How To Build Your Personal Brand On Steemit Without Burning Yoursel...

If you’ve tried (and failed) at keeping a posting schedule, don’t feel bad.

Creating content, especially good content, is hard work. It takes a long time.

And you are not the only Fish in this Steemit Ocean facing this

And sometimes you don't see the rewards you feel your post deserves

So, how do some Steemians (like me :) )write five, or even seven articles every week?

You might think that we are blessed with some genius gene, or we are part of a secret Erudite clan

The truth is that every prolific writer you see is a normal person. What seperates them from the normal person is their habit.

Habits that have given them the ability to repeat a successful pattern everyday

So do you want to write five or more articles a week?

The truth is that constant content creation is the chief way of growing your Personal Brand on Steemit.

Content is like the gift that keeps on giving.

I decided to create an e-book of the #blockchain-blogger series and by the time I went through my old post I found out that i have amassed tons of valuable information over time.

If you successfully push yourself to produce content now, you’ll be reaping the rewards for months and even years to come.

This week alone I have picked a good number of followers because I started sharing my old Steemit post In WhatsApp groups.

The path to a strong personal brand is repeated content generation.

And in order to achieve this, you’ve got to learn to write more.

That brings me to the point of this post. I want to show you some of the method I use to produce content consistently.

And here’s the best part: you won’t burn out.

Burnout is a huge cause of failure. Remember, personal branding is a long term commitment.

Taking extended breaks after a few weeks of red hot intensity won't help your brand

Adhering to these tactics will enable write at least five posts a week without burning out

Create a goal

Obviously you have to set a goal for yourself. I talked about the Importance of a schedule in yesterday's post.

You may first set a goal of three or four posts a week, but the important thing is to set the goal

Esthablishing a vision of what you want to achieve will go a long way in helping you develop discipline for it.

The next thing you have to do is make the goal clear and become determined to achieve it

The next thing you have to do is spend time on that goal.

It is the time you spend working on that goal that enables you to achieve it.

Time is critical to your goal of success

The principle applies for every other goal.You must “get to work” and “stick to it,” which takes time.

Set aside time to write every day

This simply means Persistence. It may not be all that exciting but the more you do, the better you become.

Talent is not the major thing you need to succeed. The Major thing is Persistence

When you keep your commitment to write everyday, you will eventually reach the point where you will find writing five articles a week easy.

Writing in Mental training, the more you do it the stronger and better you become.

Create a deadline for yourself

Most people work better if they are working with a deadline.

Let's say a Teacher walks into a class and gives his Students a project to write and submit.

And when asked for the submission date he replies, "Oh, Whenever."

When will some students get that project done?

Maybe two days or a week or maybe a month.

The Teacher gave no deadline so his project will be shoved aside for other interests.

But if the Teacher tells them that he needs the project Submitted in two days time.

Hopefully they will all get it to him at that time

Many of us work better if we have a date and time by which we have to finish.

You can also apply the power of deadlines in your article writing.

Deadlines aren't a form of unusual punishment. They are a tool to help us achieve our goals.

Eliminate Distractions

Distraction-free writing is the only way to produce content quickly.

A single distraction can cost you some precious seconds or even minutes.

If you are constantly distracted while you write, you will never be able to produce content effectivey.

Distraction can jeopardize your productivity

So shut the door.Turn of your phone and Netflix, and tell people not to interrupt you

Write at the same time every day

When you create a daily routine, your brain get's used to It.

Training your brain to prepare for writing and engagement at a daily appointed time will help increase your writing speed.

It is known as muscle memory, and you can apply it in every other area of your life.

When it comes to this principle, Repetition is key

William Faulkner, a noted American author, is reported to have said,

I only write when inspiration strikes. Fortunately it strikes at nine every morning.

This also includes writing down thoughts and inspiration as soon as you get them.

A lot of time is wasted when you are racking your brain on ideas of what to write.

I have a special notebook for this, it is filled with little bits of inspiration and when I sit to write, I find them easy to flesh out.

Carrying around a notebook will actually do wonders for you, overtime you find yourself not lacking ideas of what to write about.

And this will only do you good if you write about what interests you.

I know nothing of Web designing so you won't see me jotting down the latest developments in Javascript os CSS.

You will have trouble going far if you go outside your field of interest.

It might be time to change your focus or to select topics that do interest you.

You may wander off now and then, but you must know what your primary interest is.

Another thing that can help You is Writing in the morning or anytime Your mind is the most energetic.

This will enable accomplish your writing goal in less time.

Conclusion

You can write better and faster. You can write five articles a week

And when you set the ball rolling you may not be able to stop.

In my early days, I was a fast reader but I found out that my writing was slow.

Today, writing comes easily to me and if not because of the attention span online, my articles would have been longer.

Writing content that helps others improve gives me joy, coupled with the fact that it is the best way to create a personal brand.

There is something energizing and fulfilling in producing content that helps people to improve. Plus, the benefits to my Personal Brand will convinced me that daily writing is the way to go.

What does your daily writing routine look? Do you aim to write a certain number of articles every week? Do you think that five a week is too high or too low?
