Great Wall of China by Steve Webel

To be a successful blogger is same as starting a small business, when you try to start a business there are many obstacle that you must overcome before succeed. Same goes here in blogging, because there are some obstacle that can stop you from creating successful blog. Below I just listed 5 of the obstacle in blogging that maybe you already experience.

1- Sickness.
This is the main obstacles and problem that will stop you to perform best in your blog writing. Sickness can’t easily stopped you from creating a good article, update your blog, make you take a whole week holiday, can’t opened your computer and can’t answer any email you received. So far sickness is the main obstacles in blogging I think.

But surely you don’t want to get sick because you stress to much on blogging and writing, your health is more important than your blogging activities. Since I’m working and also blogging, I do both works in the right way, I never stress out my self just to create a daily posting schedule. But if I had the time sure I will make at least one post a day.

2- Laziness.
Most people are lazy, sometimes I also feel the same. When you’re lazy there is no cure except you overcome it yourself. Laziness will keep you away from updating your blog for a long time. If there is no blog updating, you can’t stop call it a blog. But if you put greater effort into your blog sure will earn greater rewards than before.

3- Vocabulary, Language.
This is very common problem to non English blogger and especially newbie. The problem such as does not have the right words to write, jargon words are too hard to explain. All the blogging terminology is sucks when you don’t know it. This is the main problem - I know it since I’m a Malaysian blogger that I don’t speak English in my daily activities. When it comes to write, I must use simple words to explain all the things. That not good because in certain situation I must create a long article to deliver the message to the audience. But when I don’t have a right words and vocabulary I just use the simple word that maybe don’t deliver the messages clearly enough.

4- Confusion.
This is other problem - confusion involved too many answer, which one to believe, where all the different answer being a conflicting arguments. When I write, there are hundred of blogging tips - which one I should use. Newbie’s will had a confusion in this main areas - which topic should I choose and what better for me. I think the best way to overcome confusion is by asking yourself why your start blogging firstly. If you get the answer just stick to that answer. To be a successful long term blogger, you should blog the things that you really know much, better way is to avoid confusion.

5- Time.
Question - How much time and energy should I put into my blog before I get the results that I want - traffics, reader, money etc. Actually it takes some times before you get certain results with your blog, and it’s all depending on your time and energy that you give before. Sometimes it requires a greater time and energy to create a good blog before you get the results that you want.

Obstacle in blogging, how you overcome it.
Actually all blogger had their own blogging obstacles - big or not it all depend. Did you ever have your own blogging obstacles and how you overcome it? There are other greater reasons that can be an obstacle in your blogging journey. The different is how you overcome it. If you can overcome these early obstacles, you’ll likely be rewarded with many opportunities - traffics, money and also reader easily.

I also had my own reason that make me stop updating my blog for almost a month, but now I already overcome it.
