You must learn your limitations, both in life and in the Internet. There’s a maximum number of projects you can manage at once, any more than that and all your projects will suffer.

I see it fairly commonly on the Internet, especially among Bloggers. They have a dozen ideas that they want to implement and make successful, but once they’ve set up their blog, or bought the domain, they lose momentum because of all the other things they have to manage. They just have too much to do! So those domains and blogs sit there, gathering dust and using up money.

So what do you think you could do to prevent over-burdening yourself? The one thing I’d suggest is to try your ideas out before you make any commitment to them: white a dozen posts and see whether you can really do it or not. Browse for themes before hand to see if you can get started straight away. Check out the competition, or the keywords.

That way you wont find yourself with half a dozen never-updated blogs that show a heap of potential, but you just can’t get off the ground. And if you do, you can try to sell off unused domains, or let your free blogs go idle and wait until you can get back to them.

Remember: Only take on what you can carry.

It’s all just words really. You could read the same information in a dozen places, and it would all be of equal value, but that doesn’t mean it’s of equal enjoyment. The same old thing can be re-hashed again and again, and you care less and less. That’s why everyone needs an Akubra hat.

 A hat equates to a personality, a particular voice that comes through when you’re writing to make you more than just another re-hashed pile of information. If you can write with a unique voice, or in other words wearing your, then you suddenly become a real, live, human being and not just text on a screen.

Akubra’s aren’t for everyone. I’ve seen people write with the voice of philosophers, mothers, battlers, game characters and even cats. (If my cat did have a voice, he still wouldn’t say anything.) You  need to have a bit of personality, mate, you really do. Trying to be too informative without being personable is simply dry and boring. Honestly, who surfs the net to be bored?
