People love to listen to others talk about how to make a fortune and save money. But guess what? They also like to listen to people talk about their serious financial distress and what steps they are taking to get out of debt.
Within the past two months, I have had the good fortune to work on several blog themes that fit one or the other of these classifications.

Why do you blog? The vast number of blogs in the world can make you feel as if your blog is completely lost in anonymity. Sometimes it feels like spinning your wheels as a result. If you have a blog, I’d be interested to hear about what you find discouraging about blog writing? What keeps you motivated?
It would be easier to just stop blogging, but most of us just keep on writing regardless of our lack of readers. The reward is the writing itself. Sure, it’s gratifying to know that someone has actually read your post and even more gratifying when they leave a comment. But deep down inside I think we all just like to write. What do you think? Why do you blog? Remember, it will feel gratifying to me if you leave a comment!
