This is the only way you will get to success. Listen to yourself and go ahead writing whatever you feel on a particular topic.

Have you ever wondered how often do we gel with people you have just acquainted with or how close you have become to a colleague through just one acquaintance, its all in mind we want to be surrounded and be with people we are comfortable with, the people who will understand your thoughts, your feelings and also support you when the need be. As it is rightly said in this famous quote that, “Birds of the same feather flock together”, the great writings like this doesn’t emerge in just one day, they built up with experience and due knowledge in the field by scholars of yesteryears.

There are bloggers who just go about writing and try connecting to people over different social networks but they fail to understand that they can nearly take advantage of this phenomena and make more people coming to their blogs. It just doesn’t happen with you writing stuff, you have to create great powerful ideas so that people get attracted towards your blog and also take interest in reading them. Your ideas are your main weapons through which you can persuade your audience in to agreeing with your ideas and reading them further. So now lets a take brief look as to what Ideas mean.

Ideas are what we are made up of, they are our personal philosophies, you don’t go to anyone for seeking ideas, ideas just emerge in your minds which are fine tuned in brains, and they are made up of our very own views, opinions and beliefs. Our ideas are mostly based on our life’s experiences and the relationships which we maintain, they are basically the memories left in our mind of all the past experiences of life, the experiences and acquaintances of past is what makes our own idea and the thinking matter.

As it rightly said by Victor Schwab that the mind is a montage of impressions, bromidic wall sentiments, generalities and sentiments, to make it more simpler take the case of the idea of branded goods, while you are saving in on your money what is the best way to ignore buying branded stuff, it may be done through the talk that “money is wasted buying branded goods”. So you may make your opinion accordingly and a good idea to not buy branded stuff there by saving on your money.

Some people who are crazy about brands may like buying only branded stuff, they may opinionate that spending money on brands are a good use of money, this is the time when people disagree with each other for different view points and then comes dislike for each other, but if opinions match of both the parties then the parties might appear as like minded individuals and there would be no disagreements. It is commonly seen that when we are searching for some important information you might first go asking to the people who you trust the most, or the people who are experts in the field. But its after all a human tendency to go and attend to people whom we trust or rely on the most, reliability upon another person comes when they think likewise, the philosophies of people which are aligned in the same directions or the ideas and visions match.

We start trusting individuals when through some experience you might have gained or felt nice or not cheated, the feeling of trusteeship comes by associating with different types of people whose ideas we already like and resonate with. Take the example of Michael Masterson, who is a successful business with $300 million fortune, states that all we people want to get is to understand to get a way of life which is meaningful to us, everybody has the idea of how actually the world should be and what it is.

You may go for shopping for hundreds of products, and see thousands of products for that, but you will finally buy the product whose viewpoint coincides with what the mental block of that product we have prepared in our minds. And if you happen to find a person who will explain you of the methods to run the world there are mostly the chances of you sticking to that person’s view points forever. The same type of phenomena also applies to blog readers, people come and visit your blog out of curiosity to learn more about the lines in the linked pages, they come only with the trust factor that they agree to your opinions written in the blogs. The main reason behind this is that they mostly agree with your viewpoints and connect well to your language and power of writing. Let me give you a nice example that will illustrate it further more better, say you are a regular reader of John chow’s blog and you also follow him on twitter, he might have thousands of subscribers too who love reading his lines guiding them to the true path of life.

Most of us who are regular readers know this already and most of you would agree to John’s idea that you should blog about the things that you are really passionate about, we feel so connected to that person because it shows in his/her writings. Once you get connected to the person, you start trusting that person and they become your regular readers, there may be possibility that some people may not agree to your idea and would not like to trust you and so next time they will not come to your blog to read your articles.

Sometimes you hear logical reasons from people when you ask them why visit so and so’s blog, they will have number of reasons to say, that the information is great, they feel connected to the person writing the blog, they relate their stories to the story given in blog, etc. human beings are irrational and get emotional often we have seen marketers experience this often. People visit blogs which are more subjective in nature, we might not realize this but indirectly we agree to the blogger’s ideas, their opinions, their views and their beliefs. Below given are some of the things that you can keep in mind and start doing:

1. Share your ideas with others and give views or opinions to others regarding whatever you feel about a particular thing. When you are giving information over the blog make sure that you state your views, also don’t forget to include the ideas about particular topic you strongly feel about. Start giving straight opinions regarding a particular topic without feeling anything, follow your mind and speak out. when you give out strong opinions over the site they become your pillars of support.
2. Along with the blogs that you write you can also include some short stories relating to you over the blog that would make your blog really special because it has your personal touch. May whatever you might be writing about, make sure to add a little personal touch by including your little stories of your ideas or experiences or dealings in the past, we know that people love to read ideas or stories, so you go ahead in writing and let them enjoy your stories.
3. When people disagree with you on some point, don’t apologize for the same as you have written what you believe in. whenever you say people disagree with you or have negative feelings about you then you got to celebrate as per John Chow’s advice, whenever people go against you remember that you are doing great job for this reason they want to stop you.

When you have respect for yourself and you thoroughly believe in what you write then it should not make any sense to you whether people might speak positive or negative about you. Don’t be of double-minded stay on one particular thing you believe in and state it on your blog without any fears, don’t become weak by anyone’s opinion stay by the truth that you believe and if possible make them agree to your point of view by giving an example which they will like and which relates to them. Don’t ever make them feel about your wavering opinion instead be confident and face everything straight from hear.

There could be similar like minded individuals like that of your, these are the people who feel connected to you and they feel so close to you because of your statements in the blog. These people will focus on your opinions and you will get good attention from them.

