Bloggers can look at ways to develop content based on trending topics. A blogger can seek to keep their audience engaged by addressing issues that are of concern to them. They can attempt to learn more about the type of subjects that the viewer can find interesting. A blogger can respond to the concerns of their readers and examine how to develop blog posts that can be read by a larger audience.

• Social  

A blogger can utilize various third party providers, that can allow them search social media platforms for topics that are trending. Based on the unique features of the providers, a blogger can test what ones would be most appropriate for their needs. The author could search for specific words to see if the subjects they would prefer to write about have a correlated popular topic already being shared or discussed.

They can take care to find information that applies to the blogs theme and their viewer’s interests. Instead of just writing about something that is generally trending, they need to find a way to frame it in relation to their previous content. If their blog subject matter is trending then they can examine what are the ways it is being discussed. If it is appropriate to their theme, they then can develop content using keywords and blog titles that might benefit from the searches of a more diverse audience.

• Data

Bloggers can review their own data to find trending information that might be appealing to a larger group. They can use their own blog to find topics for blog posts that can be of interest to their general readership. In this way they can identify recently asked questions or stated comments posted to them by current readers. These topics could have a larger impact due to the fact that if one person is interested, it could be of interest to many more.

They can reframe the question or question into a blog post and seek to explain the answer and provide relevant information that might be correlated with the question. Rather than only answering an individual they can appeal to more people by explaining something in a blog post format. The idea of tends can mean to identify information that is currently of interest to someone. Using their own readers to gauge what they have more interests or questions about, can allow them to directly target the concerns and possibly increase visitors loyalty.

• Search

A blogger can review various popular search providers that they estimate to have large user groups. They can find out if the particular platforms provide information about what is the more popular search terms based on their audience preferences. The blogger can review the listing and decide if there is appropriate content that can be related to their visitors. Not all trending topics can appeal to their readers based on audience preferences. The blogger can use analytical data to get a more complete picture of the type of user who visits their blog. They can perform surveys and ask for viewers to list out popular platforms they use. The blogger then could find if these platforms offer trending lists that they can periodically review to find possible blog post content.

Some bloggers can attempt to relate any widely searched on topic back to their blog to reach a more diverse audience. They will search for the platforms with the largest audience based on their own opinion. Then they can review whatever is more popular on a daily or weekly basis and seek to frame the subject based on their own unique interpretation. If readers find value in their approach to generally popular subjects, they might be able to grow their audience by attempting this subject identification method.

• Blogs

Writers can identify different blogs in their subject’s space. If they are trying to grow the blogs audience, they can review the concepts that others have presented. They can try and think how to approach the subjects that are of interests to other from their own unique angle. Certain topics might be affecting a specific field and if they can present a new take on a widely discussed topic, they might be able to gain readers by their insights. Instead of trying to provide already written about content, they can find ways to connect disparate ideas in a novel way that could satisfy viewer’s intent for being interested in a particular topic. Their advantage is to present a totally new take on a popular subject. If they can accomplish this, they can be seen as an authority on a particular viewpoint and strengthen their audience loyalty based on their content. For example, at resumes.expert blog you can find fresh topics for resume writing thematics which are used there at the new angle.

• Sites

Bloggers can schedule review sessions of question and answer sites. They can specify certain time periods to ensure that specific questions are based on a time sensitive approach. If they can identify topics that they have the ability to answer and expand on, they could create a blog post. These sites can give blogger an inside view on what different people are seeking information on. They can then find ways to present their information in a compelling manner.

To increase the urgency of the feel of the blog post, they can slant their commentary towards the time sensitive nature of a particular topic. This could increase the chance that people can be motivated to learn more about whatever is being presented by the author. For topics that resonate with reader, they can think about how to divide the blog post concepts into separate posts based on another qualifying metrics such as user location. In this way, they can cover many angles of the story and appeal to different viewer segments. 

The blogger can use various methods as tools to create posts that can resonate with their readers. It can be important to find issues that are of direct interest to the viewer. Having this type of information, the blogger can then relate the topic to their blogs theme and deliver engaging content for their visitors.

