How do You Create Good Material for Your Blogs?


This is a subject that drives many good and professional writes up a wall, where do l find new material that is different and my readers will enjoy what l write about.  We have all looked at our screens and been lost for words, nothing that you write impresses you at all, we all have days like that.  Your full of energy, but the mind is not providing any new material what so ever.

Where l get most of my material from or ideas is watching my kids at practice, whether its soccer, hockey or in the gym.  Kids are so creative and full of ideas, if you ever actually watch and listen to them you will have more writing material then you can handle.  We all fail to realize that kids have no boundaries; they still have the ability to dream about someone or something special in life.  When they are with a group of our kids, just listen too them, you will be very surprise at the amount of knowledge that our children really have. 

When l am watching them l always walk away shocked and surprised about something that l heard or seen and never even though about what l just had witness.  The ability that some kids have is honestly remarkable for such a young age, how they handle them self's and the replies you get from them can be very interesting if you only listen to what they are saying.  I spend a lot time with my son in my vehicle, coming home from a game or practice just him and me for approximately an hour if it's a game.  The time we leave that town until we get home is time l would never trade with anyone in life or be able to put a price tag on this quality time l had to spend with my son or daughter.

The trip always starts the same way, we are both quite and l normally wait for him to say something 5 minutes into our trip home l hear "You know Dad"...........bingo the lesson has began, he starts to talk about what ever, the game he played, this and that school and so on......Wow l say to myself and l always answer his question with a question to keep the flow of the conversation alive.  Where l got the idea for the Group....."Becoming the Best You can Be",  

When was the last time you really paid close attention to what your children are interested or talking about? The funny thing is before you know it they are gone to College or where ever. I always tell my son life is filled with windows of opportunities. Then he always replies with the example of when he was playing House League got called up to the Rep Team, because the other goalie got hurt played so well that he got to stay with the Rep Team and this year playing at a higher level then last year.  He seen the window open and decide to take advantage of the opportunity again all because l planted a though in his mind.  That you can have anything you want in life if you have the desire to learn and become the best you can be, its hard work why it is so rewarding to accomplish your goals in life.

So this is how l get my material for my blogs and articles that l write, try and see what your children can teach you l think you will be very shocked and very impressed at the same time..
