I am guilty of not writing posts of mediocrity. True enough Terence, I too think similarly with regular bloggers. Sometimes, I forget as to whom I am writing for. I have been so consumed with keywords. The tendency is that I lose my target niche.

@Bryan:

Not to worry. Your story encourage me not to stop what I am doing. Besides my few e-commerce stores and few blogs, I do have some other non-disclosure online business to run. At this points, none of them can fulfill my dream and make my name on entrepreneur or Forbes magazine.

I am seeking few more creative business idea without the inventory and 14 working hour a day. I would love to see your success story published! Keep it up!

Great stuff Terence! Thanks for the mention. I’m almost embarrassed to say, since we’ve known each other for a bit now… but what other business’s do you run?

@Catherine L:

You are perfect right. Get out what you are doing for so long and think about something else. When you come back, you got a fresh idea and solve your problem faster.

Thank you for reminding me.

Hi Terence – I believe you will work out what you need to do to make your blog a success because you are smart.

You are asking for feedback from your readers which is good, as they are potential customers. And the fact that you’re interacting with your readers is good.

I think that blogs are going to become far more interactive in the future. And those ones who don’t interact with their readers are going to lose out.

Terence, I don’t know if this will help you, but sometimes when I’m stuck for ideas, I go and read about a subject that has nothing to do with what I’m writing about. I just pick something I would be interested in learning about and google it. You could give it a try.

@Catherine L:

You are right. I think I am still thinking too much about making money off my blog, which drive me away from my original goals of this blog. I was also too personal about my blog.

Thank you for your kind words. I use image, because I believe it can distract people from seeing my weakest writing point.

Regardless what my blog turns out, I really enjoy interact with my readers. It’s like talking to a long lost friend. They are strangers, but they are also so close.

Hi Terence, Interesting refections. I think the key is that it’s impossible to be successful if you’re only motivated by money.

As well as blogging about what people want to read, you need to choose a topic that you’re interested in too; or you’ll run out of steam and won’t enjoy what you’re doing.

I think the way you use pictures in your blog makes it unique. You’re creative in the way you chop them up. If I’d used the picture you used today it would have wound up looking like a row of decapitated people.