Dating a strong personality has its perks. A strong personality, a true leader is driven and  likely to succeed in life. They know exactly the right thing to do at the moment. Even if it’s not always exactly the right thing to do, that confidence is always there. They know what they want, and they go out and get it.

Some people love this strong personality. For me and my personality, I found it made me a weaker person.

THEY SAID WHAT  WAS ON THEIR MIND

The filter of appropriate conversation seemed somewhat limited when dating a strong personality. The same great thing about that personality strength is also the biggest weakness: having an opinion and sharing it under all circumstances. If I didn’t meet expectations in some way, I’d know about it. If I made a mistake, I’d know that too.

Some people like relationships where both partners are saying exactly what’s on their mind. Takes all the relationship games out of it. I found it just a little too blunt for my liking, and it weighed on me.

THEY WEREN’T AFRAID TO WALK AWAY

One thing I absolutely couldn’t handle was knowing that walking away would be so easy for them. It always seemed though once things weren’t working out for them anymore, they’d be on the move. This stopped be from getting fully invested, just in case.

It may not have actually been that easy for them to walk away, relationships are complicated, but it sure appeared it was. That was enough to make me a little insecure. Being insecure is no place for you to be in a relationship. It will doom you from the start.

STRONG  PERSONALITIES SOCIALIZE WITH STRONG PERSONALITIES

Like-minded people tend to socialize with each other. This often meant I was surrounded by groups of people with strong traits. This normally isn’t so bad, but by dating one of the group, you hear everything they say and magnify it.

You need to have a tough skin to deal with some of the realities of these conversations. I’m not talking about cheating or inappropriate talk, but just understanding they have a life beyond you. That includes knowing that some of the best things in their life may not always be you.

Being in groups of strong personalities brings me to my next point:

I WAS OFTEN THE SECOND FIDDLE

They’ll be the life of the party – all the time. They want to be in the middle of everything, dominating conversation. That’s ok. Just be prepared to be pushed aside from time to time.

Not literally of course. I can’t imagine a scenario where I tried to be part of the conversation and I was literally shoved aside. In fact, they’d love it if I was involved more. I’m just not the type that likes to interject in conversation that way.

VERY SELF SUFFICIENT

Lastly, they’re self-sufficient. They don’t need your help, and they won’t ask for it very often. If you like to nurture people, you’re going to have a tough time here. You’ll have to set aside trying to be helpful all the time and just understand that even if it might be easier if you help, they want to do it on their own.

Dating a strong person isn’t a bad thing. It’s just not for everyone. I’m well aware that many of these shortcomings aren’t those of the strong personality – they’re mine.

Marilyn Monroe once said that, “I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right.”

People perceive Marilyn Monroe, or at least the memory of her, quite differently. But despite these conflicting theories and opinions, we know one thing about her for sure, that while she was a strong, independent woman of her time who was acknowledged to be the most beautiful of them all, she still had her fair share of failed relationships.

Nobody escapes the fangs of a failed romance, not even celebrities. But instead of wallowing from pain and letting it ruin your life, take a step back and learn  from trying to please other people instead of addressing your own concerns. Is he or she worth it?

Lack of Communication

Communication  is important to establish and maintain a relationship. A healthy dose of confrontations, fights, and cool offs are signs that there is clear and honest communication between two partners. When two people are honest with each other, there is going to be some sort of misunderstanding and that is okay. When you are able to communicate your thoughts and feelings toward the other person, you will be able to fix things and even reestablish a stronger relationship.

If you date a weak person, he or she will not have the courage to be honest with you fearing that it might lead to a confrontation, fight, or a cool off – and that is pretty unhealthy. Sooner or later, they are going to break if they do not learn how to bend. In the end, you either end up breaking up or unhappily staying together.

 

They Value Pride More  Than the Relationship

Relationships are a give and take agreement between two people, which means there will be a point that one of you will have to consider the other and  what they need versus what you need. Being in a relationship means swallowing your pride once in a while so you can maintain a happy and healthy relationship, where both of you are able to give without expecting anything in return and take because the other is willing to give.

