WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

Blogging

I recently read a post on a fun website I subscribe to The Future Buzz and an article by Adam Singer cought my attention. In it, he poses the question and distinguishes between an "active" and a "passive" person. I'm taking a little further and applying it to the "Blogger".

You are an "Active Blogger" IF...

  • Use the Internet at least every other day to express yourself and learn about the world around you. Passive if you simply read but not express.
  • Strategize your blogging plans and work to accomplish those goals. Passive if you wait for a miracle.
  • Active Bloggers "bookmarks" and comes back to analyze an article and draws ideas from it. Passive if you bookmark them and never come back to them, real passive if it's been a years since you last looked at it!
  • Have a close cirlce of connections within your Blogs and have had lunch or coffee with at least one. Passive if you just don't care.
  • Active Bloggers spend their days "looking-out" for opportunities (subjects/topics) to share with the world, even when they're not in-front of their computers.  Passive if you just "thought" the post out in your mind and never delivered it.
  • If you pursue your goals as a Blogger, you're an active one, passive if you forgot where you wrote those goals.
  • You don't wait for an opportunity...you create it.  Passive if you need it handed to you.
  • You make your own opinions on things and are not afraid to share them with the world. Passive if you let others make up your mind for you.

So are you an active blogger or a passive one? Add to the list!

I find it tough to find new content everyday and try to articulate a decent article in a moderate amount of time.  Getting better as I do though.

Chris and Maria - I am working on being a more active blogger.  I am on my way, but still am passive in some ways.  The more I write, the more comfortable I become.

Common thread here>>>>WISH I HAD MORE TIME (to Blog that is)! I'm with you...it's hard to find the time especially when you want to do it right...some people post just to post something and I have a hard time with that. Thanks for your comments everyone.
