The Most Often Asked Question

The Most Often Asked Question

The most often asked question I get is "What Do You Blog About?"

In the last several weeks of being an active blogger I have written on a variety of subjects.  Some of the blogs are short.  Some are lengthy.

Some of the ideas came from experiences I had during the day.

Some came from reflections of my life.

Others were inspired "on location."  Just by being in downtown Memphis was inspiring, so I wrote 2 blogs and made 2 videos. One was about Foundations and one was about Groove.

One of the 8 Core Commitments we keep in Empower Network is to blog daily.  Somedays I've not been faithful.  Other days I've posted 3 or more blogs.

But what if I'm not inspired?  Or better yet, what if I'm asked The Most Often Asked Question?

What do you blog about?

Here are a few things you can use as idea starters, especially if you are new to blogging or you've hit a plateau.

Use these ideas to jump start your blogging today!

• Series - Pick a topic and do a series of articles or blogs on the same subject.  I was writing about the trouble I had with my vocal cords.  It was so long that I decided to turn it into Part 1 and Part 2.  You can find them here: Pt1      Pt2

• Theme - Pick one of your favorite themes such Working From Home, Mother and Children, Love, Religion.  I recently wrote about Weird Songs.  Being a musician and songwriter I was able to blog about the funny, strange, and weird songs and song titles that have been penned.

• Top Ten - I used to love to stay up and watch David Letterman do his Top Ten every night. He always had fun.  Many times he would have famous people do cameos and be part of the Top Ten.  Don't limit it to Ten.  How about The Top 5 Places to Eat in OKC.  Or The Top 6 places to visit on Route 66.  I wrote a blog on a Top Ten theme.

• Hobby- What are you good at?  Can you blog about sewing or other craft that you might love?  Write a blog or make a video on "How To".  People are always intrigued by how things are made, created, and maintained.

• Passion - What is your Passion?  Do you love to teach?  Do you desire to see other people helped?  Do you want to clean up the environment?  Do you want to help the homeless or feed the needy?  You can easily write about what inspires you.  What makes you tick?  What gives you the greatest fulfillment in life?

 

 I hope this blog has been helpful.  It has helped me as I have tried to answer The Most Often Asked Question?
