If you have not yet started your blog, this is the best time for this new project! While the pandemic and the lockdown might have stopped us from meeting friends or keeping up our fitness routines, it also blessed us with enough free time to dedicate ourselves to something new. A blog is inexpensive to start and maintain but can open the way to several future possibilities, allow you to learn new skills, and even help you shape your career. Best of all, it is a personal, unique platform to share your story and experiences.

Pass on your wisdom
Have you ever looked up at big blogs and websites that they have endless expertise to offer? It is the same in your case! You only need to figure out what you are expert in and how to word your wisdom correctly. Fighting the imposter syndrome is a battle that many first-time bloggers and entrepreneurs face. However, keep in mind that your experiences and skills are unique to yourself, and many others can benefit from it.
Starting a blog allows you to get your story out there, without having to ask the approval of editors and publishers. Therefore, you will be able to reduce the pressure that you might feel while writing and reach out to a broader audience.
Overcome fears
Feeling fearsome when it comes down to starting something you are not an expert in is entirely reasonable. However, what is best to boost your motivation than taking up a challenge? Starting a blog might require you to explore subjects you usually prefer to ignore, having to network or pitch your ideas to others. Depending on how confident, introvert, or extrovert you are, these can seem easy tasks or difficult obstacles to overcome. In any case, driving and improving your blog can teach you a lot about your personality and skills.
Improve your finances
The lockdown might not have been beneficial to anybody’s finances. However, your spirit and attitude can make a difference in what you will see at the end of this period of uncertainty. Starting an online business or blog can be an excellent way to explore future possibilities and new career options. In some cases, blogging itself can be extremely profitable, especially if done well and with a precise strategy in mind. However, if your primary objective is to tell a story, you can still use it in the future to promote a new project.
Learn new skills
No matter whether you are already a digital nomad or you are not so tech-savvy yet, starting a blog represents a steep learning curve for anybody. Embracing this, and the fact that it will take time to see the first results, allow you to take this journey a step at a time. You are likely to face challenges such as learning how to design in WordPress, craft content, or make the most out of SEO practices. But remember that help is available online, whether to find the best VPS server or to design an efficient backlink strategy.
