I would say one of the hardest experiences I have with blogging is honestly sometimes you get some really angry and hurtful people and I think that that's probably the hardest part about blogging is dealing with all the negative, all the people who complain. If you think the cancel culture is bad, wait until you try to voice an opinion about something online. It was so bad that when I got engaged to my wife, I legitimately had people reaching out to her, sending her messages on Facebook and warning her saying, oh, you don't know who he is, he's a bad person. And it was crazy to realize how angry and vitriolic people can get. Now at the same point, it is super fulfilling to be able to help people. And so don't take a hard experience and think that it's not worth it. It's definitely worth it, but that is definitely one of the hardest aspects of blogging is dealing with the angry people, the Karen's, so to speak.

The hardest part about blogging is kind of with anything with YouTubing or social media when you put yourself out there and are hoping your thoughts are received in a certain way, but they're not and people take things a different way And it causes controversy That's a hard thing and so I try to be very cautious when I post something and I can usually tell When the hornet's nest is gonna get rattled a little bit and so I prepare myself mentally for that But the longer I've been blogging the more I'm I'm bold about stuff like that And so just keep in mind that when you hit publish People are gonna see it and people are gonna react and you're not necessarily gonna like their reactions and they're not necessarily gonna like your stuff And so just be prepared for that

I think something that a lot of full-time bloggers run into is when you have a revenue stream like it's just this shift and the constant moving landscape when it comes to revenue and also engagement it's something that you're constantly working and constantly battling with and so you might have a revenue stream that generates 80% of your revenue and literally overnight it's gone or it decreases by 80% and now you're scrambling and you're trying to stay on top of that and it really is the hardest aspect especially initially when you're running a blog is all of the the variability and change when it comes to your revenue streams so just FYI not necessarily part of this but as a little tip diversify your revenue streams