If you date a weak person, he or she will not succumb to your needs if they think that theirs are more important. Swallowing your pride does not make you weak. In fact, it makes you a strong, more reasonable person. This is a perception people in a relationship have to understand or constantly remind themselves about.

They Do Not Own Up to  Their Mistakes

When relationships fail, it is not because one has made a mistake. It is always a mutual responsibility to establish and maintain it which means both parties have to strive hard to keep it real and happy. In instances when you know for sure that you have made a mistake, do not be scared to admit to your fault. When you explain the matter thoroughly to the other, there is a chance that the issue will be addressed as compared to fighting and pointing fingers at each other.

If you date a weak person, he or she will never be brave enough to own up to their mistakes and will continue to point fingers because that is the easiest way out of the problem. This is not only a sign of cowardice, it is also egotistical and very immature. There is no future with a person like this one unless they try hard to change for the better.

 

You Cannot Depend On  Them

While being in a relationship is more of because you want to be the person, there is nothing wrong to need them once in a while. After all, they are supposed to be both our lovers and friends. There is always going to be an emergency regardless of the degree and you should be able to find solace with the other person because you trust and believe them to carry your pain with you and find ways with you to resolve it accordingly. In these moments of weakness, the other must be the source of strength.

If you date a weak person, you are never going to be able to depend on them because they will always have their own burden to carry. Weak persons are never going to set aside their own responsibilities in the meantime to focus on yours because they are not strong enough to share your problems. The worse part is, it is not just because you cannot rely on them but because they do not want you to rely on them. And that makes all the difference.

They Are Only There  When It is Convenient

Being in a relationship means you are assured to have a partner through thick and thin who will go through the good and bad times with you – sometimes even for you. No matter how inconvenient it could get, lovers and partners are willing to come out of their comfort zone to be able to be with the other and make them happy. This includes being with you when time and distance prove to be impossible.

If you date a weak person, they will only be available when it is convenient for them. Their call. It could be because they are busy with other things regardless of importance. And it should be okay once in a while but if they are never available at times when you need them the most, take a step back and see if you are the only one who is giving in the relationship without taking anything from the other person. Again, there should not be any expectation but if you were in their shoes, you would, wouldn’t you?

They Are Lazy 

Relationships are not just a one-time-big-time thing. It is something that two parties have to maintain in order for it to grow and become stronger. That means that both parties have to constantly make an effort to make  the relationship work. It could be a small or grand thing; it does not matter. It is always the thought and motivation that count. It could be a simple text or call when you are away from each other or a surprise dinner date at a new fancy restaurant in town. As already mentioned, it really does not matter as to what but more of as to why you are doing it.

If you date a weak person, they are only going to exert effort at the start of the relationship. You can watch it go downhill from there because they tend to get lazy once inside the relationship. They no longer make an effort to make you feel special and loved, and that could be a problem in the long run because relationships consist of battles that have to be won and this case you are both just going to keep on losing.

They Are Okay with  Mediocrity 

While relationships do not always have to be grandiose, it is normal to talk about the future and set standards so you can live a comfortable life. This includes working on your respective careers and knowing what you both want to do and be in life. Being in a relationship means you respect and believe in the other person. Their ambitions do not have to be as grand as the other because grandness is subjective and based on perception which the holder only understands and the other to some extent.

If you date a weak person, they will not have any ambition at all and will settle for anything that is already there. The problem with this is that his complacency could reflect in the relationship which means you could end up stagnant with no opportunities of growing together in the relationship. This could also pose a problem if you have big dreams because they can hinder you from reaching your full potential.

There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to relationships so note that these are just guidelines and based on past experiences. Every relationship is unique and that is what you have to understand with the other person first. In any case, love yourself and know what you deserve. Do not be afraid to end a relationship with a weak person who does not love and care for you. After all, Marilyn Monroe ended that popular quote with, “Good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” And isn’t she right?

So you found that one man who even with his faults is just perfect for you!

Well ladies, you can help your man lead a healthier life so that you can both enjoy many years together.

I can already hear you saying there is no way he will eat healthy foods or exercise but we have some tips to help you get him healthier without nagging.

