[50 Blog Posts Achieved] The Reason I Was Able to Keep Going Even Though I Often Give Up. My Creative Process is Accelerating Even More Since Starting on note!

The blog is finally50 articlesWe have reached our destination.

The reason why I, who had failed so many times with my reading blog, was able to continue this far.

And then, I startednoteThis summarizes the changes that have occurred in my creative process.

Firstly: I started using note (it broadened my creative horizons).

In 2026, I started a new blog on note.

What I immediately noticed after starting to use it was the "freedom" it offered, which was completely different from blogging.

You don't have to worry about specialization, and you can write without feeling pressured.

Having a place where I can record the books I read and the thoughts that came to mind has made the creative process incredibly smoother.

My blog is my research lab, YouTube is my presentation platform, and note is my free-form notebook.

The fact that these three elements came together meant that the creative cycle continued without interruption, which was a significant change.

What I've learned from 50 blog posts

After writing 50 articles, I realized thatThis means that my writing skills and my ability to verbalize my insights have definitely improved.

I've become able to put into words the discoveries I've made through illustration, and I can now naturally think about how to structure my work so that readers will enjoy it to the end.

I learned about the importance of using images and internal links as I wrote the text.

Since I get bored easily when I follow templates, I think the style of writing whatever comes to mind at the time suits me best.

The reason I was able to continue with my reading blog after failing at it before.

Back when I couldn't keep up with my reading blog, "I was just plain stupid to begin with..."I honestly believed that.

I'm the kind of person who wants to read the next book before writing a review, so to be honest, I often found myself wondering, "What should I write about this book...?"

However, the situation changed completely after I switched to a creative writing blog.

I've been creating things for as long as I've been reading, and I enjoy drawing, so I have a strong desire to challenge myself with it.

Because there's a lot of trial and error involved, it's easy to translate that into written form.

That was the moment I became convinced that I could continue with this.

Search Console taught me the importance of "accumulation."

When I saw the number of indexed pages in Search Console steadily increase from June to July, I did a double-take (lol).

My blog, which hadn't been updated at all for several months, suddenly started moving again.

"So this is the power of 50 articles..."That was a truly moving moment.

This includes organizing internal links, improving article quality, and reviewing the reader journey.

I've noticed that small improvements are reflected in the numbers, and I've really come to realize that my blog is starting to become a place where people can find me.

The moment when blogs, YouTube, and note all fit together perfectly

After I started using note seriously, I suddenly realized something.

"What I do on this blog is research and experimentation."

This realization was everything.

Blogs are my research lab, YouTube is my presentation platform, and note is my free-form notebook.

The moment this division of roles clicked into place, the creative cycle began to spin rapidly.

The following is a breakdown of the roles of each social media platform.

Blog (Reading in fine weather, reading in rainy weather)

• Illustration Research
• How to use Proimage
• Animation production
• Creative insights → A research institute that documents technical trial and error.

YouTube

• Animation release
• Turn the research results into a video → Presentation venue

note

• everyday life
• Rewriting reading records
• Stories I can't write about on my blog → free book

Starting to use note has made it easier to record small observations and everyday events that aren't quite worth writing about on a blog, which has significantly reduced the burden on my creative work.

The reason the PDCA cycle started working was "AI".

I was terrible at the PDCA cycle. I would write things down and then just leave them there without checking them.

However, improvements accelerated once we were able to consult with AI.

The meaning of ALT, how to structure articles, benefits and SEO, and how to create clickable titles.

We brainstorm titles with AI, record its reactions, and then make improvements.

That was the moment when the PDCA cycle finally started to take effect.

The more articles there are, the easier it becomes to add internal links.

When there were fewer articles, I couldn't add internal links even if I wanted to.

However, as I approached 50 articles, I began to naturally see reader flow patterns, such as "this article and this article are easier to read together" and "this theme goes well with previous articles."

This creates a synergistic effect throughout the blog, where older articles boost the popularity of newer ones, and newer articles encourage people to read older ones.

My work efficiency skyrocketed after I replaced my PC.

Buying a new PC was a major reason for continuing with this.

Previously, it took over 10 minutes to start up, which was quite discouraging.

Now I can start working in just 10 seconds, so I can write the moment I feel like it.

"Creating the right environment is part of the creative process."I realized that very strongly.

When the homepage is well-organized, the entire blog grows.

As more articles are added, the homepage will instantly look much better.

Popular articles are displayed, categories take shape, and internal links increase user engagement.

As the homepage develops, the entire blog begins to function as a single, unified world.

Abandon perfectionism and embrace completionism.

When perfectionism kicks in, it never gets finished.

that's why"We'll start by releasing it at 70%."We made sure to do so thoroughly.

I remember being told by an AI, "70% of what you consider normal is over 90% in the real world."

Things I want to try in the future

• YouTube monetization
• Production of original short animated films
• Trying out Live2D
• Paid articles on note
• Create a business plan for a creative project.

All of these are futures that are extensions of the present, and I would be happy if my creative work continues to grow.
