Sometimes losing motivation, or at least wondering if you're moving in the right direction gives you time to pause, reflect and strengthen your resolve because you realize, YES, I am on purpose. Sometimes momentum can be a bad thing - you set this goal and keep heading towards it but don't realize that what you're striving for is no longer what you really want. With respect to my visitor numbers, the average is around 50 - I get between hmm, 35-65 visitors a day. My blog has no particular niche - my tag line really says it all - I'd like to give my readers something to thing about. I realize I haven't given it my all with respect to promoting it. I have had some very high traffic days due to having HMTKSteve from <a href="http://www.hmtk.com/" rel="nofollow">HMTK</a> and Charbarred from The <a href="http://www.theplugg.com/" rel="nofollow">Plugg </a>submitting a few of my posts to sites. Neither of them told me - they just did it! I've noticed that Steve has been very helpful to many of the new bloggers out there from promoting their work to assisting with the technical details. His helping others inspired me to encourage other bloggers, too. Thanks for the compliment on my writing! I appreciate it and it keeps me motivated!

I do agree with you that when you reflect back to your purpose of why you started blogging, or like you said asking yourself the questions, you will find peace and reasons why you should continue to move forward. I did that the other day, reminding myself my true purpose of why I began this blog project. It brought the motivation back and actually allowed me to think of new ideas and topics. I also agree that when you connect with others from the community and take time to read other post, you will find inspiration through them. I know I have when ever I land on your page. I also want to comment on your quote. I love it. It reminds me of this one from Solomon, ‘For a man in his heart, so is he’ I’m also very surprised at your daily visits. You write very well and have interesting topics that you do not get more hits than that. Hmmm we should do something about it ;) Take care Ms. Q, Thank you for sharing your motivational tips and tricks.
