I used to blog – about seven years worth and then got out of it all at once. Your post states well the reasons why blogging sucks among other reasons, and I’ll never waste another day at it. S

Shana, it happens to all of us. Thoughts of giving up and sudden surges of pessimism crop up along the way on our journey. But it’s our inner resolution that keeps us from falling apart.

I am not about to give up for the fear of growing lazy, and so should you.

I am having one of those moments right now…. you know those moments that you question why the Hell you spend so much time Blogging. That’s actually how I came across this post. But, as with all the moments I feel this way, I’ll wake up tomorrow feeling totally different. Thankfully, there are more moments that I love blogging than moments that I question it.

Great Post!!

I know a “quit smoking specialist” who uses hypnotherapy but I wouldnt go that route.
I’ve however discovered that I could eat loads of “biltong” if i crave… hehe!

My brother is a chimney smoker, and he can’t quit no matter what.

I watched a Bollywood film No Smoking a few days ago, where a smoking addict goes to an expert (a Baba) who is famous for making people quit smoking. Baba charges him huge sums of money as fee and threatens to torture his ill brother, kidnap her wife, and cut off his fingers if he ever smokes again.

I have been telling my brother to find such a Baba and take him to the Baba to cure his addiction. But again, I don’t want Baba to torture me in case my brother doesn’t quit smoking.. lol.

Aren’t there some sort of fake cigarettes that smoking addicts use to help them quit smoking slowly?

Yes, tones of comments should usually pertain to the post’s content. Exaggeration is one of the misconceived areas.

Well, I am trying my best to quit, i havent bought a 20’s since ~6 weeks ago! But a few slip in here n there

And… i been gardening, landscaping… real soothing and time off from blogs. Blogs arent really stressful. Just sometimes cluttered with redundant postings that are all too known already.

Elliot, perhaps you would like to check out my guide to overcoming writer’s block.

Caroline, lol.. I am relieved to know that I am not the only one.

aksn1p3r, you smoke so much?

pelf, well, as always you are the odd one out here. You have been in the company of pro-bloggers for so long, why don’t you officially call yourself a problogger now?

Jaz, there is a solution for that: remove the calender. It’s making you feel guilty for no reason. Posting everyday is not an immutable rule of blogging. Post as often as you like. Even once a week is not so bad if you make better posts than you do on a daily basis.

Justin, you missed the laziness factor. When one’s feeling lazy, it becomes too hard to even go to the bed.. lol.

Teejay, you are right. This post is supposed to be a humorous look at the difficulties of blogging, not meant to be taken seriously.

Pablothehat, the fact that it’s slow in bringing you the real money is stressful, isn’t it?

askM, I hope you do well with your blog this time around.
