It's a New Year and I have been feeling so appreciative of the community at ActiveRain. I decided to jump in and host the first Central Florida Active Rain Meet Up last month and meet my fellow bloggers in person. I've been doing more blogging and commenting on others posts. I've been messaging other Realtors and getting to know the people that make up this fantastic community. I still feel like there is so much to learn and I'm far from being an expert on blogging. However, Active Rain pushes me to write and to do better.

Yes, I'm guilty of chasing points. I have a bit of a competitive streak. Those points are easy to chase, I have set goals, 1,000 points at a time. I feel happy when I've reached another milestone. I just reached 50,000 points, that makes me halfway to a 100,000 points. Yay! I figure I can reach the 100,000 point mark by end of summer and I'd like to reach 150,000 by the end of the year. My goal for end of 2011 was to reach the 50K mark, but I reached it just two days into 2012. I achieved my goal, just not by my own deadline.

The points actually encourage me to write, which is good, I am guilty of in the past starting a blog and abandoning it, this was a trend I repeated a few times, kind of like going on a crash diet. You start, loose a few pounds (write a few blogs), then you feel like you've accomplished something, but at the end, you burn out and loose that momentum and just gain the weight back (loose all the SEO juice you built up).

I am very thankful for those I have encountered here in the rain who have given me motivation to keep going. It always makes me smile when someone posts a comment on something that I wrote or adds me to their circle as an associate. You guys are the best and this is Why I Love The Rain.

Erna, I assisted in the meet up we had in Denver in September this past year, and was fun meeting those real estate professionals that I had not met face to face yet!
