Previous Series => PART 01, PART 02, PART 03

In part 2 and part 3 we saw how to breed the ideas, more precisely about the approaches you need to have. Now in this final part, we will see some tricks and methods to help you capitalize, maximize and boost ideas coming in your mind. Let’s get started:

1) PSM - Plan, Manage And Schedule Your Blogging Activity

To help you understand, I will take my personal experience with this point.
Initially, I used to blog only when I was motivated and when I felt in the mood to write something. But this proved to be a bad method since I saw myself blogging very rarely with at times producing only like 3 articles per month. And at times, I saw myself also blogging in excess - see my Archive Page to observe this trend. This eratic behaviour is not desirable in the long run, you have to blog in a consistent fashion; whether every week, every friday, only on weekends or everyday.

What I want to say here is to spot when you can blog with a free mind, on a day or days when you can only do one thing, that is blogging. In my case, I spotted my blogging time to be specially on saturdays and/or sundays. During this time interval, I concentrate only on doing one thing, blog. When I’m done with this day objective, then I go on to the next objective, in my case coding my online game.

2) Note Down Every Single Idea

The biggest mistake a blogger can make is to think of a brilliant idea and saying I will get back to it later when I blog. This “later time” is your idea killer. You will not be in the same state of mind as in that perfect time when that wonderful idea came into your mind.
To prevent idea leakage, do the following:
a) Use a notebook - In real life, keep a notebook handy and jot down your ideas. When on pc, use programs like NotePad, WritePad or whatever you like to note and save all your ideas
b) Emailing - When I’m work, at times it happens that an idea just flash across my mind, so I write everything on notepad and at the end of the day I just email it to myself. Once at home I have it handy.
c) Recording - Some people like recording ideas. You don’t need to buy a recorder nowadays, most of the mobile phones do provide this feature. So those who like recording, just use your mobile
d) A Moleskin - A handy framework which is aimed only at one thing: “help you note down and organise your ideas”

3) Put What You Noted, Into Actions

Just noting down everything and leaving aside, does no good. Most of the time, it might be easy to say that we have everything noted and we can surely get back later on. This is another mistake. Use your Planned Blogging Time, to put your jotted thoughts into action by developing them into a full-fledged article.

4) Write Ideas AT once

Whenever possible, do write down your ideas into a flowing article at once. Because the best time to actually come up with a good post, is the time when a wonderful idea hits your mind. This is the perfect time, why not capitalize on it?! You will find that writing things in this way, will definetly bring you the best of articles.

5) Inspiration And Motivation

Writing, just like any other passion that you have, can be triggered by inspiration and motivation. Analyse yourself and see what are the sources of inspiration and motivation. For some people these sources might be another successful blogger, a book author, an actor, music or just sitting in a place where you are in contact with nature and clamness.
Find it and see wonderful ideas emerging like flowers’ scent.

That’s it, we have a full blown set of approaches and methods to help you come up with wonderful ideas. Hopefully if you follow them, you will surely see a positive growth in your blogging trend.

Is It Over?

This series of coming up with the right idea is over, but keep hooking we still have to analyse how to bring the right stuff to the right audience.

Today while going to work, I was sitting behind two university students. I guess they were in their first year, seeing them revising pretty obvious things, apparently for a class test. (but I was like them too in my first year )
I heard one of them saying: “did you search for the uses and limitations of the Internet.. damm, we can be assessed today..”
So, I tried to figure out the answer in my mind, but then I said to myself why not blog about it tonight itself. So, let’s briefly find an answer to our two “uni friends” examinable question.

Uses Of The Internet

1) Information Resource.

Anyone, anywhere, can use the Internet as an informative resource since it is packed with so many many many articles about almost any topics.

2) Education Resource.

I guess you figured this out: our “two friends” can find an answer to their question online if they haven’t find the solution. But most importantly, they can immediately google for this information right from the university lab (which I bet they did). So, the Internet can be a very handy and instant educative platform for any student from any machine with an internet connectivity.

3) Online Magazines and Newspapers

Nowadays, you don’t really need to buy a newspaper or magazine due to their online availability.

4) Online Shopping and Commerce (E-Commerce)

This is pretty obvious too, you can buy and sell online. A very big advantage of E-Commerce is that you can target a wider audience as compared to a business which is local to a country.

5) Online Communication

How can we possibly forget this one? Internet is a crucial medium for communication and interaction. Examples are blogging (you are reading this from a blog), forum or communities, chat rooms, social platforms like myspace, facebook..etc, instant messaging like msn or yahoo messenger chat, Email, and so many other forms of communication available.

6) Sharing of views and opinions about anything.

A concrete example is me, Wakish, sharing my own perception and experience about “the uses and limitations of the internet” which you are reading right now. Another example might be YOU, the reader, contributing more to what I’m saying by commenting in the form below..

7) Sharing of softwares, music, ebooks and other products

This is pretty much clear.

8.) Advertising and Promotion of items and products.

Internet has become a very powerful advertising medium..infact it’s a craze these days.. Everyone everywhere has something to advertise online, including me (it’s the mantra..)

9) Video Conferencing and Remote Desktop

These two have undergone a whole new and beneficial dimension, especially for business and companies (If you want an explanation on these two concepts, let me know - I’ll be glad to try to come up with something to please you )

10) *You Say What?*
Common, this is supposed to be you and me discussing, so let us hear some more uses from you!

Limitations Of Internet

1) The quality of information resources might not always be reliable and accurate.

Of course, with so many many websites and webmasters claiming to be an expert in almost anything, we are ending up with stuffs like “learn how to earn online with a 13 year old“. While I don’t blame such approaches, their integrity and experience about the subject is definetly questionable.

2) Searching of information can be very tedious. (It IS definetly time consuming)

Let’s a take an example, just google for the word “money“, you will see 10 pages full of resources (That’s only with google, now there are yahoo, msn..etc). So finding what you are exactly looking for, might take you some hours of browsing..

3) Internet is definetly not 100% secure.

We cannot neglect things like identity theft, a pc being compromised by a cracker or your email account being compromised..etc
( Thought: may be you could think about the possible solutions for this situation )

4) *Say Your Part*
What have I left out or wrongly said? Let me hear you..
