Before I dive into My Purpose for Fashion and Style Police Blog, let me explain how I got to the point of writing this post.
I read books a lot and I love reading. My goal for this year is to read a book a week. This was the same goal I had last year and I almost smashed it. So I am hoping I smash it completely this 2018. I am currently reading The Mindful Entrepreneur:How to rapidly grow your business while staying sane, focused and fulfilled by Howard Finger and Aryeh Goldman on my Kindle. And I am really learning a lot. It is a very easy to read self-help non fiction book but it is written in a fiction way, if that makes any sense.
I got this book for 99p and it is the best 99p I have spent so far this year. It is literally speaking to me and I am so glad I found this book. I have made some silly decisions lately; buying books with great samples only to realise it was a complete waste of my time and money. Most times I struggle to finish reading such book and just abandon it halfway but not this book. I am soaking the wise words from Howard Finger and Aryeh Goldman, and implementing the information into my business.
The Mindful Entrepreneur book has made me think deeply outside the box. It has opened my eyes to how to discover my deep purpose for Fashion and Style Police Blog by answering 4 Why questions. I found the exercise some educative and I know I will be learning a lot from this book.
My Purpose for Fashion and Style Police Blog
- Why do I write on Fashion and Style Police Blog? I write to provide quality fashion, beauty and lifestyle articles.
- Why should anyone read my blog? Because I write quality articles that will educate and entertain my readers.
- Why would my blog posts entertain or educate anyone? My blog posts entertain and educate because they will make my readers feel good and feel like they have learnt something new after reading my posts.
- Why would the blog readers feel good and like they have learnt something new? My blog readers will spend wisely on products and services that would best serve them. They will also be informed on how best to use these products and services. These readers will eventually save money and time that would have been spent shopping around for products and services that would not work for them.
These answers have led me to the summary of my business purpose for the blog, which is to save money and time. And that valuable purpose makes me feel so good.
I urge every business owner to try this exercise. It makes you think deeply outside the box for the right answers. And it should work for every business because every business needs a meaningful purpose to succeed. For you to be a successful blogger/business owner, you and your staff must be focused on fulfilling a valuable purpose for your customers.
Do try this exercise and let me know how you get on.
I think it’s a good template that can be adapted to any business model or idea! It is certainly an idea I will add to my skill set in what I do offline. Thank you. Its a great thought provoking post Stella
Thanks for reading. Glad you like the template.
I’ll have to definitely give this one a read! Really need to get my website focus written down clearly. Thanks for this! x
Thank you for reading Vicky x
I’m going to add this book to my shopping basket, I think. Sounds like an interesting read. I too want to read more this year. Nothing is more relaxing than a hot cuppa and a good book 🙂 x
I agree Hazel. Hope you get to read more books this year x
That’s a really great task to run through with your blog and I can see how it would help any business owner to think deep and focus on all the when, what’s, who’s and why’s. Great advice and it looks like you’ve got it all finely tuned for 2018.
Thanks Annette.
99p what a book bargain. Your reflection exercise is a fab idea and it is always good to reflect and learn…Also have an understanding of why you are doing something x
Yes it is. Thanks Melanie x
I love positive thinking books like this and wow 99p!!!! I hope they sell lots to make it worth their while. I really must make a list for myself
Yea it is a great bargain!!
The book sounds like a good read. The four question exercise is a good way to get focused on your goal for your business.
Yes it is Sade.
this made such a good point. because at the end of the day their are only a small group of people who would read a blog if they aren’t getting anything out of it. And this also helped me motivate myself more because sometimes I lose my purpose you know? so in short terms, thank you lol!

Happy you found this post useful Raven. Thanks for stopping by.
Great post
Thanks.
This books sounds so useful and I think all bloggers could make use of writing the list of purpose you wrote, it’s so easy to become a little lost in it all. Wishing you all the luck for 2018!
Thanks Alexandra.
This sounds like such a fab book, it’s always great to keep in mind why you are doing what you’re doing rather than just continuing aimlessly. I hope you have a great 2018
I hope so too. Thanks Toni.
