Getting lazy with your posting

Getting lazy with posting to your blog.



It's happened to everyone from time to time.



Instead of posting to your own blog, you read every blog on your links directory, and your entire blog RSS feed reader besides.



Perhaps, you had a better idea. Taking a tour of the offline world, and enjoying the great outdoors, beats blogging hands down. The wonders of nature trump almost everything blog related.



It's not a bad thing to be lazy. Don't worry about any sense of guilt or some misplaced Puritan work ethic.



Those concepts, whether outmoded or not, have absolutely nothing to do with maintaining a successful blog.



A good blog post requires some degree of care. A good blog posting can add many more new visitors to your blog. Other people will link to it. Your regular readers will e-mail a link to their friends and family.



A bad blog posting can send your regular visitors to another blog in a hurry. New traffic will simply pass on through your stop on the information super highway.



Instead of being concerned about being lazy, and worried about not posting, use the time for more important things. Family and friends are infinitely more valuable than a slapped together post about...well...not much.



Missing days of posting can be refreshing. A short break can help to refocus the mind on what your blog is truly all about. Keeping your blog on topic is helpful, for those regular readers, who turn to your blog for specific information.



After all that talk about being lazy, I think I'll go commune with nature.



Then take a nap.



What could display laziness better than that!
