

Okay, I will admit that it may sound a bit crazy; especially if you are a well-experienced blogger.

However, I want you to bear with me for a bit because I am going to provide you with some plausible reasons why you should always write to please yourself (So, read on my friend; I can assure you that it is worth your time).

1.) You Attract The Right Audience By Writing To Please Yourself

Yes, my friend, it is true that you will attract the right audience by simply writing to please yourself.

And, how in God’s/Goddess’s name is that so?

It is so because when you write to please yourself and publish it afterwards on your blog, you will attract those who resonate with your message; for example, if you are into things health-related and you publish health-related blog posts on your blog, you will attract an audience that is into health-related blog posts.

The approach is simple, yet effective!

2.) You Will Not Feel Like A Pretender

Unfortunately, many bloggers have chosen niches that they are not really interested in (They only chose them because they were popular).

For the record, it is okay for you to choose a popular niche once you are genuinely interested in it and you possess a genuine love for it.

People who venture into niches and topics that they genuinely do not give a damn about will eventually find themselves hitting a psychological roadblock (There will come a time when they will tell themselves, “I cannot do this any longer,” throw in the figurative towel and give up on blogging).

Also, blogging about the things that are of genuine interest to you is being authentic (And, when you are being authentic, it would be difficult for you to feel like a pretender).

So, in this case, you are way better off writing to please yourself.

3.) You Would Be Most Eager To Write

If you have adopted the approach of always writing to please yourself, you will be most eager to write (After all, you will be doing things on your terms).

Also, when the time comes around to write a new blog post, you are not going to say to yourself, “Damn, is it that time again?”

Instead, you will happily put that blog post of yours together without any complaint.

4.) Your Blog Would Be Filled With New Blog Posts For A Very Long Time To Come

Provided that you are not murdered by someone, or you lose your life through being a victim of an accident or die from a natural cause, your blog will be filled with new blog posts for a very long time to come.

Yes, once you are alive and you still have the zeal for blogging, you will continue to fill it with the type of blog posts that you love.

And, it all began with you being brave enough to write to please yourself.

5.) You Will Feel A Sense Of Satisfaction

If you have been writing to please yourself and publishing those blog posts afterwards on your blog, you will feel a sense of satisfaction.

You will look back and think to yourself that writing to please yourself was the best decision that you ever made.

And, which blogger do you know that does not want to feel satisfied in the end?

• You attracting the right audience.
• You not feeling like a pretender.
• You being most eager to write.
