You CAN Win the #AtoZChallenge 2024 ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ…๐ŸŽ†๐ŸŽ‰ Five Tips 5️⃣

#AtoZChallenge2024 #AtoZChallenge2024 badge1


Welcome to the letter F. Don't fail now! We lose so many good bloggers by the second week of the challenge. It's hard to imagine keeping up the fast pace of the start for the whole month. Here are five tips for you:


  1.  Look out for negative thoughts and feelings. The little voice saying "I think you can't, I think you can't, I think you can't" doesn't own you. Acknowledge it and then reach for your goals anyway.
  2. The fact is that many of our bloggers do complete the challenge. Many do come up with an alphabet of blog posts in April. And the successful majority carve out time to visit and comment on at least 50 other blogs in the hop! There is a community here waiting to show you support and ready to help you achieve your social blogging goals.
  3. If you can picture yourself failing the challenge, you can also picture yourself winning the challenge. There are many possible scenarios. You can decide how this April will end.
  4. If thinking about the whole month or whole challenge gets to be too much, then focus on just one day. Create one blog post for the next letter, and then go hop to a handful of blogs. Find just an hour or just twenty minutes. Negative thoughts have to be on mute for a little. ⏲ Set a timer. ⏳
  5. What is the very BEST-CASE scenario for the April Blogging from A to Z Challenge for you and your blog? Find your goal! Maybe it's getting to display the winner's badge. Perhaps it's getting a certain number of comments, or leaving a given number of them. Maybe it's about improving your writing. Or proving to yourself that you can actually create a month of blog posts. Whatever would make you feel the BEST about completing the challenge, write that down and read it to yourself all month. Every time you want to quit, look at your reason to try, your stated desire, and imagine yourself achieving that goal. Consider how it will make you feel to be a winner.

You CAN do this! Please, ask any of our A to Z team members for help. We all have lots of experience and plenty of ideas to share. We want to celebrate with you during the reflection post in May. We love hearing stories of bloggers who achieved their goals during the challenge.

E is for Excitement

Are you excited to be taking part in the A to Z Challenge this year? Every year, I get excited to get started, but it gets more and more difficult as the month goes on. That's why it's a challenge, though, right? 

I just want you to know that if your excitement is waning, that's okay! There's still plenty of time to find your excitement again! You want to know what did it for me? I got my husband to join in. Now he's far surpassed me by opening every blog on the Master List! You want to know how many I've opened so far? 0. 0 blogs. I certainly will look at many over the next few weeks, but it's been a rough start for me. If you're feeling that, you are not alone. Don't give up! Keep the excitement flowing. Find a new blog you're excited about. Share the A to Z Challenge with a friend, and keep blogging!

If this is your first A to Z Challenge, what made you decide to do it?

If this is not your first Challenge (especially if you've been away for a year or more), what brought you back again this year?

In short, what do you want out of the challenge? Some possible things you get from doing this annual exercise:

  • You want more traffic for your blog.
  • You have a great theme that you want to share with everyone.
  • You're looking for new "blog buddies."
  • You're interested in seeing what everyone else comes up with.
  • Force of habit?

What you want is your desire. Kind of a strong word for it, I admit, but that's what it is. It's what makes you come back every year. For me, this is the highlight of my blogging year. I want to see what everyone else does. I have a theme that I think will be entertaining. More traffic would be nice, of course, even though this is pretty much just something to do.

Whatever your desire for this year's Challenge, I hope you find it.
