Before televisions, before the computer, before the iPod was not something fantastical from a future far beyond, there were books. This was the source of all information and it was not just that; it was also a prime source of leisure and relaxation. It was a simple activity from a simple time and it seems that the importance of reading has been lost on a generation that loves to text speak “lyk dis, LOL. Aint it gr8? ROFLMAO LOL, J/K”. Reading language such as that hurts my brain cells and makes me fear for our future if this is the generation that will be our tomorrow. I remember spending hours reading books and traveling thousands of miles in the blink of an eye without so much as moving from a spot. It was entertaining, but it was also stimulating to read books. It is not just that the importance of reading has been lost somewhere along the way; it is also the skills it breeds and the passion it invokes that has been lost. There are just so many exciting things to do that books have  [...]

Creative thinking can always be brought on, no matter what you feel about it. A lot of people I know feel they just haven't got the wherewithal to be creative. Perhaps they come from a background that requires them to be more structured and more logical with their thinking. Perhaps they've never had to undertake a task that requires creativity, and so they feel that creative thinking is beyond them. Perhaps they just see others as more creative, something that is not meant for themselves to indulge in. Whatever the reason though, there is one fact I’d like to being to your attention.

You're creating a brand, a strategy and that's what makes you more creative  [...]

This is something that must be incredibly familiar to a lot of people. You pick a topic you like a lot, something you know a reasonable amount about, and you write as well as you can about it. You write with passion, with conviction, with authority and you angles are interesting. It seems like a great post on the face of it, one that should bring in new readers that applaud your vision and way with words. You've even been doing a bit of research and you're smart enough to know that you need to tell people about it. So you send emails to people on your subscriber list, point them in the direction of the post and wait. Feet up on the desk and coffee in hand, you relax. The hits are bound to come. But as opposed to increase popularity of your blog posts, that killer post does nothing. Absolutely nothing. What a colossal disappointment. There are no links to speak, no replies for you to mull over, and what's worst is the fact that your stats counter shows no one even clicked on the link you  [...]

If you are into content marketing, you have some decisions to make. You can either be passive and hope like hell that your content goes viral. You'll have to just cross your fingers and hope that little streams of traffic keep growing and that your readers will spread the word like wildfire. That's a lot of if's right there, a whole lot of hoping. Perhaps viral campaigns will take off without you having to do anything. But sometimes you will have to bring out the matches and the lighter fluid and set things afire yourself. That's just the way it is. As a blogger and/or someone into content marketing, what are you going to choose? Sure, your passion for any given subject could be enough to capture someone's imagination, compelling them to share your thoughts with a wider audience. Make no mistake, that is fantastic, and sparking such conviction has a combustibility all of its own. When something explodes into life all by itself, there can hardly be any more satisfying feeling. But to tell  [...]

The terms money, power and respect are completely different but they coincide themselves somewhere in between the lines or in the process of acquiring them. People work hard to earn money and gain the respect in the society. These three terms feels so synonymous and completely dependent on each other but in practicality, they are so indifferent. It is an old saying, “Earn money, power and respect” meaning that first you earn money and from that money you gain the power and through that power people will respect you.