This is the time to tell him that you love him the way he is but you’d like to keep him around for years to come; that eating healthier, exercising, and using regular preventative screenings can help him live longer giving you more time to enjoy together.

Healthier eating

First let’s talk about healthy eating.

You do not have to give up taste for a healthy diet or completely give up your favorite foods. Moderation is essential when it comes to food and drinks; instead of French fries or onion rings several times a month you can replace them with healthier alternatives such as green bean salad or a garden salad. 

When you cook, switch out the foods of lesser value for healthy ones of higher values.

Use spices and herbs when cooking for added flavor; you will also be surprised at how spices and herbs bring out the flavor of the food you use them on.

Steam your vegetables to tender crisp in order to keep the most nutrients in the vegetables instead of being boiled away. With potatoes baking is better than frying or boiling also did you know that many of the nutrients in potatoes are in the skin?

Tips to help your man eat healthier

Stick to the outside aisles of the grocery market; choose fresh vegetables and fruit, lean cuts of meat, and dairy.

Choose the recipes you are going to make and swap out high fat high carb ingredients when possible for lower fat or low carb items. An example would be for a cup of milk, choose skim milk instead.

Grill or broil meat, poultry, or fish instead of frying it this will allow grease and fat to drip away from the meat, poultry, or fish. Also avoid the skin on poultry if you are working on low fat.  

Measure portions so you and he do not over eat. This will also help with weight loss if it is needed and if not will help keep him from gaining weight that could cause health risks later on.

Keep healthy snacks of fresh fruit, vegetables, and nuts in the house instead of junk food. A great low carb low fat snack is a graham cracker topped with light cream cheese and a slice of apple (granny smith works well).

Steam or grill vegetables to tender crisp to keep the nutrients from cooking away; remember to use your spices and herbs on these.

Switch to sea salt as it contains less sodium.

Exercise for a healthy body

Like healthy eating; exercise for a healthy body does not have to be painful. 

There are plenty of ways to get exercise without causing discomfort; and you won’t have to nag him to exercise.

Exercise also helps reduce stress, lowers blood pressure, help control sugar levels, and can help him sleep better.

If you go walking, skiing, or other outdoor activities you also get the added benefit of the sun. It helps improve mental moods and reduces depression. Just be sure to use sunscreen; even in winter put it on your face and any skin that may be exposed.

Tips for exercise

Go for walks together. A half mile to mile several times a week if not every day is great for the heart and weight loss, managing diabetes, as well as reducing stress. If you leave the electronics (cell phones, I-pods, etc.) at home this is a great way to have some alone time for talking about all kinds of things.

Find an activity you both enjoy such as swimming, hiking, or other sports activity such as tennis in which you can both participate and get exercise.

Go to the gym together when you can or purchase exercise equipment and videos for home use.  

Also such activities as a writing custom stories or poems can help you and your man with brain activity.

Any activity that will get the heart pumping, tone the muscles and burn calories is good for him and you too!

Health Screening

By combining healthy eating, exercise, and preventative health screening you can help keep your man healthy and enable him to live longer.

Regular screening should be done for;

Sugar diabetes which can lead to other health issues.

Blood pressure which can lead to heart attack and stroke.

Certain types of cancers.

Heart health.

Prostate health.

Do not forget about mental and emotional health as well; then you will have complete health.

Consider a one a day vitamin as we don’t always get the proper nutrients from the food we eat.

Unhealthy habits

If your man has any unhealthy habits such as smoking, considerable alcohol use, or being a couch potato urge him to slow down or quit tobacco and alcohol as well as getting up and getting moving.

Encourage him to replace the bad habits with new healthy habits for life.

Set an example by replacing any bad habits you have with healthy ones.

Drink plenty of water, 7 or 8 glasses a day.

Get plenty of sleep; the average person requires 7 to 9 hours a day.

Conclusion

There is no need to nag your man, just explain that you love him and want him to be around for years to come so you can enjoy life together.

Ask him to try new foods or vegetables he may not like to see how they are the way you prepare them.

Always keep healthy foods in the house including snacks so that it becomes natural to eat a healthy diet.

Follow the tips above and there will be no need to nag him to get and stay healthy.
