This remarkable post reminds of the need to find an area where there are others around you. It means…people are already actually interested in that area. Yes!

Excellent article Ganesh.
You hit the nail on the head – the most important part of blogging is in the psychology of the Blogger.
As the old adage goes – 80% of success is in the psychology and 20% is in the mechanics.
Thanks for your insights.

Thanks all for your insightful comments.

@yodz – Yeah, numbers got to my nerves too. I make it a point, to check it once in a while according to a schedule in my calendar. Until then, i don’t.

@Judith – It happens. Could be that, it was not taken in the right way.
also @V.C.,
Not being competitive, doesn’t mean, you need to slack and lose the game. You could be the leader in your field and yet be not competitive.

Others would for sure be competitive and aggressive against you. But not being competitive doesn’t mean you are playing a losing game. Indeed you are creating a new untrodden path in your own style, unaffected by the mayhem around.

To me, the number is very very important
I check my blog’s statics every day, every time and i can’t live without it.
Competitive, yes… we need competitive to strive.

Nice reminder about not checking your numbers everyday. In the morning I ask my husband how many readers we had the day prior and if the numbers drop a bit, I am in a panic. He then has to remind me that the trend is what is important NOT day to day fluctuations!
