Life is fantastic!!It’s so incredibly exciting, there are so many options, so many possibilities.

In my blogging journey with UpgradeReality so far, I have met some really amazing and talented people from all walks of life, from all ages and from many different parts of the world. I follow many of their blogs, and I find blogs are a journey and documentation of someone’s growth,ideas and perspectives. I love it, it’s so exciting to follow all these passionate people in their journey and quests through their lives.

    Hi Diggy!

    I’ve got to know your blog via Pluginid and also follow cheer up nation, which I like, too

    Blogging is more than just talking or publishing, it’s creating a network of people who are willing to share their own experiences. Some will learn thru your posts, and often you learn by their comments…

    Best regards and keep on blogging!

    Wow, I am spoilt for choice, but the best thing for me to do: be calm.

    I feel it would be better for me to have a concept map (connecting the dots) of the personal development I have read so far. I am doing that now, but difficult to start.

    I geography when we feel lost, we need a map right? I feel blogs just need concept maps! Just like my science textbooks have.

    Article recycling will be good too!
    or merging.

    It is quality versus quantity!

    The archives section in blogs must have three views: calendar, list and concept map.

    Featured articles and subscription options must be in the home page. Side panels must be eliminated, they distract.

    Well I can go on all day explaining how personal development blogs should work…

    Anyway… I am a fan of simplicity and minimalism at the right places.

    • Diggy – UpgradeReality.com

      Hey Aegil! ;)

      Yeah there are so many great blogs on the internet and it’s really cool discovering a new one. I found Man vs Debt recently and really enjoy reading it !

      Cheers!
