Timing

One of the hardest things to master in presentation is timing.

It can, in fact, be argued that anything well-timed will be well-received.

The same is true for a blog: a well-timed post can sometimes make a blog.

From an immediate-impact standpoint, content that best matches your audience is ideal.


And this is the secret to giving your blog the appearance of having well-timed content:

Have content.


It really is as simple and powerful as you may think.

The more content you've created (and the better it is tagged) the more you'll sync.

The more you sync, the more you'll appear to be providing just what your customer needs.


Remember:
It can take 10 years to have an overnight success.

Inspiration

As this week comes to a close, I wanted to provide a list.

Here are some things I do to help generate content:

1. Read
As mentioned previously, much content is rehashed.
This isn't bad - as long as you're not copying without providing credit.
Likewise, if you read enough, you'll often become newly inspired.

2. Sleep
I believe everyone has experienced the sensation of delayed resolution.
This is when, after some time, the solution just "comes to you".
One of the ways in which this can happen is simply sleeping.
You may also note that being well-rested can help the creative juices too.

3. Dance
Moving about can be a mental lubricant.
The key here is to simply get up and move about without forethought.
As much as you are comfortable and able: dance!

4. Sing
Voice is tied to thought.
This is why one of the most effective ways of improving speech is through improved writing.
The reverse is true as well; learning to speak more effectively can bear fruit in your writing.
And singing can help get the lingual juices flowing.

5. Argue
Another useful tactic is to engage in a mental dialogue with someone.
The easiest and most efficient method is through argument.
Be sure that disagreement does not result in offence.

Have a great weekend!
