How To Create Self Awareness
~5.1 mins read
This blog post is based on this question "Is there anything a person can do to gain greater self awareness? What has worked for me?
Gaining greater self awareness depends on what you mean by that or what you have in mind to achieve.
Gaining greater self awareness on your business, career or life needs promotion and exhibition of work especially on social media.
Social media is a major medium for creating awareness. It's also a business that has unlimited potential with a client base that span across the world. This trend is unlikely to die soon, if ever and new platforms are being released every year, making the possibilities of expansion limitless, that's why I advice people to invest in it because it pays sooner or later in future.
I make use social media platforms for self awareness and it's really helping me because it has brought me to this level and will still take me far more than I can think of by God's grace.
There are a lot of social media platforms you can use to create awareness like facebook, tweeter,instagram, Quora,linkedln etc depending on the field you want to promote.
I have read a lot of articles and blog post on how to get traffic for your website, people have different ideas and similar opinions on how to drive traffic for a blog, but I believe everyone is writing according to their experience and what has worked for them. There are a lot of website and blog of different niche on internet that's why there is competition and getting traffic is very difficult for new bloggers, because of that some end up giving up and deleting their blog.
How to create self awareness for your blog according to my experience and what has been working for me.
For a new blog, start first to choose wisely by creating a fan page on any social media platforms where your target audience is active, so that you can share your blog post there and get at least few visitors to your blog.
If possible first build and grow your fan page to create awareness for your blog which is what I did that's why I opened my Facebook page before my blog. I started my Facebook page with my friends before inviting my other Facebook friends to join tho is not everyone that accepted my invite which is normal so you should have that in mind and don't think is not working out. Have other social media account to promote and create awareness for your blog and don't depend on only one platform.
The next step is putting effort in creating titles for your blog post because they are very important and not just the content. Titles entice readers whether to click and read more to know the content of the post.
Consistency and quality content also matters. You can have a fixed schedule of how to run your blog for easy organization, identification and consistency.
Build a database of email address to keep the communication flowing between you and your audience. Encourage your audience to subscribe to your email and follow your blog to help stay in touch.
Engage in conversations, share your knowledge and content related to your topic. Collaborate with other bloggers and experts, interact with them by following, visiting and reading other blogs of different niche. Learn to like and leave a comment on any post because is a way of reaching other audience and letting them reach you. Sincerely, this works because I tried it and is working for me.
You can also add short videos to supplement your blog post, it can drive a lot of traffic especially when it goes viral and add photos to compliment your blog post for visual purposes and clarification based on the post. Including keywords in the Alt image tag on the photos help boost blog post on search engine optimization (SEO).
Learn to appreciate your audience and let them know that you are grateful, you care about them and their opinions. Say thank you and can even engage conversations with them.
Create give away events for them to win prizes for commenting, sharing blog post and being active on your blog. You can provide prizes yourself or raise funds by inviting other individuals and companies to donate or sponsor your event.
Writing a book or an e_ book will help you create self awareness for your blog as an expert. You can also invite guest contributors to your blog and try to be a guest blogger for other website depending on your niche, this helps to find new audience and to drive traffic from other websites.
Honestly, finding websites for guest blogging is difficult due to a lot of terms and policies that might not suit yours because I have tried countless times tho I was once a guest blogger for naiji.com before they created another website for guest bloggers which is legit.com. maybe you can try applying for their website. This was my first article https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1838934439651546&id=1776859119192412
Always try new other new things and not just blogging to create media presence. Be ready to expose yourself to new audience by finding other similar or related things to do like vlogging, podcast show, radio, TV shows etc. I already have a podcast of my own on podbean after taking a podcast course on future learn but is kind of inactive because I want to launch it first on a radio so that I can use it for vlogging.
For me I promote my blog on Facebook, tweeter, Quora as a writer and also create self awareness on Instagram and other platforms available. I have started advertising my page and website on Facebook and Instagram using my little resources and I will advice you to do the same, make use of the opportunities you have on social media for your blog.
Is not up to a year I started blogging because is just my six months of blogging and I have been seeing results of my hardwork, I really appreciate God for putting me on the right path and establishing my plan
Finally, always read and keep reading to gain more knowledge and meet up the competition. Learn more about blogging and practice what you have learnt to know what works for you on your niche. I have a blog post I wrote on habits that can be of help http://adioneconstance.blogspot.com/2019/02/the-best-habits-that-i-suggest-for-you.html.

6 Simple Reading Strategies For Student
~3.5 mins read
I must say that reading is something we do in our everyday life whether you are a student or in the labour force. You will observe that a day can't pass without you reading something which must not necessary be a book. Example it can be a bill board on the road, a message in your phone, a newspaper, an advert on TV etc. We do these things at easy on our own comfort without any difficulties but as a student there is a lot more than that. Reading as a student requires self discipline and determination to make efforts to achieve your goal. In this article is the six simple reading strategies for students that will help to guide you.
In school, students need to learn and remember facts in order to reason and understand them. Students in the course of their development learn several skills as assessing themselves to see if they are understanding, and working out how much time they will need to study something to enable them choose an effective plan of attack to study or solve problems. A student, involves his/her capabilities, knowledge and experiences in the act of reading and for him/her to comprehend what is being read. The following are Strategies used for effective reading.
Motivation
Motivation is one of the most prerequisite for learning. A student must have either an interest or a reason why he /she wants to read. it is this motivation that will serve as the driving force that fuels his/her intentions to read and comprehend it also helps the student to concentrate and will retain the interest of the student. Teachers need to know ways and means of encouraging students learning and ways of motivating them. However, students differ so much in what will motivate them.
Goal setting
Before setting your goal, you need to ask yourself some questions. Why do I want to read? Is it for fun, Is it because my teacher asked me to do so, Is it because am bored, Is it because I want to gain knowledge or to pass an exam etc depending on whatever it is. Your purpose for reading helps you to determine a reading schedule and how serious you will take it. This way a student can learn to read faster and also develop a reading culture. Most students without a reading culture have ended up performing poorly in their examination. It takes discipline and determination to develop a reading culture and also to focus on your goal.
Conducive environment
Find a conducive environment that suits you when reading to avoid distractions so you can take your time and feel relaxed to observe carefully the points that can help you understand what you are reading. Your environment or what happened in your environment while reading can also help to recall what you read when you remember it tho it doesn't work for everyone.
Areas of interest
This question"where do I begin" is always in mind when you want to read a book especially if you don't have any topic in mind. You don't have to read a book straight starting from page one. Start anywhere or begin with a familiar topic or interesting part of the book to avoid boredom and lack of interest to enable you achieve the goal of reading. This will help you keep the zeal burning to finish that particular book.
Visualization
Try to pause for a while and interpret what the passage is all about by asking yourself a few questions like how, why, when and what does the writer mean if necessary. This requires imagination to help you visualize your reading using visual imagery to picture whatever you have read. Applying the meaning to teal life situations can also help to understand and realize some other things you didn't notice at the beginning.
Memorization
This requires frequent assessment and practice to enable you to remember what has been read. You can also write a summary of what you read in your own words and try to teach other people to help you commit what you have read to memory, Which is when the information read is transferred from short term memory to long term memory.
All these points listed might not work for everyone especially if you have tried it but sincerely it affects everyone as a student in one way or the other if you have noticed. The only thing I can say is, self discipline is very necessary to achieve your goal if you are really determined to make it.
