As for blogging, I have made a commitment to read certain blogs every morning before I do anything else. Reading in the morning is one of those big rocks I place first in my day.

Good job on this article.

Other than that I agree with the list that Brian did. It is a good starting point.

-Have Great Idea or theme for your Blog.
-Find a good name for it, easy to remember.
-Have a defined Audience, and then go get them involved.

I just started mine. You guys have suggestions?

Cheers.

ROCKS — High quality original content.
GRAVEL — Socializing and networking.
SAND — Research and thought generation.
WATER — Site improvements and updates.

It seems I have plenty of ideas, but I often don’t know if I should pursue them, how to implement them, or how to gauge the amount of time to spend on what. I think bloggers are highly under-rated by the general public with respect to how many things we have to balance at once.

All they do is tramp around around blogs hoping to get visitors. Maybe they’ll figure out eventually that content is still king in their own time. 🙂 Nice read. Kudos!

I love things like that, that really put your life into perspective. 🙂

1) Writing quality content – and putting out a lot of posts
2) Networking with other bloggers
3) SEO through participating in forums, link trading, reviewing sites etc
4) Reading other blogs

But it seems like the least important things are always the easiest to do.

Anyways great post. +1 Digg, +1 Stumble, + Trackback coming soon

And only from knowing what that destination is can I know how to get there.

It’s easy for me to get distracted – more challenging to keep my eye on my prize.

Most of the times, however, the content is the big rock. Just wanted to pass that message also.

Gee, was the bolded “writing quality articles” the big boulder?? =)

Keep up the great work.

Stephen Covey’s books are always so motivating. My personal favorite is
“businessThink: Rules for Getting It RightNow, and No Matter What!” It’s a great read.
