The Reasons Behind Our Motivation to Blog

I am going to be honest right now. After blogging for well over 2 years it is time to express my feelings in regards to my motivation. My main motivation is financial but I am also motivated because of altruism. I love to help people and I am confident that people will learn a lot from my blogs, just as I have learned from other people’s blogs.

I am confident that people will learn from my blogs because I am a fairly good writer. I wrote several successful eBooks and I know how to write with meaning. I am also aware of the fact that a lot of people from the developing world do not have enough financial resources to access quality literature and for a lot of these people blogging represents a good alternative to literature.

Every person has a deep motivation for doing something and motivation is the key behind any sort of action. In some days I am motivated because I want to help people, on other days I am motivated because I need money. Some days I wake up and I just feel this huge creative urge to write. The creative feeling is powerful and it is hard to stop if you get into it real deep. You can never stop from being creative if you do creative things every day because creativity starts to become a part of your identity.

All in all, blogging has a plethora of motivations but the end result is that blogging has helped a lot of people in many ways. Without blogging we would not have access to free information and I do believe that blogging is a essential part of the modern world wide web. Without blogging platforms the world would not be as rich as it is today because blogging enriches our lives every single day in ways that we cannot yet fully comprehend.

    • My motivation is to connect to the world at large. As a kid I always wanted penfriends but did not succeed much and here I have the world at my feet. I get to interact with so many who share my interests. Whatever money I get writing is a pittance but serves as an incentive to blog.

    • Motivation source is ideas latest and old and the writer must know how to mix them for a new creation for any blog post. If you are not full of ideas you cannot write a better blog post.

      In the search for story-worthy ideas, most writers are sidelined by occasional bouts of creative myopia. When it sets in—when your field of inspiration narrows—it’s easy to convince yourself that your luck has run out and all the good ideas are taken. But finding exceptional writing ideas isn’t a matter of luck. Waiting passively for creativity to strike won’t put words on the page, either. The secret to cultivating writing inspiration is to go out and hunt it down—in unexpected places.

      “Curiosity, attention, a little bravado, and a willingness to break routines lead to great writing ideas,” says writing coach Don Fry. “You lurk, listen, ask questions, and find experts. You can prowl the Internet, but the best writing ideas come from face to face interaction with people.”

      If something bothers or puzzles you, find out why by interviewing people with similar reactions. You’ll discover you’re not alone in never changing your passwords, buying lottery tickets, or your fear of high bridges. I’ve always wondered if my parents are really my parents, which turns out to be a fairly common doubt.

      Take alternate routes to your normal destinations, and try out different types of transportation, especially slower ones that let you see more. Leave your car at home and walk to work, or ride a bike. Climb stairs instead of taking elevators, take the service elevator, or enter through back doors.

      Role-play the lives of people with viewpoints different from yours or your readers’. I once spent half a day in a wheelchair and learned about hazards I never imagined. Bob Graham, the former governor of Florida, did manual labor one day a month to understand the public.

      All of these writing techniques jar you out of your normal vision, because that’s where the writing ideas are, invisible in plain sight.”
