Chris,

Very actual post for me and for my blog today.

Though I can’t agree with you that we shouldn’t complain about our failures or something we’re not happy with.. We, actually, need that – but for ourselves only, not for public.

I can’t say I agree, blogging has been pretty painless for me. Though perhaps I haven’t dug deep enough yet. We will see soon enough I suppose!

Good points on leaving the negativity behind. Being negative puts you at a standstill then nothing gets accomplished. I have a little plague right by my computer that says, “Never, never, never give up”. I tell myself that each morning before I ever even turn the computer on. I may not know all I need to know yet to make it in this blogging world but everyday I strive to learn something new that will help me along the way. I love your statement about a blog being an evolution. I agree and I am evolving with my blog daily learning and growing. Finding this site is a great resource for a fairly new blogger like myself.

Here’s to keep on keeping on where ever the path may take you.

My father taught me something as a young man with a quote that I have carried for 20yrs about frustration, heartache and business failures; “your just passing through”.

Get over it, keep it moving.

You are 100% correct.

Low followers is a sign you are doing something wrong, or could do something better.

Few comments means something isn’t right.

We get these signs and it is up to us to let go of our own egos and improve.

On a larger scale, if our company/blog is dragging and it’s not fun/exciting/challenging anymore, it is time to get rid of it or take a radical different direction.

I figure that beating my head against a wall, so to speak, isn’t going to move the wall. I’ve either got to jump over that wall, go steal a bulldozer, or go around the wall.

Thanks man! I appreciate that.

Small victories are super important. That is why I believe in doing 1 thing a day to improve a blog. Just 1! Really easy.

Glad you enjoyed the post.

Yeah.

For me, making money isn’t enough. I suppose if my passion was to collect rare beanie babies and it costs a lot of money, and I made that money through blogging, that’s one thing.

But I take a huge amount of personal pride in the content I put out there. I couldn’t just make something to simply make money.

But hey, getting paid is nice

Hey Chris,
I really like your recent blog posts. Some awesome ideas there. Ones that have worked for me, although, I haven’t really put it together. Cool stuff!

I can tell with your content that you ‘walk the walk’. Keep it up man. And keep pushing through, as you call it.
