Have Fun Blogging About Self Improvement


By Ruth Carter


All of us have had life experiences. Some of these will have been triumphs, while others may have been the most ghastly mistakes. However, we have learned even from our mistakes. Passing this learning on is fun on many levels, and sending our thoughts out into cyberspace is liberating. It can also be helpful to others who need encouragement or comfort. Blogging about self improvement is satisfying and just might be a lifeline thrown out to a floundering soul.

Everyone likes to talk about themselves. It's a lot harder to get listeners than it is to choose topics to expound upon. With a blog, the fear of boring the listener is lessened, as is the risk of making embarrassing personal revelations. With only a virtual audience, it's easier to relate your own experiences and the things you've learned from them.

It is true that we don't understand ourselves as well as we may think we do. Sometimes writing our thoughts and deep feelings helps us come to a deeper knowledge of our motives, our execution, and our intentions for the future. If we want to improve ourselves, we need to evaluate the past and determine - with real zeal - to do things better the next time around.

It seems to be a human trait to enjoy telling others what to do. Few of us have family and friends who care to listen to us. Passing on the lessons we've learned- and how to avoid making the same mistakes we have - can really help others floundering through similar circumstances. We can point out warning signs and pitfalls that we now see with hindsight.

Further, we may be of real help to someone floundering out there in the ether. Our conclusions about love, family, living on a tight budget, succeeding in the workplace, or facing an uncertain future might be just the input someone else needs. Our reward will be the glow of doing a good deed and the satisfaction of touching another human being.

Think about the fun of telling how you coped with a new manager at work who came in like a bulldozer, disrupted the good old ways (that were working just fine, thank you), and didn't seem to appreciate your sterling qualities. You may have been the stone in the managerial shoes, or you may have quietly bided your time until the upstart came upset. Conversely, you may have realized that things would never be the same but a job is a job and done your best to adapt.

Don't work? Talk about how to save with coupons, grow superior tomatoes on a vertical support on your tiny balcony, teach your kid to read when the school system fails to, or teach yourself to touch type. Writing a blog is much better typing practice than doing those dumb exercises. When you can do 200 words a minute, you can get a medical transcript job and save for the vacation of your dreams.

Maybe you will become famous, if not rich, through blogging. Think of what could have been if Erma Bombeck had had a PC. Maybe you will build a following online that rivals the newspaper audience of Dear Abby. It's something to consider - and you 'can do it from the privacy of your own home'.
