Transcribe: I got an interesting question i begin a lot of emails about my blogging course if you haven't checked it out you might want to i'll put a link to it in the description but I have this free three-week blogging course it basically takes you through the whole process of creating a blog and becoming successful with it it's called out how to create a blog to boost your career like I said you can you follow the link there but basically I go through this whole process in three weeks of two lessons each week teaching you how to create a blog about I think around a thousand people have gone through it so far so it's been pretty successful but I've begin a lot of good questions so a lot of the questions will probably come from that that I'll be doing in the next few weeks here so got this question from taylor and taylor basically says this email blog course was really fun and I learned a lot not only did I learn about blogging and marketing myself I learned a lot about myself how I was nervous scared and shy about telling my story to the rest of the world now with two posts I'm not shy or nervous about telling my stories of the world okay well that's good that's you know that's what happened it's kind of weird and just to interject here that it doesn't seem like creating a blog and writing would be that intimidating but it is I mean doing video I'll tell you doing YouTube videos is probably the most intimidating people who can speak onstage when they first get in from the camera they freeze up and if you watch in my early youtube videos you probably will see that i did a little bit of you know acting and stuff earlier in my career so I was a little bit camera trained but anyway they definitely is good you know doing a blog post it's going to be nervous that you're going to be nervous at first but you get over it right so Taylor got over it but then he says you know he's got a new problem here he says I basically the only thing I get nervous about now is will I be able to get that post written and proof read and published by my deadline so in that blanket course I tell you to set a deadline of when you're going to commit to this right so good that he's done that and and basically he says I'm still reading your book I have a quite a bit of information to go over in marketing course so he's got them how to market yourself course as well things have been visiting him a terrible writer so it takes time to get post ready to publish so he's got a couple of questions here one says what do you won't do if you want to write a post about a certain topic but you came across that same topic being talked about let's say the topic is the same and the content would seem to be identical in HR like eighty to ninety five percent the same do you still write the post I don't want to sound as if I'm trying to plagiarize or steal their content so okay so Taylor you know the first thing i would say here is do not worry about this right and i'll give you a good example here if you go when you search on Google for some subject that you want to learn about right if you see five or six blog posts that essentially you know different variations of the same message that's a good thing right you're pretty happy about that because it means you're on the right track when you see just one blog post out there and you're like uh not sure if this if this is correct information or not it's a little bit harder to make your decision right I'll frequently do a search on some problem that I'm having and obviously you know a few different blog post and I'll read through all of them and each one is valuable especially if it reiterated some of the same stuff now I'm not saying God plagiarize it I'm not saying go and read these blog posts and and you know and just plagiarize them but what you might want to do this is actually a good strategy is to read some of the blog posts on the topic already and rephrase it make it simpler cover the things they didn't cover make it easier to read figure out what is wrong with their post and make yours better it's not plagiarizing you know it's it's it's a totally different thing you're just in creating something new creating something better for what was already out there and what was already popular I've done this with several of my blog post you really don't have to worry it's it's not like writing a book or writing a term paper you know this is your opinion and hey if you want to write a blog post about a subject that's already out there there are the world is so big go for it do not even worry one bit about this you know if you if you feel guilty if you feel like you did grab a lot of good information from another blog post cite them linked to them and say hey I got this from here just be honest and and you know no one is going to be upset about that so go for do not worry the second question you said is how many times do you proof read an article before publishing it.
I spent four hours proofreading my last post now granted three whole pomodori or spent on on a complete rewrite but I just don't have time to do that I need to learn other things get started on my next blog post yes granted the process you get easier as our write more but you have a system in place and how many times do you proofread a particular post before saying enough is enough I need to get this published or I'll be getting behind so Taylor again the this one you know it's don't worry too much about this right so there's there's a balance you up to strike here between being perfect right in and and shipping and you want to air toward shipping right you want to get your blog post out so what I personally do is I sort of shoot from the hip I right and I almost ship the first draft now I say almost here because I go through I read it once I make some changes I put some images in I bold things right and but mostly my textes right because I got to do this in order to produce every week the second thing I do is I ship it off to my wife my wife is the proofreader for all of my posts as she goes through she fixes grammar and errors and things like that and gives me some ideas a little bit of feedback but that's it then it ships I make the changes that she suggests and then I ship the thing and I get it out the door and that's critical because you really want to be able to get these posts out the door don't spend a ridiculous time proofreading you know don't ship junk right don't chip crap so just write some spelling error grammatical error piece of garbage that you haven't looked over at all but at the same time strike a balance and try to go for the eighty percent don't try to be perfect you can always change it later you know if if you air between the two things air to the site of shipping it's better to ship than it is to just you know try to make something perfect and never ship because action is what's going to get you there if you can consistently write blog posts that that's where you're going to be successful in anything really so air toward shipping you know do the minimal proofreading that you need to don't do all these crazy rewrites and stuff and you're right as you get better as a writer it's going to be simpler I wrote my whole soft skills book almost first draft it's kind of crazy I know but I've been writing so much alright so much every day that I can sort of ship my first draft now you know I really that some people might not like that or want to do that but anyway we will get better hope if this advice helps you I'm gonna have to cut this a little bit short because my camera battery I'm just watching it flash here as I'm talking alright that's it if you like this video please subscribe to the channel share it with your friends and then comment below if you've got a comment but if you do one thing subscribe to the channel all right take care talk to you next time.
