Tag…Why do I Blog?
By karen | April 13, 2007
My good friend Alan from Madetobegreat.com has tagged me in another meme. This one originated at http://www.soloseo.com/why-blog-meme.html
It is similar to one that was going around a few months ago maybe it is the same one? I don’t know. But this meme asks the question “What are the top 5 reasons you blog?”
So why do I blog?
Good Question.
Let me think about this for a bit.
Well the first reason I blog must come down to why I started this blog in the first place. So this may come as a surprise to some people. My first reason why I blog is because
1. It seemed like the thing to do. I’m going to have to say that it was inspired action that I just followed through with. I started the Live the Power website and the cornerstone was the Live the Power presentation. I had been inspired to create the presentation and to give away the book “The Power of the Subconscious Mind”. I have given away many, many of these books now. It is one of my favorite books from all time and I am grateful that I have been able to share it. I had no preconceived intention of blogging. It was not part of any master plan. It was just the next step. It’s been a fun and wonderful experience though and I am very happy now with my blog.
2. I have a passion for writing. Sometimes I am writing and all the words flow and it is an absolute joy for me. This is one of my selfish reasons for blogging, because I Love it, I find Joy in it and it is fun for me.
3. I have a passion for my subject. Live the Power is about helping people find the power within themselves to create their best life. I feel a strong sense of purpose to help others create their best life. I have studied self-improvement, self-development, the Law of Attraction for many, many years. I have read all of the great books on the subject. I have learned and grown and I am passionate about the subjects I write about on my blog.
4. I had a strong intention to be able to give of myself and give my energy to the world as I started the Live the Power website. I wanted to be able to give and share and inspire other people. When I receive emails from people that say “Thank you” my heart sings. I would actually love to be able to make some money also to give back to myself and my family. I know that will come somehow and some way. The Law of Attraction will bring me that intention.
5. As I have blogged and submitted to carnivals and emailed others I have made some wonderful friends and acquaintances. It seems that the blogosphere is an amazing and fun social gathering. It is a wonderful way to meet like-minded people. Sometimes it seems funny that the people outside my family that I interact with the most are people that I have never actually met in person. But that is just a sign of the times and aren’t these times incredible?
So now I guess it’s time to pass the baton. Who can I tag?
