The world of work is an interesting place. It’s something we do for money. To support our lifestyles. To live. But it’s also quite often something that we do for enjoyment too. Because we’re a long time working. We spend a large portion of our lives, most of the time that we are actually alive, working. And so isn’t it fair that we get to do something that we love. Or, at the very least, seems right for us? However, so many of us fall into career paths that perhaps are not. That couldn’t be any further from what we like in life. And it makes us all so unhappy.
How to be Productive working from home with kids

However, it’s possible to juggle it all effortlessly if you take certain strategies into account. Consider these three ways you can balance it all and take care of yourself.
1. Utilize delivery services.
If you can minimize the number of trips you make to the store, you’ll make your life a lot easier. When you have some down time, use your laptop to get some shopping done.

Take advantage of the world wide web because it is such an amazing resource. It’ll make your life a lot easier.
2. Use a planner.
If you don’t make a plan, this is a perfect way to plan failure. At the top of each month, write down a list of all the goals you intend to achieve. Also, break each goal down into separate tasks.

Use your planner to remind you about the items you need to take care of. This way, you’ll also avoid procrastination and disorganization.

How to be a Successful Blogger?
Sunday, July 17
SELF - CONFIDENCE. Yes! Believe in yourself. For me, blogging is an art. And Creativity takes courage. Develop that skill and continue to believe that you can do it. You can be a successful blogger.
CONSISTENCY. Post as much as frequently as possible. Readers will read blogs which are always updated. That is what keeps them coming. You can start by making blog series. I got this idea from other bloggers too. And really that is quite effective. The key here is to find blog series topics which are engaging and somewhat intriguing so you readers will keep on coming and provide that sense of excitement to come back.
PERSISTENCE. When I was starting out, I had zero followers. No one reads my post and my lay-out was bad. The key to this is to be persistent in visiting other bloggers webpages, giving sincere comments after reading their blog posts and putting your blog link. Asking for a follow was not bad as long as you maintain a healthy relationship with your blogger friends. This way your following will grow eventually and people will visit and read your blog. The tools I used before was the Google Friend Connect since they automatically adds our blog feeds to the person's blogger dashboard. That way fellow bloggers are updated of our posts. And may actually catch their attention to read our posts. Simple as that.
FINDING WAYS TO IMPROVE. Never settle. Always find ways to improve. Seek help from the internet on how to improve. Before my blog lay-out was very bad and I had no idea about HTML and editing my blog skins. Through the years, I have developed that skill. And i loved changing my layouts on my own. The key to blog layouts though is not to overdo it. Use only widgets which you think are useful and helpful for your blog. A mistake I have learnt over years in blogging.
CONNECT WITH OTHER BLOGGERS. As I have already mentioned, blogging would be boring if you blog alone. You need a community where you can grow. Start by joining or continue building a community of like minded bloggers. One is joining facebook groups and posting or sharing relevant blog posts or even your own blog posts.
SHARING USEFUL INFORMATION. Sharing is caring as everyone says. So share your content. Remember to share only information that will somehow be relevant to your readers. Share. Share. and Share. Timing is also relevant especially with the social media platforms nowadays. Schedule sharing optimally to make sure you catch the right individuals at the same time.
HONESTY. As much as possible be honest. You can never go wrong with this. Build an online reputation where your readers, advertisers and the like will trust.
TAKE GOOD PICTURES. And last but not the least take good pictures. Make an effort to provide your readers the visual learning as they say. Reading long blog posts can be boring so use engaging and great photos with your posts and your blog will go a long way!
