12 Remarkable Influencers You'll Love

There are so many amazing influencers in the blogosphere. I've learned that some influencers don't use blogs, however in the #MJconsistencychallenge created by influencer maven Mattie James, I'm learning the importance of still having a blog.

I participated in Matti's May challenge which encouraged participants to post to their Instagram every single day. I made it through {big smile} and it helped me to grow the muscle that inspired me to not just post anything, but things relevant to my brand. I have to admit, it's still hard for me to think of myself as a brand. But considering my goals to monetize my blog and The Love Channel with Ty collectively with other business ideas I have on my mind, it's an important mind set to have over just posting just to post. I have my work cut out for me, but I 'm here for it.

The July challenge is to post to our blog's Monday through Friday. Whew, that's a lot of work. I both slid out of my chair like George Constanza's mom when George was found guilty in that Seinfeld season finale, lol. But I also felt like, "Ty you can stand to strengthen this muscle. Go for it!" So here I am day five of week one and I thinking ok, ok. I can do this.

Now I have to admit, I've never been at my laptop so much in my life, lol. Oh my gosh. It's so worth it and such a small price to pay for working on making dreams come true. So I bought myself some fresh fruit and fresh flowers this week just to give myself a prettier view while at my laptop and the fresh fruit was needed because I LOVE to snack while I'm working. Plus I have this whole Summer of Self Love menu I'm sticking to this month which requires healthy snacks only.

On top of blogging five days a week, it's tough not to check out all of the other amazing influencers that are doing the challenge. There are so many amazing influencers out there you guys. It's like reading a great book. Stay tuned the first Friday of each month as I'll share more remarkable influencers you're sure to love.
