Getting Motivated & Finding Your Niche?

Finding Your Niche?

I love blogging, it’s no secret. That being said I’ve been struggling to decide what I type of blog I want to have. For the last four years it has been about beauty or fashion whilst not really having an obvious aim. Whilst I still love beauty, and fashion I don’t love them as much as I once did and so it has been hard to focus and stay motivated.

The blogging community is such  a diverse community. Whilst you can blog about anything and there is a place for everyone; it easy to not know where you belong. Am I a beauty blogger? Or a fashion blogger? I don't believe you need meet certain requirements; it's just important to ensure you passionate about what are writing about, then you'll have your place.

I want to write about what I enjoy and what I am passionate about. I am  really dedicated to saving money, if you know me in person you know I’m always talking about ways to cut costs and stick to budget. I love to get good deals on high end products and I don’t think you  need to spend a lot to live a luxurious life. I love to throw parties, from the planning, to finding the supplies and creating the decorations. Party planning is my thing. 

My blog is going to become a place where I can write about money saving or party planning; beauty or fashion. Whilst I'm calling it lifestyle it is going to be a place where I write about what I'm loving right now. This will give my blog the freedom to grow as my life changes. 

The last few years have been tough on me but I now feel as if I am coming out the other side and things are looking up. So I’m hoping to motivate myself and transform my blog into something I can be  proud of. In order to do that I need to get myself my motivated, here are some tips that have helped me get my head in the game. 

Tips For Getting and Staying Motivated!

• Get support; finding someone to help you will keep you on the right track and focused. 
• Start small, it's really important that what you are aiming towards is realistic.So set goals that are easily achievable to start with.
• Stick at it, don't give up. Even if you're having an off day, don't give up. It's just a bump in the road, so don't give up when it gets tough.

Most importantly try to enjoy what you are doing, I know that's not always possible but if you are enjoy what you're doing you're more likely to be motivated.
