Darren Rowse at Problogger.net wants to know what we would do differently if we had to start our blogs again.
Honestly, I wouldn’t change a thing. Why? Because I am very happy with the progress I’ve made with my debt reduction and I am very thankful for every visitor I have had and every comment I’ve received. I never thought my credit card debt would be where it is at right now. It may only be one dollar under $30K, but it’s still under $30K 🙂
If you think about it – if I changed one thing about how my blog developed, today would be different. I like the way my blog has progressed. I wish I had a screenshot, but my first template looked somewhat like this except the background was black. Looking back, it was sort of depressing and while I thought it was neat when I first had it, it soon didn’t fit “me.”
Then I went to a dark purple and dark green theme that I designed. Again, no screenshot. But, it was a little better than the first one in terms of a positive attitude. That one was soon replaced by my current theme which I was so glad to be able to reproduce in WordPress (I was on Blogger before).
At the moment I cannot see my theme changing but it probably will. As I learn and evolve, my blog will evolve. I think it’s great that I have this snapshot to look back upon years down the road. I believe that the human mind is complex and interesting as well as very powerful. I look at my blog as a way to understand myself a little more, and I slowly am.
So, I wouldn’t do anything differently 🙂
