Happy Friday everyone!

Welcome to another weekly round-up post from our growing community of bloggers, writers, vloggers, podcasters, and other fellow creatives. To be straight to the point, each and every week we hand-pick five top posts from a pool of the highest voted user-submitted/created posts in the community and include them in this weekly round-up blog post, along with the newsletter for all of our e-mail subscribers. As per our submission rules, posts shared can not be older than 30 days, meaning that all of the following are fresh and recent!

Here are this week’s (Mar 23 – Mar 29, 2019) most valuable posts from the /t/BES content creators community:

1. Study Finds That Low-Quality Sleep Can Lead to Procrastination
People procrastinate because they are unable to properly control their behavior, which causes them to engage in unwanted, dilatory behaviors, instead of taking action which is aligned with their goals.

2. What Makes Long Term Personal Goals So Damn Hard?
The pursuit of long-term goals is a defining part of the human experience. It promises to translate our dreams into lived reality. Which sounds pretty good, right? So why are we so bad at sticking to them?

3. What Writing Confidence REALLY Looks Like
Here’s the difference between a “confident” writer and an “unconfident writer”: the confident writer just keeps on writing. I have enough experience with this writing stuff to know that it all comes together in the end.

4. The Secret Trail of Money Behind Those Instagram Porn Bots
Porn bots have plagued Instagram for years. We’ve all got so used to them flooding into our follower requests and liking our pictures that no one really questions who’s behind them and what they want.

5. Why You Procrastinate (It Has Nothing to Do With Self-Control)
When we procrastinate, we’re not only aware that we’re avoiding the task in question, but also that doing so is probably a bad idea. And yet, we do it anyway. (Note: If you hit an article limit, use icognito mode!)

That’s all folks! You can view all the rest of the community’s top submissions (11 more) here.

Be sure to tune in next Friday for another great weekend reading list that will make you a better and more informed blogger, writer, and/or content creator! If you have anything awesome to submit that others might enjoy, feel free to do so!
