Happy 5 Year Blogiversary!
I am so excited! I mean 5 whole years of blogging at City of Creative Dreams and creating this wonderful brand of mine. It was hard work but completely worth every minute, every year and every creation. I would like to take a moment like I always do each year to just reflect.
Take a moment in this to celebrate and to really think about all that I have done this year. Time can just fly by and I think doing a blog post like this can really humble me and give me this memory. It is good to give yourself a pat on the back at times.
5 Year Blogiversary – Blogging Tips, Blogging Mistakes and Blogging Ideas
To be honest, I don’t give myself a pat on the back at times. It is really hard for me to do so. I am in creation mode all the time, thinking about new ways to help you (my readers) and to help me too as well. I am too sure if you noticed but I made a big change to the way this site looks in celebration of this occasion. I hope that you check it out after you read this.
THINGS I LEARNED:
BLOGGING TIPS/ BLOGGING MISTAKES
1. Put in the Work! – Last year I talked about investing in blogging courses. I not only did one course, I decided to take three courses. Yes, I think I am insane to do so as well but I knew that I had a thirst to get as much information as possible from big players out there doing the very thing I inspire to do. In order to do so, it requires putting in the work. You can sign up for a course but without putting the information you learn into action, you get nowhere.
2. Grow! – With the blog courses in my back pocket, I am all geared to grow this blog of mine even further. This is year five so this is the kick-off year for me to get these changes in order and to really expand. Not just say it or mean it but do it. Change is scary but I know it will help me get to my goals and dreams.
3. Do the Scary! – One of my problems is that I am too nice. Sounds funny to be saying that but it is the truth. I want to make everything happy which has come to the point where I have been pushed aside. I have to do the scary thing of not being overly nice all the time but have to say no to people at times. Remember that it is okay to say no. No one always gets their way.
GOALS:
Dream – My goal dream for this next year is to launch a course. I know that I have mentioned this last year, however, this time, I am excited to announce that a course is in the works. Yes! It just has a few more things to do before the official launch. So, keep an eye out.
New – Trying something new can be scary at times even for me. Especially, if it is something that is outside of my comfort zone or not on a list of dreams I want to try. I have to say that this year I would like to create more videos. Saying it freaks me out but I want to challenge myself to expand and grow. Not only for myself but for my readers too.
BEST BLOG DAY:
Today! Launching this new landing page and creating this fresh but simple atmosphere for my readers is so exciting. I am really putting the work into making your experience better and simpler. Not only that, I created an eBook (my very first eBook) that I think you would really enjoy. Check it out! It is FREE so there is no excuse to not read it. Plus, you get the bonus of getting help to declutter your home and a sweet checklist added to it as well is also very kind! My gift to you!
WORST BLOG DAY:
Okay, so in creating this awesome new site. I had a few bumps in the road. There have been moments when I have deleted things by accident. Any time my site suddenly stops working because I touched a button is instantly a bad day for me. I know all too well about having to figure out what I did and staying up all night to Google how to fix it.
Other than that, I think I have been doing pretty well. Save, save and save things all the time. Save even when you saved already is my tip!
You Rock! Thank You!
Thank you, everyone! To all the readers that have been there from the beginning and the ones that are just starting right now. I thank you! It is true when I say that this site is not only for myself, it is for you too! I say it because I believe it.
Thank you for hanging out with me, seeing my creations and reading my articles.
Like you, I am always learning and always growing. I fall and get up and fall again just to get up again. All in the hopes to live a better life. I hope you continue to share in this journey with me. Until next year, creative dreamers!
