The reason for the creation of my blog
Lately I’ve felt as though my life was extremely cliché. I was always expected to excel in academics/extracurricular activities, therefore I wanted to take a step back and focus on my personal life and what I had to offer towards others. By doing so, I would be able to wind down all while helping others strive towards their personal goals and bring out the adventure in them. I’ve always felt passionate about writing and sharing mutual interests, therefore what better way to share my lifestyle, travel, coffee and advice to others? Thus, Lifestyle with Lauren was born!
My Advice for Others
1. Before a Blog can be created, one must figure out what they’d like to inspire others with. Each person has their own personality and plenty to offer the world. Jot down a few ideas of what interests you most and carefully plan out how you’d like to set your blog up to capture the attention of fellow bloggers. Rushing a blog will only cause you to feel stressed and out of tune with your writing. If you carefully create each piece that ties together, you’ll feel much more stress-free and enjoy the experience all together. Blogging is meant to be fun, not mundane!
2. Make sure to research plenty of bloggers who have similar interests to you. Sharing your experience and common interests make blogging that much more fun. You might even get to collaborate with a few!
(HOWEVER: make sure you keep your posts original and DO NOT copy other bloggers work. Be unique)!
