Going UpThat is right, I am giving you the Naked Truth about the stats for this month. And if you already want to hop to another blog, thinking this is yet another boring detailed “I am showing off statistics that really aren´t worth bragging about”, you might want to wait a bit and keep on reading, these are going to be different!

Today I am celebrating the first month anniversary, and during this month, I have posted 38 times. That in itself really isn´t a big deal, the things I have learned from it are.

Being honest and sincere makes a bigger impact than just following the rest.

I have also learned that there is supposed to be a “blogging community” you need to be a part of in order to succed. I find that hard to believe, seeing that there are billions of blogs around the whole world, talking about thousands of different subjects, in many different languages, and very different approaches and points of view. The only thing they have in common, is that they are using the same format of publishing their thoughts into the world. Does that make it a “community”?

Is it really in our best interest to appeal to ever single person in the world or would that just make you shallow?

I have”grown” when it comes to traffic, RSS readers (thank you so much for signing up!), alexa ranking, even picked up a few bucks here and there (but not throught this blog!). I have been stumbled upon, “fired” and digged, things that I would not like to happen to me in the Real World out there, but over here it has been great.

But the area I feel I have personally grown in the most, is the level of dedication and persistance, building new positive habits and becoming more organised eventhough I know I still have a long way to go.

Continuing with the statistics, I have commented on well over a 100 blogs I found interesting enough to comment on, no matter whether they were “do- or no-follow” blogs. I have learned a bit about SEO and “getting more traffic”, I have read a lot of really crappy posts and fortunately also some really inspiring stories aswell.

Another important thing I have learned this past month is the impact words can have on my own thoughts, leading me to think how much I would love my words to impact somebody elses thoughts.

If it were possible to draw a personal statistic chart on happiness and share it here with you, you would actually see the numbers going up and up, feeling stronger and more confident than when I first started writing this blog, which to me means it is becoming a success already.

And that to me is enough reason to keep on blogging and be grateful for the people who are reading me, thank you so much!

How do you rate your succes?
