One cannot be humble and aware of oneself at the same time.

We have all been at a loss for words, ideas, and a plan for Instagram, and it is not fair. We cannot always be expected to be "on" and capable of the best most fantastic content every day, can we?
However, most people do not have as many photos as influencers have, so do not blame yourself if you find it hard to come up with ideas of things to post.
Content ideas for Instagram without a plan.
A quote or graphics:
Some of the best performing and the highest reaching post types on Instagram happen to be quoted. Link a suitable graphic or citation with the right hashtags to match the message, and you'll have a significant part of content perfect for your grid.
Your lovely pets:
Talking of the highest reaching types of posts, who doesn't love a cute puppy face? Or, if you see a cat, a pig, horse snap a lovely picture of them and share a little personal info about you and your pet.
Show your desk and the workspace:
If there's one thing you see most, it's your desk. So, why not to share that space with your following. Messy or not doesn't matter, people love to see process photos and where you make the magic.
Your outfits:
Are you looking at your best today? Why not share. Looking and feeling your best should be celebrated, and some people like, understanding where you might have gotten your shoes or your bag or your clothes.
Celebrations:
When you reach a milestone, why not share that victory with your audience? Especially if you are in a corner and have an audience that seeks encouragement from the people like you who may be doing something they want to do one day. (like blogging, running marathons, writing poetry.. etc.)
Throwback Pictures:
#throwbackthursday #flashbackfriday – use these hashtags weekly if you like! Do not skip to pair them with a photo from the past. Even if the photo is only a week older.
What you are currently reading:
Have a stack of magazines or blogs you are into right now? Snap a pic and share what you love the most about them. Don't forget to tag the authors of those books or blogs too. This will help support them and spread the love.
Favourite food:
Food pics on Instagram? Who would have thought! Of course, you should take a photo of your day brunch or your simple snack. Put that meal towards the best lit window in your home and don't forget to decorate the background of your photo with a glass of orange juice or coffee mug. Have fun with food pics and the inspiration hits!
Favourite sport:
Whether it's on the beach or gully cricket, don't forget to take a photo so that when you're the Instagram plan is lacking, you'll have something to share with your audience about your favourite sport.
Make a recommendation:
If you have a life-changing resource, share it and change the lives of your followers in the process.
The morning routine :
Make a quick list of everything you do to plan for your day. What time do you wake up? Do you go to the gym first or check your WhatsApp messages? Curious minds want to know!
Questions:
People love to share their viewpoints. So, take a photo or make a graphic asking your readers the question "this or that".
Share what you do:
What's yours, why? How did you get started? Share a bit about yourself, and you.
Show how you stay healthy :
Are you a runner? Do you make a daily morning smoothie? Even if it isn't related to your niche, a post on Instagram about how you care for yourself is something exciting that your followers can get behind.
Give a sneak peek:
Are you creating something new? Share a sneak peek to help tease its launch!
Show your favourite shops and places:
When you're out and about at your favourite spots, grab a photo of it for sharing on Instagram. Perhaps it is a small store in your town, and you can pair the picture with the hashtag #shopsmall in support of small businesses.
Shout out to your idol:
Does someone inspire you to be a better person? Maybe you have a business coach or fitness coach who encourages the best from you. Share that with your followers. Sharing is caring.
Share your outdoor activities
Friends are great because they'll usually indulge in a fun Instagram photo or video – so why not take full advantage of that friend level! They'll often be glad to help if you ask nicely OR offer them a cup of tea in exchange. haha
Share a client's testimonial
Have you received a kind word from a recent client? Put it out there for everyone to see. A little brag is just beautiful now and then.
Share your new hobbies
We've talked about how sharing resources could be a good post for Instagram, but why not also share something you've learned too? A good and short tip or trick even works.
Your favourite drinks
Share a snap of you with your favourite drink? If you're like me, it's coffee, and it's around all the time anyway, which makes this photo easy!
