Do you have trouble creating a secure password? I sure do. My bad habit is the desire to use the same one multiple times. Oh and I also want it to be something that I will easily remember.

Passwords are the most challenging part of digital life.

Thankfully, I learned a cool tip that was sitting right in front me and before today, I didn't even realize it.

LastPass is a digital password manager tool. It makes logging into all of your digital properties much easier. You can also share access to an account such as your WordPress blog with someone without actually giving them the password.

It turns out that LastPass will also generate super secure passwords for you. This is extremely handy.

Let's be honest for a moment. Social media is tricky for business owners. Do you ever wonder what the heck to post on Instagram?

If you are like me you can stare at your phone and wonder, WTF am I going to share next??!!

We all know that social media is important. It is where the people are. As small business owners and bloggers (yes, you are a small business owner too), we must go where the people are.

Are the people in your life questioning what on earth you are doing?

Perhaps you are trying to grow a blog or you are trying to start a business and people are questioning you. Can you relate to this?

Just the other day I was on Quora and there were some hot conversations happening around this topic.

The truth is, this is normal. When we venture onto a path that is time consuming and often isolating the people in our lives worry and wonder about us.

It isn't normal to start a blog. It isn't normal to be an entrepreneur.

I hear all of the time that we need to be content machines but is that really true? There is so much content now. Maybe this idea is wrong and Gary Vee is right. Maybe we should document the process of our day and our business and just try to be human?
What do you think?

Nope, it’s not a new man in my life. Well he is, kind of. MeetEdgar is a browser-based social media scheduling tool. It allows you to divide your content into categories and then you can schedule social media updates that use your “library” of evergreen content. We tried him out over a year ago on the recommendation of Pat Flynn but found the system a bit cumbersome at the time. After looking at our array of tools and not seeing what we needed for automation, I decided to give him another try and they must have done some upgrades because the platform is darn easy to use now. I got content loaded and scheduled in just 20 minutes.

Why I Must Hustle Harder To Achieve My Goal

I set a goal for 2017 and I am doing terrible at it but I am not giving up. My goal is to create 1,000 pieces of content.

So far I have created 129. Yep, today is April 2 and I am way off base.

If you own a website you need to know this. Do you know what premium products are being used on your site?

If you had a developer create your website or your blog you need to have access to all the logins for your premium products.

Ask your developer how you can log into the theme shop and the account for your premium plugins.

We both know that you suck at writing. You will never write anything that is worthy of reading. There is absolutely no way that you will get any readers. Every single day that you log into your WordPress dashboard and look at your analytics you will see a flat line, a big fat 0.

Admit it right now!

That is what you say to yourself right? That is how you feel?

Hell, it is how I feel. Surely you feel it too.

Just today I was reading Create Or hate: Successful People Make Things http://amzn.to/2hHCJVn and on page 30 he writes about the negative self talk that we all say to ourselves.

That is some messed up stuff.

If you had a friend that was considering starting a blog, you would never say what you just read above to that friend.

What would you say to that friend that wants to start a blog?

What if the key to success is to keep going even when it sucks? Well, I suspect that is the success key. Sure, you have to have a good idea right?

I am breaking the rules of blogging these days.

How so?

Well for quite a while now we have been told to create epic content. It is good advice. As a matter of fact, I know without a doubt that it is absolutely sound advice.

How do I know?

Well because this epic post is still my most popular piece day after day. Check it out if you want but I warn you it is long: http://iteachblogging.com/leverage-browser-caching/.

Epic content is awesome but I have a theory. Sometimes a quick tip is better.

But the problem with quick tips is that they equal short blog posts.

Short blog posts are supposedly bad for SEO.

The horror.
