Do You See the Blogging World through Your Pinhole of Ignorance? |

Look closely at that smiling kisser above.

I smiled just like that as I wrote the words below.

I offer this guidance in the spirit of love.

However, I pull no punches in doing so.

I get messages from well-meaning bloggers daily.

Bloggers – or specialists – claim that I make a litany of errors. I went pro almost 17 years ago. I live my dreams through blogging. Freedom from time and location is mine. 80,000 backlinks point to Blogging From Paradise Dot Com. I work 25 marketing channels. Some claim my life is movie-worthy. I am happy. I feel at peace. I made it on a worldly level many years ago.

But misunderstanding bloggers make a critical error. None of those facts are reality to them. Each prefers to exist in their own, little, ignorant fantasy-land of unreality.

Most perceive the world through their personal pinhole of:

fear
poverty
loss
scarcity
ignorance
close-mindedness

I will give you a clear example.

Read ‘Em Folks

Some of the 25 marketing channels I work yield scant metrics. Pinhole-minded specialists warn me that I am wasting my time and failing horribly via these channels *but they only look at one or two and never understand that I work 25*. It is they who waste their time and fail horribly reaching out to a blogger who went pro almost 17 years ago.

If each wandered outside of their own pinhole, they would experience reality: on various days, a lot of people see my blog through 80,000 backlinks and 25 marketing channels. A LOT.

That’s the problem with pinhole-minded bloggers who think impossibly narrow: you see one channel but ignore the other 24. Never mind ignoring the 80,000 backlinks pointing back to my blog. Never mind that I went full-time almost 20 years ago. Each perceives struggle by someone who left it behind 20 years ago because each their struggles in their own ignorance. We see the world as we see ourselves.

But here is the most important point: I wrote this blog post for you not me.

I Proved Myself Nearly Decades Ago

I already went pro nearly decades ago. I have nothing left to prove. I feel free. I have experienced enough. Done. Complete. All set. Satiated. I owe nothing. I teach how to blog successfully for those who desire my guidance. That’s it. Since I love you I need nothing from you because I have no expectations of you, nor is our relationship based on any conditions in my mind. Easy come. Easy go. Peace. Love.

I published this post with a few humble metrics for you, the struggling bloggers willing to look directly in the mirror, head on, being fully ready to own the poverty, pinhole-minded approach wasting time, work and consuming your peace of mind.

I proved myself.

Now it is time for you to prove to yourself: a better way exists.

So, when you realize that 80,000 backlinks point back to my blog…..a few thoughts surface in your mind:

“This guy ain’t struggling!”
“I’m struggling by telling a guy who ain’t struggling that he is struggling and needs my services!”

Most human beings run away from their mind. This post reminds you; gently ease into the mind for answers to all blogging questions, for solutions to all blogging struggles and for liberation.

How Ignorance Works

Ignorance sees through a pinhole.

Imagine a specialist who stumbles upon one of my marketing channels. He sees little engagement. He assumes that this is the only marketing channel that I work. He assumes that since this singular marketing channel yields scant engagement that obviously I struggle horribly. Maybe I am a liar. Maybe he is right. Maybe he is the successful one. Maybe I am the fraud.

Yes; of course many have lobbed these amusing claims my way. Ignorance knows it all, all of the time, being steeped in wisdom, cloaked with experience and as open-minded as an ascended master, as poised as a Buddhist monk.

Ball-busting aside, the message here is incredibly important.

Step Outside of the Illusion into Truth

Until you step outside of your mental pinhole, that impossibly small world is reality for you. Or it is your truth.

Reality may shock you.

The truth may floor you.

I shudder to think how many 1000’s of bloggers wasted years of their lives pitching me their services since 2010 when I was having a fun, good old time doing A-OK with my blog.

Right now, and going forward, 100’s of backlink building specialists living in their pinhole – like a horse wearing blinders – harbor a truly incredible thought:

“I better pitch this guy my backlink building services. He needs it.”

Reality?

80,000 backlinks point to Blogging From Paradise Dot Com.

Neil Patel points backlinks to my blog. John Chow points backlinks to my blog. Fox News points backlinks to my blog.

The truth ain’t bragging but it may force you to change your failing strategy, right?

Ignorance works that way. Pinhole-thinking assumes that a blogger with 80,000 backlinks from some of the top bloggers on earth needs you and your backlink building services because I am obviously struggling horribly within your pinhole thinking. I mean, you came across one of my 25 marketing channels, saw little engagement, and knew that I was wasting my time, right?

Again, I need to bust balls here and there because some need a cyber slap upside the head to wake up, laugh and say:

“Yes Ryan; I really needed to hear this lesson today. I am making a big-time mistake. I will correct it. Thank You!”

Success Story from Spam Beat Down

One wildly successful stylist messaged me a few years back.

He offered sincere gratitude for the blunt but clearly helpful message I sent him a long time ago. He spammed me his business link a few times. I explained how spamming leads to nowhere but sharing helpful content and building genuine bonds leads you to infinite possibilities. He listened with gratitude. He followed my advice. Now he is incredibly successful based on following my advice.

He had the balls to look himself in the mirror.

He owned his errors.

He followed my guidance.

Sure as hell didn’t hurt him, did it?
