Do you want to read your readers' minds? There are certain advantages. It is less complicated than you might initially imagine.

No, this is not a post to turn you into a mentalist. It is more about explaining a curious “phenomenon” (and not so curious if you think about it) when you have been blogging for several years. “You have read my mind” is a comment that I have been frequently asked lately.

It often comes up when I touch on a subject that a person is currently mulling over. Some readers have even written to me about it more than once, so they are starting to get a little worried about my potential ability to get inside their heads and spy on their thoughts.
I wish I had that ability (or better not now that I think japanese mobile number list about it). I am very far from knowing what a person thinks. The explanation behind this “phenomenon” is much simpler.

Write a lot and sometimes you will get it right
One of my mottos in the blogging world is that you shouldn't let a day go by without creating some kind of content that can leave an impression on others. It has become an obsession. I don't see it as a negative thing because it is a very powerful source of energy that allows you to reach goals that others don't reach due to lack of drive. I publish 1 post a day on this blog but in reality I generate about 10-12 new pieces of content each day in the form of text, video or presentation. Sooner or later you have to get it right. You will have hit the nail on the head by touching on a topic that your blog readers were mulling over.
Analyze with data and read between the lines of your comments
Comments are one of my favorite topics on this blog. I'm turning it into my personal science because I'm convinced that they play an essential role in building a community around your blog. In the comments you'll find not only valuable direct feedback but also information that you can extract by reading between the lines . I'm lucky enough to combine creativity (some days more than others) with data analysis. In this way I try to anticipate, touching on topics even before the reader knows they're interested in them. I don't like to write about what everyone else is talking about. That's what other blogs are for. I want to bring a different point of view.