In today’s fast paced world we are online most of the time, our work insists us to be online, our relatives insists us to be online, there are so many responsibilities that we take up online and fulfill online, Internet today has become like a second life so how do we live this life, being in a virtual world, yet so lively and energetic you can reach someone who is overseas. So how are we planning to spend our online time which most of the time goes in work and rest 5% being left for our personal purposes, can we share a piece of kindness that will make one person’s day or a nice evening, can you help cheer up a person who has just lost his beloved, there are so many things you can do online which a person sitting besides cannot do. The biggest advantage is you are not seeing anyone, its all virtual talk, by just spreading a smile over Internet affects so many individuals who are directly or indirectly connected.

We have come across so many social media sites, have you ever noticed the way they interact with each other, they are basically trained to talk cautiously not hurting someone’s emotions, or a polished language which will create a long lasting impression on the other individual. Our inner aura tells us to be special someone and helps someone to be special that is not only going to affect or do good to you but the whole economy. As per the research online, it states that a word of kindness works wonders and makes other feel good about it and at the same time you are building up your own personal brand equity.

Although you might be connected to the world through internet but you might be isolated in the darkest corner of the virtual world, being in front of the computer doesn’t mean that you are very busy with people, people experience some type of isolation at least some point of time this is the reason why social media are so popular that gives people solace and human connection so you might have notices how they give excellent responses to warm welcomes, personal notes, support, etc. if you be kind to others that is not going to cost you much, and online is still more easier as you need not necessarily have that kind face but talk heart to heart. Given below are some of the points which you can make a note of and earn bonus points

1. Smile is one of the biggest assets you have which doesn’t cost anyone anything, try to spread a smile over Internet through online emoticons and different smiley icons, make more positive statements which will make your peers day. You don’t have to have a real stylish or an obsessed language just a simple smile does the tricks.
2. Try and show as much of affection and praise your colleagues over good work in office, even if its just one online greeting. Comment on nice blogs and see the people getting more interested in their work. If you have close relations with peers online then you can send physical affection through emoticons like “hugs”, “xoxo”, or giving “high five”, these things will surely make someone feel really special.
3. Using kind words over Internet spreads a feeling of togetherness, make your friend feel special by sending a special note online, send requests for joining your online community which will help all of your friends to come under one group, using terms like “bro”, “brother”, “buddy”, “mate”, “dude”, “man” generates a feeling of togetherness amongst people online.
4. Responding is the main key in building relationships, when someone has called you by name over Internet it is obvious that they are thinking of you and would like to extend hands for friendship, if you respond then friendship grows further and builds good connections. This way you can increase your network over net and as you have more people to connect to, it might be difficult to respond everyone but you can still try harder to respond each of them that will culprit good relations in future.
5. Appreciate for good things that have happened and express a feeling of thankfulness whenever possible, you can thank people for their good deeds. A word of appreciation will make them feel good about themselves and everything around them. You can thank them through e-emails, mailers, business inquiry, social networking sites, etc.
6. If you feel that what other person is saying, agree to it, don’t divulge yourself from accepting the facts of life. When a person is speaking openly to audience, it means that he really has got some point to speak and that they are looking for support from people like you. Let them know, that you agree to what they are saying, it is effortless and doesn’t cost you pocket.
7. Make people feel special and good look, everybody likes to be highlighted in front of other with good talks about them and good work done by them. This way you will be able to create a strong mutual bond with that person, so both the ways it’s a win-win situation.
8. Help other to people to get rid of problems if you want to earn big points in this too, then be the person who helps the people from other community too. You can offer free technical help, or inform them about the sites for the services they are looking for, doing this people would fully be grateful to you and see you as a different person altogether so the next time you need any help they will surely be there to offer their best.
9. Avoid the environment of negativity and stop criticizing, it’s easy to criticize a person who doesn’t agree with you for short period of time you might gather sympathy of others and score a nice few points but people who would otherwise prefer not to speak will start associating you with a negative person, they will start seeing you as a bad mouther or a person speaking crank, etc.
   So be true to yourself, and help people come out of a problem and if they are not agreeing to what you say then make ways which can let them understand your point of view but don’t criticize. Create good environment of positivist and build relationships.
10. Stay by your promises and be sincere to it, make promises if you can fulfill them in future don’t just win the trust of others by saying a promise, do it practically. If you know, the project is going to keep you busy next week and at the same time you need to assure a person of something then don’t promise anything unless you make sure that you are going to fulfill it. Win friends not their wrath by not fulfilling your promises, its better to not promise rather than not fulfilling it.
11. Spreading kindness doesn’t mean that you have a cover of fakeness. Be yourself and show your natural self to others rather than trying to pretend or be someone. You just need to be conscious of what you speak with others don’t make feel other deceived or insulted is that what I ask from you. We have seen majority of people follow the people who are friendly with a strength of knowledge, intelligence and authority and also having kindness, tact of handling things and humility.
12. Kindness is not at all fakeness, it’s a feeling that you shower upon for those you care for and show consideration for others, it’s a powerful and civilized way to respect others. It doesn’t cost you anything and easy to implement, make a difference today.

Customers would not like to be lied from sellers, so they become a bit hesitant in understanding or believing you of what you are claiming of the product, no one would like to have their feelings exploited so the customers become a bit wary of accepting things and trusting you, it is natural for them to behave that way because they might have been fooled in the past and are being cautious this time so that they are not fooled this time around.

We know that life is not easy as it seems to be, it’s a defense mechanism which is meant for self preservation with the life which is so brutal and short. People are just fed up with sledge hammer pitches and hard selling everywhere, they are just fed up of their routine glitches on a day to day basis, as they face the hard shelled life outside they only go on to become more stronger and the plaster of bad experiences cover them up.
