What Do you Say at the End of an Incredible Month of Blogging?

What Do you Say at the End of an Incredible Month of Blogging?

 

 

I didn't want to write a boring post on the Last Day of the 31 Days of January Challenge. I wanted to summarize what I had learned and what I got out of this Challenge.

 

 

But then I started getting emails and personal messages instead of comments on my posts. I realized that the Group Members were saying all the things I'd wanted to say!

Here are some examples:

"your challenge made me reach deep down inside and create something that I thought would be interesting, not just something that would fill the space."

this was by Heather Chavez in her post this morning.

 

 

 

Then Margaret Woda said: "Connie, thanks for the challenge in January, it got me back on board with Activerain  The result:  2 new listings and 1 new buyer"  in a comment to me.

 

 

 

 

Joyce Godwin decided to continue with the daily blogging in the new Valentine Bloggers group that is challenging members to blog everyday WITHOUT bonus points!  "I think I am going to pretend there ARE points, just in case I need that extra nudge. LOL  I want to make sure it becomes an even more rock-solid habit"

Now how cool is that?

 

 

 

Don Wixom said yesterday: 

"Here we are toward the end & I believe I have created some good habits of spending time in the Rain!"

 

 

 

 

 

This is what Emily Medvec said: "Your challenge made a difference for me here. The key is in the blogging. Each one is like throwing a pebble in the pond. The ripples touch many shores."    I watched as Emily became more and more comfortable with her posts. You could see it in her writing!

 

 

I laughed out loud when I read Brenda Whitman's comments this morning. "I never would have thought of myself as a blogger and for some reason your post prompted me to go, go, go and get on with it, already." 

Then she came back with a P.S. and said: "What happens to us now?  Are we going to be, gasp, dismantled?  Boo, hoo.  I feel like I just got here. . ."

Honestly I was feeling the same way!

 

 

Then this morning, Joe Kenny really summed it up: "I'm done, Thank God.  What a great discipline exercise."

 

These are just a small sample of the encouraging comments and kind emails I have received just in the past couple of days.

I can truly say that I got more out of this than I expected. Except for 2 or 3 days, when I was really busy, I was able to post easily. Those other days I didn't have anything in draft and I struggled a little. But I got it done.

I've made a whole new group of friends. My subscriber list has almost doubled and I've taken on mentoring a newer AR member.

Thank you everyone for a great month of blogging!

Now off to the Valentine Bloggers challenge to continue posting everyday in February!
