		<description>Hi Rajesh,

I liked your article for its simplicity. It appealed to me very much, as I had a desire to start my blog. You have brought out the themes which also are quite relevant in the context of goal setting for an individual.

I recall here the quote by Mr. JRD Tata - &#039;Nothing worthwhile is ever achieved without deep thought and hard work&#039;.

Best Wishes</description>

		<description>Hi Rajesh!
Time constraints have made my visits to your blog further spread apart, but I think you are still doing a great job here. It is also good that we don`t need to login anymore.
I enjoyed very much this post. I recently wrote about it in my own blog, stressing how I know all the things I am doing &quot;wrong&quot; in my blog in order to attract readers. However, I still do them, since the feelings of writing mainly for myself and only peple similar to me, and the chance of being able to remember things I have gone through outweigh my desire to make the blog popular regarding number of visitors.
It seems that a lot more people than I thought follows my blog on rss than visiting it, and I guess, for the kind of blog I make, these are high quality -if low in number- people. It is like a club of interesting friends...
Maybe later you want to post on positive &quot;blog suicide&quot;, in the search of authenticity and quality in a blog ;)
regards

		<description>Very well compiled Rajesh,
One of the thing I notices about many celebrity bloggers is that, they will write almost 2-3 blogs daily and will make sure that something is posted on their blogs frequently. These blogs do attract the traffic. But most of the times I have seen these people pointing to some other blogs, or magazine article, or just commenting on some issues.
They don&#039;t write about what they think. They just point to many other links. Instead of blog, its more of a WEB DIRECTORY now. Go to that particular blog, you will find list of tens of other topics or issues pointing out to some other sites.
I am not sure whether is this a bad practice or what. Basically we need to define what BLOG means? Is it what are your views, what you think or is it making good articles (either yours or someone else&#039;s) available to the readers.
There will be ofcourse some news in daily newspaper or magazines. I have seen many bloggers to just comment on that  story and add a post on your blog site. Readers can read the original news from the newspaper.
So I think we should focus more on our OWN writing and reduce just referring to other bloggers and just commenting on some latest issues. If its a really gr8 article, then we should recommend it to the readers. But not daily, writing 3-4 lines in each post and point to someone else&#039;s blog!</description>

		<description>I think Rory (http://neopoleon.com) does a lot of those things and has one of the most succesful blogs.
But not everyone is Rory Blyth so, good advice.</description>
