Keeping Commitments Is Important To Your Blog and To Your Business

It is almost 1 AM today and I am tired like a dead wood (If there is such an expression). It is a cold night and everyone around seemed to have retired to bed. But I am trying to keep a commitment with my blog and you my readers.

I had a very hectic day. I operated on a trauma case today and the outpatient was full after that. I was exhausted by the time I reached home.

I was so tempted to skip everything today. But good sense prevailed and here I am writing again.

Remember, I talked about writing content in advance.

I am implementing the plan from next year, January 1, 2010.

I have started writing the content  and first 10 days of January are ready to go. I will apprise you as the task finishes.

Every new task brings a new commitment. When you start a blog, you enter into a commitment that you would write with such a such regularity.

If you honor that commitment, you are investing into two things. You are building a blog and a habit.

It is important to build habit becasue the system that you would devise for your business would emanate from you habits.

Thus, it is important to build good habits.

Moment I decided that I would write future content, I have another commitment to keep. In addition to daily writing I also have to write for the future content till I complete the advance content target.

Right now I am writing 2 articles per day and future content is stamped from Jan 2010 onwards. It is a good experiment and I am excited about it.

After I have ready to  publish content for three months at a stretch, I will not be forced to write daily. Instead I can work more blog promotions. I need to write to fill the gap but I can write 2 articles per alternate day without getting jittery and putting myself into rush.

Though I would still like to write daily but compulsions will not be there.

Then I can enter into new commitments of business.

Managing your blog while you are on job can be tough on you, your schedule and your family. I know because I face them daily.

It is easy to give an excuse and shut down computer and postpone the writing for tomorrow.

But when you do this, you are at danger of building a counterproductive habit.

As keeping your commitments is also a habit, you can build that by starting with simple tasks.

Start with one  and as you are comfortable doing that, slowly add others one by one.

That way, you are going to build a blog which would grow and evolve into business system.
