I spent about 3 hours blogging so far today. Time check? 12:35 PM. Fun day. Busy day.
I treat blogging like a business because you need to treat blogging like a business, an actual job, where you work 3 to 8 hours or more daily, to become a pro, full time blogger.
Perhaps you work a full time job; devote 3 hours daily to blogging. But if you do not work full time, spend 4 hours or more daily blogging. Preferably, 8 hours or more.
Why?
Blogging gives you what you give blogging. See blogging like a mirror; blogging reflects back to you what you give to blogging. Imagine this mirror effect reflecting back to you success or failure.
What does the reflection mirror? Your:
- attention
- energy
- time commitment
- predominant vibe

See what I mean? The cyber grass never grows green under his feet; he hustles! THAT is the specific, exact type of fun and enthusiasm you need to have for blogging to treat it like a serious business, to give thousands and thousands of hours to blogging, so eventually, blogging becomes a full time business for you. No way around that one.
Blogging: No Passing Hobby
Oodles of bloggers tell me they will give blogging a chance, or, they will get around to blogging, or, they need to get serious about blogging. None of these folks even treat blogging like a passing hobby.
Flat out, they do not care at all about blogging because they see blogging as a passing thought, an idea they may get around too, like burying some puzzle in your closet, that you will get around to, maybe 6 months down the road, on a rainy day.
Can you see why you struggle? You never give any genuine, generous attention and energy to blogging. Blogging mirrors back to you the attention, energy and work you put into blogging. Do you desire tasting sweet, freeing blogging success?
Give much of your life to blogging. Totally worth it! I have worked every day for the past 5 years. Fun times, and yep, challenging and scary at times, too. I committed fully to blogging so blogging committed fully to me, allowing me to circle the globe for the past 8 years of my life.
