Blogging for the Long Haul, without all of the hype!

There is no doubt, that blogging for the long haul isn't very attractive to most people when they first start out in the world of blogging. Furthermore, most individuals these days are filled with this false illusion that just about anybody can make money, from the beginning. However, little do they know, that what they have been digesting from many of the pro bloggers, is nothing more than sugar-coated, "FLUFF" filled with the bitter sweet of broken promises and shattered dreams..

If you are new to blogging and just starting out, you need to be aware of the hype that is out there. You just can't afford to read something without researching it, before you jump on the band-wagon and follow the leader. Most of what is out there is much bigger than life. Meaning, that it is artificially inseminated to attract you into believing the illusion that they have created.

The illusion, is nothing more than very clever link bait, that is used to hook, line and sinker you into their world of reality. Furthermore, it is not hard to be taken in by them, when they show you pictures of all the great placed they travel, eat and sleep. Throw in some pictures of women with large breasts wearing tight fitted bloggers t-shirts and most people will take the bait! Yep! Put one of them humongous breasts in your mouth, the other in your ear, and one might think you are able to talk to heaven. LOL!

The problem is that most pro bloggers aren't only bloggers they are part illusionists. In many ways, they are also an ingenuous salesman, selling you a dream that only comes true for just a few lucky individuals. However, since they are masters of deception, they easily prey on you like a wolf in sheep's clothing! They start by manipulating your wants and desires, to lure you into what they artificially inseminated. Yes, they find your weakness and push your buttons, especially the one starting with "G", the "GREED BUTTON". Once they push enough buttons and happen to get you to activate the greed button, you become quite easy to manipulate. It is not only happening every day of the week it is something that is quite easy to do. It just takes a bit of psychology!

I am not saying that all pro bloggers are this way. However, I am saying that you need to be aware of things that sound too good to be true. Furthermore, trust needs to be earned by everybody, no matter what status you have. If you are asked to do something for someone, you need to ask yourself what you are getting back in return. Is it a fair payback for the amount of work that you did for them, or are they going to pay you back with left over crumbs?

Remember, nothing good comes that easy without a lot of hard work! Furthermore, do not believe everything that you hear and don't allow yourself to be used by people who have no intentions of giving you something worthwhile in return. However, if you get tricked into accepting crumbs, don't go back for second helpings!
