ONE Thing All Successful Bloggers Understand

May 2, 2019

You’re here because you want in on a secret. Maybe you’re thinking of starting your own blog or Instagram account with the hopes of making money. Maybe you’d just like to supplement your current income while having fun and sharing your words and pictures. Maybe you’re stuck in a 9-5 you hate and have been dreaming of telling your boss to shove it.

Dear boss: don’t be a prick.

Starting a business is scary, plain and simple.

What makes a business owner successful? How do they take the bull by the horns and create something from nothing to support their lives and families?

In starting my blog and wanting to create an intangible business online, I drilled every one of my friends and acquaintances who owned their own businesses. I’m talking hair stylists, welders, restaurant owners, life coaches, coffee shop owners, bloggers, photographers….. because I had a NEED to know: how did they do it???
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Every one of them, every. single. one, shrugged, then said something along the lines of
“I dunno. I just do it.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Most of them don’t quite know the next step. They’ve been freakin’ terrified at regular intervals. But they do it anyway. They take what they know, what they’re good at, and they find people who need that skill. Period.


⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If this sounds like an over simplified explanation, that’s because it sort of is. But it’s the absolute basis for any business: Fill a need. Solve a problem. What may seem obvious to you is amazing and life changing to others. You don’t have to have all the answers to begin.

What you do need is the courage to start and a willingness to make shit up as you go.

So, whether you’re ready to start a blog or you’ve already established your little piece of the interwebs and you’re looking to grow, understand that there is no one, exclusive way to do it. Much of the time, we figure it out on the fly, and that’s ok. The important thing to remember is, unless you get out there and just do it, nothing will ever happen.

So, I tried the @revengexbodyco bodysuit. Here’s So, I tried the @revengexbodyco bodysuit. Here’s my thoughts:

• I’m small, but I’m not petite. I got the XS/S and it could have been a *tiny* bit tighter just to really pull that waist in. Petite gals may not find it as *tight* as they’d like.

•The colors are 💯

•They ship from China. So you’re not supporting American-made. Bummer.

• No need for a bra! If you are a little self conscious about nip-peekage, pull the padding out of a swimsuit top and place it in there. Voila! (This hack is AMAZING for all bodysuits, FYI) #ittybittytittycommittee 

• I’d buy them again. I love the shaping and the support.

Have you tried the @revengexbodyco yet?? What are your thoughts?!
3 things I learned at my first full dressage show: 3 things I learned at my first full dressage show:

1. Preparation is everything. My old advisor loved to tell me “we don’t plan to fail, we fail to plan,” and as much as I may hate to admit, he was right. You can’t walk into a new venture without doing your homework first. Make a list, crush those goals. Then make a new list.

2. Show up 100% and look good. Even if you’ve shirked a bit on #1, maybe you’ll get points for style. 😂

3. BREATH. Bad scores happen. Ponies get fussy. Sometimes you think you did well and the judge doesn’t agree at all. 😫 It’s all good. It’s not the end of the world. Take a deep breath and try again.

@ghostfacepony is a strong horse. My leg muscles were not prepared to handle so much riding and training in a 4-day span. I’m still grabbing the handicap rail when I sit down on the toilet. I’m not too proud to admit it. We did our best with the situations presented to us. Our first test was great, the second not so much. And we had to scratch the last test due to rain/footing conditions. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I was super disappointed, but safety first. Fall seven times, get up 8. Hey, at least we looked good. 😉

A HUGE thank you to @breakthroughsmashroom for helping us ring in the new year in an AMAZING way. I feel renewed and ready to take on this year. I highly suggest bringing a paint marker with you when you visit them (W Union Hills & 35th Ave). Write it down. Smash it. Let it go. 🎈

Cheers to 2023. I’m ready for you. ✨

In 2022 I’m working on firmer boundaries and les In 2022 I’m working on firmer boundaries and less busyness. I have noticed that I have been using ‘crazy-busy’ as a badge of honor, as a way of feeling important, as a numbing mechanism to stay out in front of my feelings. Anyone else guilty of that??

In this coming year, I’m determined to simplify my life & set the boundaries I need to not just survive, but to conquer. ✌🏼 Who’s with me?

#NationalDayoftheHorse gave me an excuse to post a #NationalDayoftheHorse gave me an excuse to post about my blue-eyed boy @ghostfacepony. This horse has challenged me in so many ways since coming back into my life last year. I wouldn’t trade a minute of it—he’s made me a better rider AND horse owner. With the help of our amazing trainer & one of my closest friends @eikelbaughman, we’ve found a home in the Arizona dressage scene. We’re riding in our next show in January—I’m looking forward to the adventure! 🏅 Follow his account @ghostfacepony for all the pony content!
