What You Will Gain From Having A Blog by Aphatech: 11:25am On Jun 28, 2016
If you own a blog, take your time to read this and check if u have gain these from your blog.

Also, If you are really looking to to setting up a blog, you should take your time to read this to the end.

How Blogging Impacts Life

1. You’ll become a better writer.
At its core, writing is communication. It is about recording thoughts on paper and compelling others to agree with them. To that end, writing (just like every other form of communication that has ever existed) improves with practice.

Blogging will not force you to become a better writer, it’ll just happen as you do it. And becoming a better writer holds important benefits for the rest of your life—whether you are creating a book, a presentation, a résumé, or an anniversary card for your spouse.

2. You’ll become a better thinker.
Because the process of writing includes recording thoughts on paper, the blogging process encourages you to stop and think deeper.

You will delve deeper into the matters of your life and the worldview that shapes them.

Unfortunately, at this point, many will choose not to blog (or write at all) based on the faulty reasoning that they “have nothing to say.” But to that line of thinking I always respond the same way, maybe you just haven’t discovered yet what you have to say.

3. You’ll live a more intentional life.
Once you start writing about your life and the thoughts that shape it, you’ll begin thinking more intentionally about who you are, who you are becoming, and whether you like what you see or not. And that just may be reason enough to get started.

4. You’ll develop an eye for meaningful things.
By necessity, blogging requires a filter. It’s simply not possible to write about every event, every thought, and every happening in your life. Instead, blogging is a never-ending process of choosing to articulate the most meaningful events and the most important thoughts. This process of choice helps you develop an eye for meaningful things. And remember that sometimes the most meaningful things appear in the most mundane—but you’ll see what I mean once you get started.

5. It’ll lead to healthier life habits.
Blogging requires time, devotion, commitment, and discipline. And just to be clear, those are all good things to embrace – they will help you get the most out of your days and life. Since beginning to blog, I have become an early riser, a runner, a fun filled person And even if those three habits don’t personally appeal to you, blogging will provide opportunity for new life habits to emerge in yours.

6. You’ll meet new people.
Whether it be through comments, e-mails, or social media, you may be surprised at how quickly you meet people on-line. And by meeting people, I mean legitimately form relationships that seek to serve one another. The blogging community is friendly, encouraging, and genuinely cheering for you to succeed— the only thing missing is you.

7. You’ll make some money.
You don’t need to make money to enjoy blogging. In fact, sometimes making money from your blog can actually start to distract you from the joy that you found in the first place. That being said, whether you make 1,000Naira/year or 200,000Naira/year, it’s still pretty nice to have a hobby that actually pays you back.

8. You’ll inspire others.
Blogging not only changes your life, it also changes the life of the reader. And because blogs are free for the audience and open to the public, on many levels, it is an act of giving. It is a selfless act of service to invest your time, energy, and worldview into a piece of writing and then offer it free to anybody who wants to read it.

Others will find inspiration in your writing… and that’s a wonderful feeling.

9. You’ll become more well-rounded in your mindset.
After all, blogging is an exercise in give-and-take. One of the greatest differences between blogging and traditional publishing is the opportunity for readers to offer input. As the blog’s writer, you introduce a topic that you feel is significant and meaningful. You take time to lay out a subject in the minds of your readers and offer your thoughts on the topic. Then, the readers get to respond. And often times, their responses in the comment section challenge us to take a new, fresh look at the very topic we thought was so important in the first place.

Re: What You Will Gain From Having A Blog by YoursGEJ(m): 1:49pm On Jun 28, 2016
Seems like everyone in Nigeria wants to be a blogger these days. Some of them cannot even write decent English not to talk of good English. Most people just steal news articles from other bloggers or websites like nairaland and don't even give credit to the original writer of the article. Blogging is writing about your own unique experiences and outlook on life. It's not copying other people's work and pasting them on your blog while hoping that your adsense account grows. If that's what LIB was doing, she would not have gotten to where she is today
