I carry a small pocket notebook with me. I use it to capture ideas for future articles. It's rare that a day goes by without a new idea, and if I'm attending a conference, it's not unusual for the number of ideas generated to get into double figures.
When you have a lot of choice as to what to right about, it's easier to create content.
This is a struggle for anyone. Try and be as systematic about it as possible. Stephen King says you write 1,000 words a day, and in 5 months you've got a book (might not be a good book, but you've got a draft.) Reserving time upfront is critical. Also, be sure you're prepared with research and source material before you start cranking it out. Have a good sense of what you're going to write instead of sitting down at the word processor cold. Another thing that would help is to have fellow experts in complementary areas write posts for you. I'm starting to do this more - it helps get their audience to your blog too. Bottom line is it's writing, or more accurately, it's WORK. Like to hear any other suggestions as well.
Great post, I live by the idea of scheduling my life with little bits of flexibility for urgent situations. I have a note pad by my bed (I still get ideas at night, not just bad dreams). But my schedule is usually parsed out in weeks, that way I leave some room for those urgent necessities and can make up for the hours I want to dedicate to a task throughout the week. Works for me...
Great ideas and discussion about how to separate the urgent vs. the important.
Does the link for the ebook work correctly? Takes me to a landing page but not for an ebook.
Sorry about that, Blair, and thanks for pointing it out! Here is the correct link: http://www.hubspot.com/the-ultimate-how-to-marketing-guide/
Thanks everyone for the great tips!
Great article as per usual.
I agree about multitasking- i set an hour aside each morning to create content for me- my clients- well that's another story
Reassuring points here Magdalena and David. I think it’s entirely within reason that someone can engage social media in robust ways with just a few hours a week. I think it’s more overwhelming when you are just starting out and don’t have a good work flow set up for yourself, much less full understanding of all the tools that can make these things easier. Greg’s point in the comments here is a good one: lean on people to get more content. Where I think time becomes even harder to manage is when your social media efforts in fact are more successful, when the sheer volume of tweets and posts about your company or brand is all that much larger. It could definitely require a dedicated team, and I see time and again on blogs and with clients this being a fairly difficult point for companies looking to adopt better social media strategies—that they just don’t have the resources (time or payroll) to do exactly what they want. But again, it’s about starting out slow and figuring out what works for you—much like exercise, it just takes some persistence and a little bit of learning. @ryoatcision
