"Why do we punish people people who develop effective habits?"

What a good question with which to wrestle. It reminds me in part of a great and short blog post by Todd Henry at Accidental Creative (http://www.accidentalcreative.com/you/be-reasonable). Sometimes, in Todd's words, "people tell you to be reasonable so that they don’t have to face their own fear of failure?"

Matt Welty Content is king but your blog needs attract readers and allow them to connect & interact with your ideas. How do you do this with Wordpress?

Ryan Paugh: The best way to build your own community is to be involved in communities elsewhere. It's grassroots. It's not quick. But it's the best way.

Matt Welty JR's blog topic sparked my interest in having bloggers writing about the same topic from different view points. How can we make that happen?

JR Moreau: If you write a thought provoking point about any given topic, people tend to respond. Like Holly Hoffman's workaholism post for example
