I'm recently out of grad school and starting two businesses at once - my psychotherapy practice, and a creativity organization through which I create public art and give workshops on creativity and manifestation. It's exciting to be out in the "real world" and I've been drinking in lots of web content on marketing / social media / law of attraction, etc, as I teach myself how to make my businesses work. At first it was depressing, finding sites that had some good info, but the whole design of the site was SUCH CRAP, omg, it looked like it was churned out in 5 minutes, with lots of special deals outlined in red, etc. And then certain twitter feeds, chock full of affiliate links and devoid of a human personality! It made me anxious - omg! Is this how the real world works? Do I need to be tweeting out useful articles 10x / day?? Even though I started and sold a successful small business a little over a year ago, I feel new to marketing and business, in general. There is always so much to learn! So I realized that there's a lot I don't know but seeing these sites that want to sell me something through making me feel anxious, I thought to myself, that can't be the only way to succeed, and if it is, I don't want to work like that, anyway! And with one of my businesses being therapy, it's really dumb to try to get clients by making them feel anxious! Therapy is a business that literally runs on integrity. I recently put my psychotherapy site online (www.heartpsychotherapy.com) and was feeling a little worried about how long it took me to create, but ultimately I knew I had to do it the way that felt right for me, and since I'm creating something really important, I wanted to do it right. So thank you for this post - it reinforces an intuition that I felt a little alone in, and gives me hope that my personal style of quality over quantity will indeed get me somewhere :) I’m so happy to read this article and find your blog!

I ended up watching the whole thing and got some great tips. I particularly like Tim's suggestion to break traditional blogging rules and also to emphasize posts of passion. Glen,
