Is Reaching 100,000 Points on Active Rain A Big Deal Anymore???

In comparison to some heavy hitters like my favorites Lou Ludwig, Anita Clark, Susan Emo, Norma Toering, Patricia Kennedy, and Georgina Hunter to name a few probably not so much, for they past it sometime ago. However, I turned it into a competition for myself by making a goal to reach this first 100k milestone.

The date I set was May 2nd, back in December when I started getting serious. By giving this goal, I became obsessed to achieve for fear I would drop off and not commit to the challenge. I started to look at who was in front of me to hurdle over in the ranking. Who came up with the point and rank thing was genius.  

By the numbers I have left 342 blogs, 1404 comments, and have received 749. I want to thank all those that have stopped by and those that have given special instruction. My goal to reach 200k is now set for 10/14/12. Thanks again to the 749…….

Winston, You are on a Roll, My Friend. Making 100K in six months is a Big Deal alright. I know I am impressed with your blogging. You have a Great Signature Block too. I thought I had subscribed, but I will fix that now.

Don;t let snow, rain or tornados keep you from your task at hand. Or is that the Post Office?

Winston - it depends how you look at it. I always say that first 100,000 points are the most difficutl ones. But I see danger in going only after the number.

I am trying to condtrol myself, as it is very easy to start writing easy and it is not good for you.

Good luck

Thank you all, the point challenge perhaps can be a hobby too. As far as business itself It really comes from a few sources, by which Active Rain is not one until recently. There is a lot of time spent on this site as you know and comments do take time. If it lands a few deals it will be all worth the ride.

It's the points thing, but after you reach the top of the leader board, I'm sure it changes...

Winston,

CONGRATS!!!!!!

I believe that AR makes a difference in my day and is what I do just about every morning instead of "flipping" channels for an hour.....the benefits are much, much better.
