Charlie, it is helpful to see and I appreciate you not changing it.

Right now I’m going through a lot of “I’m not quite quitting but I can’t go on like this” conflict. Your post shows me I’m only human (sigh of relief.) You give me hope, too, that I can persevere and create something valuable as you have.

Who knows, maybe I can revisit this comment in 2 years with a knowing little smile on my face.

Thank you.

Thanks, Chris! My sincere hope is that it helps those bloggers that are at the end of the rope hang see that it’s not just *them* – it’s hard to get over the dip for everyone.

Thank you, Kathleen. I so wanted to go back and edit/delete this post, but great feedback like this reinforces my thought that it’s helpful for people to see it when they’re at that point.

I just found you through Sonia Simone of Remarkable Communication so I am reading this post two years late myself. But thank you for your brutal honesty. I completely relate to a lot of what you had to say and thanks for sharing your emotional frustrations and knowing that it takes focus and changing habits and our thinking processes to stay in the game of whatever it is one creates.

I’m two years late to this post… but you’ve summed up what every blogger feels like at least once (usually more) in their blogging lives.

Thanks for keeping this post transparent–it’s genuinely inspirational that way.

@Kelly: Yep, I couldn’t agree more – this post is an old one. I read it the other day and thought there may be a few people who could get a bit of inspiration from looking at one of my older posts, assuming they like the blog where it is now.

I agree, blogging does take a lot of time and effort. But if you blog about a topic you are passionate about, it alleviates that.
