The Dangers of Blogging for Money

The Dangers of Blogging for Money
© dearbarbie

First off let me state that I blog for money, that's what I do for a living and I like it. For the most part I can make my own hours, go out to lunch with a friend if I want to, go to school meetings and go to the gym. I just have to make up the work later. The downside is that if I take a day off because I'm sick, no one is going to do the work for me, it will still have to be done when I get back.

Jennifer, from Network Blogging Tips blogged about an important lesson she learned about blogging for money. It can become addicting. You're asked to take on one more job and you think, what's one more. Soon you have way too much to do and not enough time to do it all. Soon you're pulling your hair out.

When this happens you have to sit back and think about what's more important in your life. Your blogging, your networking, eating, family. Then you need to give something up. Or, you need to learn to say "No" in the first place.
