Comments on: Blogging Is Like Going To The Gym…For Your Brain http://thefuturebuzz.com/2009/01/06/blogging-gym-brain-boost/ Adam Singer on media, marketing and PR Fri, 19 Mar 2010 10:42:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: jan geronimo http://thefuturebuzz.com/2009/01/06/blogging-gym-brain-boost/#comment-27500 jan geronimo Tue, 12 Jan 2010 16:09:28 +0000 http://thefuturebuzz.com/?p=778#comment-27500 It's easy to dismiss online activities as anathema to an introspective life. To a certain extent yes, if we let ourselves get consumed by distractions. And yet blogging/writing is precisely the tool for reflection. That's a great point you've raised. Nothing could be truer.

I recall someone saying, motivation is like bath, that's why we recommend it often. :) There’s no secret; blogging is like exercising, the more you work at it, the better you become.

Bullseye! A few more similarities... ~Blogging and going to the gym both feel good once you're in the habit of doing them, but if you miss a few days or a week, it can be painful to start back up again ~Blogging and going to the gym are both good ways to connect with other like-minded souls, people with similar goals and interests ~Blogging and going to the gym can both be sidelined by Twitter. As much as I love Twitter, spending too much time Tweeting can burn me out on social media, leaving my blog high and dry. And I've definitely missed workouts at the gym because of too much time on Twitter, as well~ ~For me personally, blogging and going to the gym are both best done first thing in the morning, way early, before work or starting my day. Thanks again for the great post and the challenge on Twitter. I'm taking you up on it for February! Adam, I love this analogy. Bullseye! A few more similarities…

I revived my love/hate relationship with the gym yesterday - very little love and overwhelming nausea. And although I felt much better today, I can safely say that I've never felt physically ill about my posts ;) Here’s a big difference.
