I know sometimes we want things to go fast, but that's not how it works.⁠
⁠
I expected my business to be way bigger after running it for two years. It's not. And that's okay. (I do have to remind myself that on a daily basis, trust me it's hard, ha!)⁠
⁠
It takes so much time and work to grow a business or a blog. Some people can make their blogs profitable in under a year. I haven't found that to be the majority of people.⁠
⁠
I've learned from experience that it takes something around two years to get any kind of traction, and another two to hit the really awesome goals you had for yourself.⁠
⁠
Unfortunately, running your own business isn't easy! It takes a lot of blind faith that you can figure it all out.⁠
⁠
So I'm with you if you feel like you're constantly jumping over cliffs, not really sure what's on the other side. You're not alone.⁠

At the beginning of your blogging journey, I don't

At the beginning of your blogging journey, I don't recommend limiting yourself.⁠
⁠
Some people will recommend you pick a niche right away and stick with it, but I believe a little experimentation is always good when you get started.⁠
⁠
Since you don't have it all figured out anyway, why pretend you do? Now it the best time to make mistakes, while not too many people are looking.⁠
⁠
So try posts that don't fit your niche! What kind of feedback are you getting?⁠
⁠
Do what you love, even if it means it's a bit out of the box. People will be attracted to that way more than if you do the same thing as everyone else.⁠
⁠
Passion is noticeable. Trust me!⁠

If you're new to this blogging journey, I want to

If you're new to this blogging journey, I want to remind you of something this morning: you don't need to have it all figured out to get started.⁠
⁠
It's fine if you don't know what your niche is. It's fine if your theme is not perfect. It's fine if your blog posts aren't optimized.⁠
⁠
You can always fix those things down the line.⁠
⁠
Just get started and write a post! You won't get where you want to be by trying to be perfect. You'll get there by taking imperfect action.⁠
⁠
And believe me, I don't have it all figured out either. (Want to know a secret? Nobody does! 😉 )⁠
