Problogger’s Efficient Post
For those of you that run, or those of you that blog, or those of you that run and blog, Darren over at Problogger had a post with a great analogy between running efficiently and blogging efficiently. He has recently been attending the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne Australia and noticed that some of the best sprinters glide effortlessly down the track easily beating competitors that push themselves to exhaustion.
For those of you who run and especially race you know the feeling when someone passes you with a smile on their face while you struggle with every stride. Annoying, isn’t it. If you’re like me you think the same thing when you visit a blogger who seemingly effortlessly posts massive amounts of useful content day in and day out.
Now some of these people, like Darren, blog for a living, and some those people, like Asafa Powell, run for a living. Keeping up with people who make their living at blogging is going to be tough. However, you can become better at posting by focusing on what makes posting easy and what allows you to write a lot. Mostly it’s going to be things you’re interested in. Try to have a plan and work towards. Like running it will take practice, you’ll need to practice a routine and focus on writing faster and better.
Of course, like running, blogging might not be for everyone but you can at least try for the “gold” and practice, practice, practice.
