Mindset of a Successful Blogger

To become successful, no matter what it is you choose to do in business, one must have the mindset of a successful person.  Negative habits breed negative consequences while successful habits create successful consequences.  So simply put, you can turn negative consequences into positive rewards by changing your habits today!

Following is a list of specific habits of successful bloggers

• Highly successful bloggers take 100% responsibility for their actions

This means they are intensely goal oriented, develop a specific plan, and focus on outcomes. They do not get distracted by trivia. They plan their work and work their plan.

• Highly successful Bloggers are Determined and Persistent

They do not take “no” personally nor do they allow it to make them feel like a failure. No matter how tempted they are to give up, they persist toward their goals. Self-discipline is a key factor in their success. They act with urgency in everything they do. They maintain a positive attitude and always stay “up” even when the chips are down.

• Highly successful Bloggers always act on purpose

Every act they do is conducted for a reason. They know their intended outcome and their fallback positions. They anticipate their customers needs and concerns. They think ahead so they can respond appropriately.

• Highly successful Bloggers are fanatics about managing and guarding their time  

They understand the difference between Urgent and Important. They recognize that “urgent” is somebody else’s priority thrust upon them. They treat other people’s time with respect. They are always on time for appointments. They have a schedule, they work to that schedule and they know if something is not on that schedule it does not get done.

• Highly successful people have the courage to do what they don’t like to do especially on the days they do not want to do it

They are pro-active, especially when things are slow. Instead of moaning and complaining, they get to work.

• Highly successful Bloggers invest years of hard work

They are always learning and practicing. They know where to find answers. They know what to say and how to say it.

• Highly successful Bloggers surround themselves with winners and a winning environment.

They want and need to be around people dedicated to be the best they can be. They understand there are no shortcuts. They understand that to be successful it takes focus, consistency and commitment on the part of the people who surround them.

You first form your habits, then your habits form you. Everyday you live, you are in the process of becoming – becoming worse or becoming better.  It is your choice!

 If you make it your goal to incorporate the mindset of a successful person, it will not take long before you begin to see positive results in yourself.  Don’t wait to be inspired.  You cannot get much done in life if you only work on the days when you feel like it.

To change your life you have to change something you do daily.  What changes will you make today to make this your best week ever? Take small steps daily, not giant steps occasionally to reach your goals.

If you want the mindset of a successful Blogger, set goals based on the above habits and post them where you will see them daily.  At the end of each week, review your goals and what you will need to do the following week. Hold yourself accountable and you will develop the mindset of a successful Blogger
