Ever find yourself doing something as silly as posting on your blog? I know I have. Here are ten easy, guilt-free ways to talk yourself out of making a post:

1. “My blog traffic is already skyrocketing!”
Because who needs to post when you’ve already had 1000 visitors that day?
2. “I can always do it tomorrow”
The procrastinator’s greatest weapon - playing the tomorrow card.
3. “I’m way too tired! Sitting on my couch all day was EXHAUSTING”
Blogging clearly takes great mental, physical, and emotional effort. Why bother if you’re already tired?
4. “Why blog when I can _______?”
Find alternatives!
5. “My post probably won’t be that good anyway.”
The statement that makes you fail before you’ve even began (and subsequently failed).
6. “Blogging definitely isn’t as important as ________”
A few options to help you fill the blank: playing video games, sleeping, watching TV, making pancakes, raiding with your WoW guild, etc.
7. “Someone already posted about my idea!”
Note: practically nothing is original anymore.
8. “I’ll do it a bit later today.”
A variation on the always good “I’ll do it tommorow.”
9. “My blog sucks anyway”
…and low self-esteem will make it even worse!
10. “Well, I doasghtjyk,gyfkdtjsrtttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt”
The option for when you fall asleep on your keyboard.
