Why Blogging Is Stupid




I noticed that writing about stuff that matters to me doesn't necessary interest people: no new readers/followers.

Writing about stuff that is shallow and/or is on every other blog: more readers/followers.

People like to read stuff that doesn't take much time... So I write short meaningless posts. This makes me think that I'm not proud of my blog. I start writing about stuff I think is important. NO READERS... 

How should I solve this problem? Maybe short AND meaningful posts... 


I have tons of ideas what i'd love to do on my blog. Ideas about the design etc. Unfortunately I can't make them happen, because I'm not a professional graphic designer. I just don't have the skills. Frustrating. 




I'm not going to lie, without this blog my master's thesis would probably be ready. If you want to have a pretty blog... a blog that you are proud of... or if you want to achieve your "blogging goals", you have to remember: it. takes. time.

Sometimes my blog is not good for me. I worry about it. I constantly think about statistics, topics... Then I have to take a step back and remind myself why I blog. I also want to remind you, my fellow blogger, don't live your life through your blog.

I also asked her opinion: why she hates blogging. Her answer:





I want to end this post with positive words: I love blogging and reading blogs! 

I would also love to hear your thoughts!
