In today's society, a college degree tells little about what you know in comparison to what it tells about
what you can learn. For example, the IT world is constantly changing. Anything you learn today will probably
be useless in a few short years. The point is to learn to learn.
Blogging (写博客) works exactly the same way. And I believe this to be true regardless of your end goal.
If you're trying to make money , this is very clear. There's always more money to be made. If you're teaching
on a subject, you are constantly looking for new information to share. Even if you're just sharing your words
with others for pleasure, you're continuously improving your writing and storytelling so people don't get bored
of you.
This is one of the reasons that bloggers burn out. They forget this. They think they have an unlimited
amount of content just waiting to burst from their brain. They get comfortable. Then they start to run out of
juice. Sure, at times it seems that some bloggers just have it. They are experts in their fields and will simply
feed us with invaluable content forever. But this is not true. Pay attention. Even famous bloggers would run
out of content eventually without constant learning.
The point is easy to see. Don't think you've succeeded. There is no summit. What happens when someone
thinks they've hit the summit? They quickly begin falling down the other side. Always be learning from your
experiences. See what posts work for your readers. Which get the best response? Which are completely
ignored? Which bring in the most Google traffic, or get the most Absence clicks? Don't settle or your blog will
close for ever eventually.
