Writing blog posts are a lot more stressful than many people think! In order to get from A to B several processes are involved and each are as important as the next.
Firstly inspiration is hard to find, especially if school or work is in the way!!! Anyway....like I was saying INSPIRATION! If you are lucky enough for it to suddenly appear then you have been blessed. However if you are not finding any inspiration I will explain how achieve it.
First let's understand (scientifically) what is inspiration?. Firstly the moments when you are most likely to feel that "EUREKA" moment is when you are relaxed, groggy or even a little intoxicated. This is because of neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is derived from the terms "Neuron" and "Plastic". A "neuron" is a specialized cell transmitting nerve impulses. "Plastic" means to mold or shape. Therefore Neuroplasticity refers to the potential the brain has to reorganise by creating new neural pathways to adapt, as it needs. When you get that sudden inspiration, your brain is actually restructuring itself to allow new processes. The more plastic your brain the more creative or inspirational thought you will have
So how can I make my brain more plastic?
Thanks to http://lifehacker.com here are some helpful tips:
1) Exercise
2)Read
3)Meditate
4)Play video games
All these things have one thing in common, they challenge the brain. How will your brain create new pathways if you aren't doing anything new. But the brain can also get tired! It's a muscle and like any other muscle it gets tired so remember to always take breaks. This will increase how efficiently your brain will work.
So how do you create a blog post?
Step 1) Research a wide range of topics until inspiration kicks in
Step 2) After a specific topic is chosen research on that topic and write key findings
Step 3) Start writing
Step 4) Review
Step 5) Format add pictures
Step 6) Publish
This process may take 2 days or even a whole week! If you love what you are writing about and find the research interesting then it becomes really fun :D
