Writers Block | What to do when writers block hits you like a ton of bricks.

What To Do To Help Writers Block

I have to admit, writing is not something that comes naturally to me.  When I first started blogging, I had a lot of doubt and uncertainty as to whether people would like or dislike what I wrote. After some time I realized that it didn’t matter.  Some people would like what I had to say and others might not.

A valuable lesson was learned at that moment in time.  I could not go through life trying to please everyone!

When I first got started marketing online, I wrote a whole bunch. I wrote tons of articles and blasted them all over the Internet.  Every once in a while I would get stuck on what to write about next.

5 Reasons Why Traditional Franchises Are Riskier Than an Internet Business

I thought about opening my own franchise or brick and mortar business years ago and decided against it for several reasons.  I lacked upfront capital, I Knew I needed working capital to get me through the first year of business and it was going to take a long time to get a return on my investment.  I knew that the business would run me rather than me running the business and I did not want to take the risk of changing market trends with that large of a financial investment.

How To Provide Value To The World Around You.

When I first got started in this industry nearly 6 years ago, I was with a very well known MLM company with over 1 million products and services offered.  I was taught to build a list of everyone I have ever known and to call those people utilizing my non-existent phone skills or a 3-way with my up line.

That phone weighed 100 pounds.  I was fearful of what my friends and family would think of me.  I had no success other than rising to the position of a GM in the hotel industry and didn’t think I would be taken seriously.

Needless to say, I sponsored 5 people out of a list of about 300 that I had put together.
