The list:
1. That it’s difficult to keep track of all of my followers, but it’s necessary to do.
2. That some people read quite a bit of my blog, when a particular topic catches their attention.
3. That some people only read what they click on.
4. That there are some genuinely good people in the blogosphere (and, I am grateful to be getting to know them).
5. That, as a high achiever, I want to do better today than what I did yesterday.
6. That kindness is everything when trying to connect.
7. That there are jerks out there (even in the mental health portion of the blogosphere).
8. That humor counts for a lot!
9. That there is a good amount of information out there.
10. That misinformation is rampant everywhere.
11. That you should use small resolution pictures in your blog posts.
12. That I do most of my writing when I am inspired.
13. That there’s always a market for good content.
14. That the more I stay focused, the better blogger I become.
15. That I can get lost in my blog.
16. That I can get lost in other people’s blogs.
17. That the more expressive I am (women tend to be naturals in this area), the better my results.
18. That I can recognize when people have put a lot of work into their blog.
19. That I can recognize when a blog needs more work (including my own).
20. That a number of people put emphasis on churning out longer blog posts.
21. That paragraphs are inherently longer in the blogosphere.
These are just some of the things I’ve learned!
And, I’ve definitely learned more than 21 things these past 10 weeks.
How long have you been blogging? What are a few things that you have learned since you started?
I’ve been blogging for 2 1/2 years, and one of the things I like about it is that there’s always more to learn.

Oh that is a good tip on the small resolution pictures. I guess I need to apply that good advice on my blog.

This is such an interesting list because I remember thinking all these things when I first started blogging. There are definitely a lot of jerks out there- I have unfortunately had to deal with some and I’m sure most blogger have at some point- but don’t let people like that get you down. What I’ve learnt is that their negativity has more to do with them then it does with you.

Oh, absolutely. And, a jerk can’t be (nor do they want to be) educated. So, I just let them be. 🙂

Yeah exactly there is no rational way to talk to them. They don’t want to be reasonable or rational.

What a great list. and you’re right, it takes a little while to realise some of the learning, what to read, what not to read, who’s who etc. And there’s no teaching some people Mio.

This is really interesting 💕
I never knew about pictures… and I don’t think I ever meet people who aren’t kind. I hope you continue meeting awesome people.
I learned that for me it’s not about the number of followers or likes but the engagement.
Love, light and glitter
