I know, I know sweetie, this question hunts us all when we are first starting out in the blogsphere.
It is a m.e.a.n question that we ask ourselves over and over again and every time it manages to make us feel smaller and smaller, isn’t it?
So, let’s get this sorted.
Getting straight to the point this is the truth:
Wherever you are choosing to write about it needs to be said by YOU.
One more time : Wherever you are choosing to write about it needs to be said by YOU.
In other words, YOU have been through your journey, you experienced your experiences and I can guarantee you are not alone.
Imagine yourself back in the days when you were in the transformational process how helpful would that be to find someone else that had gone through the same things.
You would love to find such writings! You’d read it and feel that sparkle inside knowing the light at the end of the tunnel is real and everything would be fine at some point, right?
Finding peeps that had walked the path we are venturing in makes us feel validated, supported and belonging.
Now, keeping that in mind my love, I can guarantee you that….
There ARE people out there that NEED to hear your story to soothe their fears.
Now let’s say you want to talk about things on your blog that aren’t so touchy, or not so focused in the inside – they are more practical and objective. A painting tutorial for instance.
Why would YOU talk about it if so many tutorials have been created already? {You secretly think before giving up writing such tutorial, dont’cha? 😀 }
I’ll tell my dear, you should write it EXACTLY because you are the one writing it.
The way YOU experience that process-making is unique to YOU and the way you present it will ring bells that no other tutorial was able to rang.
Peeps need your perspective on it!
I really want you to get that internalized ASAP. No more second guessing if what you have to say is relevant or not and no more posts vanished in the air because of that.
So here is a ‘lil reminder for you:
Get on moving with your thoughts, ideas and put them OUT THERE, mmmk? 🙂

Smooches,
Ahh words I like to hear. Everyone goes through the same things I do while blogging. Makes me feel much better. I just needed to hear it again.
yay Susan! Soooooo glad it ring bells! We all have those insecurities creeping in here and there. Always remember of your uniqueness and you are back on track. 😉
Thank you, Raine!! I totally needed to hear this. Uhm, read. Aaand… I’ll probably have to read it again and again and again before I finally muster the courage to put that blog out there – but you’ve helped getting there QUITE a bit with this lovely reminder. <3
