This was an excellent post! I'm actually considering printing it out and framing it as the 10 commandments of blogging. I especially like the last point. I spend so much time on my blog that I often don't sleep at night.

Being personal is the way — it lets us writers give perspective when we pass along a few of those hard-won points of life! Keep on!

Hi, Melvin. Yeah, I know – I've read your account of WordCamp 2009. You're a shy person? That surprised me. I've always thought of you as a gregarious, life of the party kind of guy.

That's a great lesson: never stop learning. I thought I was already done with school. But with blogging, oh boy. So many things to do and master. The gaps in my knowledge make me red in the face. LOL. Thanks, Barbara.

Thanks a lot, Rob. What a great compliment. I can't be anything but personal with this. Most of those points I've learned the hard way.

I hope you did not fall asleep though. “,) The courage to be yourself – this is one of the toughest one to master. Most of the time, we tend to put up a brave front although there's nothing wrong with that of course. It's the constant temptation to manage how others perceive us through our blogging that can often lead to horrible writing. Thanks, Tracy, for bringing up a very important point.

Unexpectedly I enjoy this post a lot. Yes, it's a stumble alright. ^^

I think we all get to learn something along the way. Darren may guide us since started, but I think he knows well we will figure out other things eventually. For example, family is our priority, so are the importance of health, ethics, networking, bloggers collaborations.. and more. I learn that everything comes with a price; also, the need to be grateful for whatever milestones we hit, and numbers is not always 'everything'.
