Admit it ... your traffic is down. Why?
Instant gratification?
Why read paragraphs? We answers now. Short ones.

Podcasts?
YouTube can spoon feed us information.

Short Attention Spans?
We are the microwave thinkers today.

The Allure of Social Media
It gives the illusion of immediacy and intimacy without the irritation of actually being there for someone.
So Why Continue?
Cyber Journal --
Your blog is your cyber-journal. It helps create order when your world feels like chaos.
You get to know yourself when you write down your fears and doubts.
It helps you de-stress and calm down.
It puts you in touch with like minds. 

Cyber Diary --
What is  the difference between a journal and diary you ask?
You can go back through the years and see patterns to avoid or recognize as benefits to encourage in the future.
You see who you were and ask it you like what you see.

Think what you were like 2 years ago?
Heck, I can't even remember what I wanted to buy unless I write down a list before I go shopping.
How about you?
Think "Kaizen" 
The Japanese concept of continuous improvement.
Embrace the change you see around you, becoming a lifelong learner.
Engage with your visitors, visit their social media.
Have fun with your blog. It will show.
