Your post gave me great fuel for my soul. I agree with John that you have to be passionate about what you are doing as a business, otherwise it will be tough to continue.

Yes, this is what life is about – finding your place of flow.

The reason why you have been successful is not only do you enjoy reading about business, but you must have some natural capability and interest in writing as well. Otherwise, I contend that you would not have been able to maintain yourself this long.

I’m an organizational engineering geek, endlessly interested in designing organizations to tap each employees’ full potential. I have strong opinions, and I love writing. Blogging has been the perfect storm of my interests, talents, and temperament.

I’m amazed at how many people have jumped on the blogging bandwagon because “social media is a must” these days, but then post less than once a month. I’d love to see the statistics on this – active blogs versus inactive blogs.

I’m with you – if it’s not enjoyable – it’s not sustainable.

You’re absolutely right, if you’re not passionate about what you do it’s time to do something else. If you’re going to start a business it’d better be something you’re passionate about if you want it to succeed.
