As a general principle, to build a successful blog treat your first 100 posts as practice. For your first 100 articles, videos, or any other type of content you create, focus on honing your craft. Pay attention to what resonates with people. Develop related technical skills, like customizing a website or video editing. If you adopt this mindset, you’ll enjoy the process much more, and the quality of your content will improve much quicker

Many people use the marathon analogy when describing what it takes to build a creative business online. Though useful, a better one is a vegetable garden. Growing a garden not only requires time and patience but care and awareness. There are different seasons involved and a lot to learn. But over time, you’ll start to notice signs of life peeking through the dirt. And eventually, the plants you sustained will come to produce things that sustain you. Before long, people will look at what you’ve built and wonder how you achieved your “overnight success” too.
