Blogging for Branding, Education and Business Series (Part 1)

If I usually present a rather heavy article, so in this article I deliberately try to make it a little lighter, by the way this discussion about blogging habit. This article firstly comes from my brother's question, Ocha, who is currently studying philosophy of science FIB UI. He asked me a question like: "do you really need to blog? Because not that blogging is just a waste of time. Moreover, if you have committed and will be consistent in publishing the article, it's like only being chased by the deadline."

Then my first answer randomly: "because writing is a hobby, so it requires the distribution, and automatically because the distribution of a hobby so I am not burdened. Well, the blog becomes an excellent medium for me, because I have sent several articles to newspapers, but they was never published. So this blog is more like an outlet, haha!

After a slight joking way, I got serious explaining to Ocha. 3 Reasons I am blogging (although more correct to say a benefit).

1. For Branding,
2. Education,
3. and business.

Blogging For Education

Dear readers, with or without realizing it when you're blogging in fact there is an education process there. Especially when you have a background that is far from the world of writing.

Blogs can be written exercises means that in fact is one of the important skills that must be held whenever and wherever you are.

For example for a student who must have good writing skills for the task, theses, etc. As for those who are working I think not far from the so-called "report"in any of your work. Even in the working world is actually very important. Why? Since this will be more value for you to be promoted to certain positions.

In addition, an important and implicit in the habit of blogging is the ability of existing ideas in our minds either in the form of oral and written. And that is all represented as the process of blogging

I am sure, blogging certainly originated from an idea right? Well then you try how these ideas can be communicated well in written form so that readers can understand what the intent and purpose of your ideas are.

I often see some of my friends who actually have brilliant ideas, but never implemented and bring a good only because they are unable to communicate.

the Educational Process

So here's the educational process. Want a proof ...? Try to prove itself, take note of your writing style when you just start a blog than compare it when you've made more than 50 articles, I am very confident they will be very different.

Even if you see my blog has a few articles but writing neatly structured, it's because on my old blog before I've written about 50 articles. So there is a habit and learning process and the changes for the better.

So in blogging for education, you have to get two points. First you practice to write and communicate ideas into practice both written and spoken (written with oral language.)

Well, actually there is a third point for this education. What is it? It is the ability to search for specific information, process, and present better. This is reflected when you look for supporting data for your writing to be more valid and not just a mere opinion.

The ability of this third point will be very useful to you in the face of complex problems.

Conclusions

When we are faced with a problem, then the best solution is to analyze the problem, then find some info. From the information that has been processed and there can be a solution to your problem.

Well, apparently blogging has many advantages. For bloging for business branding and I will discuss in the next article in order not to be lengthy. Good luck Y'all!
