Upcoming Posts- Your Input

Unless you give me suggestions, what I plan to write about next in coming posts is:

* Community how-to: what I’ve learned about being in big crowds of people I want to know.

* Motivation to Action: how to take a good idea and make it a good practice.

* Inspiration in Blogging: how one keeps moving forward and posting passionately.

So, let me hear yours. Those are good. Do you have great ideas?

    Blogging is just like any commitment: it requires both discipline and love. So when I don’t love blogging, discipline get me through. And vice versa. It’s like making my bed: I do it every day even though I’m going to mess it up every night because I love the look of a freshly made bed and/or because I’m disciplined enough to do it every day.

    Moving forward is a bit different. For me, it means simply being open to change, to happenstance, to whatever is on the next page. I suppose that can be encapsulated in the word “willingness.”

    Anecdotally at PodCamp NYC: the open you are to the community, the more community things happen. Giving up “valuable real estate” at my sponsor booth to podsafe musicians for some lunchtime music was a bigger and better draw than anything else in that time slot, and they benefitted from the opportunity to sell CDs right on site. I’d do it again in a heartbeat, only maybe I’d buy a larger table or a room or something.

    Community WORKS.

    I’m curious why a lot of bloggers/vloggers have so many projects going on at the same time
    instead of one they have 3/4/5 etc seperate different vlogs/blogs
    doesn’t this water down the focus and quality of each one?
    or do they feed off one another thus creating more creativity?
    or is it a process of illimination? seeing which survives to sacrifice the others.

    I sometimes feel plenty *motivated* but need help with the first step. I often know how to do something, but get stuck in breaking the inertia. I guess this makes me a procrastinator.

    Looking forward to reading your thoughts over the next coupla days.

    Sometimes my blog acts as a micromovement: a tiny step in the right direction. Other parts of my life work that way, too, e.g. don’t want to contemplate weeding my entire garden so I pull weeds for a few minutes everytime I go there. Result: cutting quite a swath. 5 (or even less) to 15 minutes devoted to a project is a micromovement.
