One of the most important benefits of maintaining this blog and writing a daily blog post is being able to think out loud and form my thoughts from time to time. Often this will involve thinking about my marketing strategy for my business, my solicitor’s practice.

Daily blogging for over 2 years
I wrote a blog post on 22nd January 2022 entitled “I am going to blog daily for 12 months”. It was a test for myself to see how long I could do it. It was also an attempt to create what I believed to be a good habit, a worthwhile one which would benefit me… Continue reading Daily blogging for over 2 years
Blogging is dead?
I saw a YouTube video yesterday entitled “Blogging is dead” or “Is blogging dead?” I must do a search for it today and take a look. But even if the thesis of the video is that blogging is dead from a marketing perspective, and that may well be the case, I will continue blogging for… Continue reading Blogging is dead?
An excellent benefit of having a blog (even if nobody reads it)
One of the benefits of having a blog, even if nobody reads it, is you can use it to assemble and store valuable links for your work or life. I was reading the Irish Times this morning on my iPad and came across a case that illustrates a point I am arguing in an employment… Continue reading An excellent benefit of having a blog (even if nobody reads it)
Two reminders to myself
I am writing this note to myself to try to remember two important principles of what I do to build my brand and business. I often forget them and get side-tracked. Firstly, don’t try to make content for everyone. You can’t and won’t please everybody. Make stuff for those with whom you will do business,… Continue reading Two reminders to myself

The dilemma of my daily writing habit
I wrote yesterday about the commitment I made in January 2022 to write and publish a blog post on this blog/site every day. I have managed to achieve that daily goal and have developed what I believe to be a tremendously valuable asset; an asset for me personally and my business. The mental health benefits… Continue reading The dilemma of my daily writing habit
The daily writing commitment I made in January 2022-how has it gone?
I have been writing on this blog every day since 31st January 2022. I made a promise to myself at that time and made a public commitment to write a blog post every day. I confess to taking some pride in having done so to date. For the most part it has been easy to… Continue reading The daily writing commitment I made in January 2022-how has it gone?
The mental health benefits of blogging
I am firmly convinced that blogging has significant mental health benefits. In the same way that a diary years ago provided a secret, sacred place for a person to unload what was on their mind a blog can provide a similar benefit nowadays. You never would have published your diary and it would have been… Continue reading The mental health benefits of blogging
Maintaining the daily writing habit in Sorrento
Back in February, I think, I made a promise to myself to show up here every day and write a blog post. It could be a short one, a long one, and about anything and everything under the sun. But I would write something. And I am proud to say, have stuck with it. It… Continue reading Maintaining the daily writing habit in Sorrento
