As a blogger and an entrepreneur, you are pretty much the commander in chief of the entity that is your business, the Captain. the leader of the team. the commander of the blog or the manager of the shop. Captain is sometimes used as a phrase of respect to let someone know you respect their opinions or decisions. making decisions is not always easy when you are in charge. sometimes you have to make the hard calls and do things you may not want to do. sometimes when a decision has to be made, people turn to someone in charge or someone experienced who would best know what to do. This person is not always the manager or supervisor. sometimes they are just the more experienced. a long time ago, some people called other people Captain just because they were respected. not a bad idea really.
also, a captain is the leader of a team or military unit. or the owner of a boat or ship. or commander of a ship. or a spaceship. Daniel Boone was made a captain just so he could lead the soldiers he was guiding. I read that some where once.
we often see captains in charge of starships on sci Fi shows and assume that they are leaders because of their rank. like they had to work their way up to it. but the new star trek broke that rule. Jim Kirk had barely been on board when he was made Captain. sloppy writing? yes. but the fans know him as the leader so it worked out some how. still, sloppy.
as the writer of a blog, you have to do almost everything, while coordinating with others who are in charge of things like advertising and such. even though the entrepreneur is sometimes a sole proprietor, decisions have to be made. some body has to pay the bills. and the blogger is often a solo act. a sole proprietor. the captain of a team of one. sometimes more than one. but still, the captain of the team.
Thank you for your support.
The Captain.
