    You seem to ellicit a lot of comments.
    If you were forced to give one reason for this, what would you suppose it would be?
    Your ability to get comments is probably the single most stand out thing about your blog in its infancy.

    Hey Todd, :)

    If I were to give just one reason?
    “I receive in direct proportion to what I give out” :) I hope that makes sense. If you want something, just give that things out to people.. and you will see that it will come back to you in some form above your expectations. The universe is beautiful like that…

    I’ve learned this lesson from several teachers, and it’s served me well in many areas of life. If you want more money in your life, give it away… donate a portion of your income. If you want more love, give it away and you shall see more returned back to you. Same thing with comments. :)

    Hope that satisfied your curiosity.

    I am also very blessed and grateful for all the supports from my guests. It’s been a great month, and very encouraging for my mission. Thanks for commenting Todd.

    One of my favorite words is simple. When I the word “Simple” dispersed all over your page, I got curious and read most of the stuff. Great work Tina.

    Tina,

    I stumbled into your blog today and as a serial entrepreneur I can relate and appreciate a lot of what you have to say. In our day to day insanity it is extremely easy to lose site of the bigger picture as well as ourselves.

    Keep it coming!

    Thanks,

    Hey Tina, I saw that you use “We” and “Us”. Who are the other people running/contributing to this site?

    Hi SJ Yee (Personal Development for the Book Smart),

    My life partner Adam is my Editor. I’ve also been blessed with great friends who helps me out with proofreading and such. I plan to bring on additional writers and contributors in the future to fulfill the vision and purpose for this site. Great question! Thanks. :)

    @oneminuteman: I love the word Simple as well. I’m striving to have simplicity in every area of my life. I’ve found joy in simplicity (accidentally) and it stuck with me. :)

    @Suzanne, @Rhonalala: Thanks for such nice words. I appreciate it. :)

    @Mantissa: I hear what you’re saying. I too fall into the trap at times, and have worked very hard to keep myself out. It’s challenging work . :) I’m sure you can relate. I’ve found it especially challenging for entrepreneurs, since leading a business requires that you have a clear vision of the future, and so you end up living in the future most of the time. I’ve found this particularly challenging to balance out.. between future and the now. :) Thanks for the comment. It made me think and served as a reminder for myself to stay present.

    Hi Tina,

    I stumbled upon your blog today and I am really glad that I did. Your writing is not only brilliant, but it provides an insight that is sadly lacking in most online work. I will definetly be subscribing, and look forward to everything you can put forth.

    Since I posted in late October about your “comment generating abilities”, I noticed your subscription list has increased exponentially.
    It appears you have reached critical mass.
    I believe in you and what you do.
    Congratulations on your fine achievement.

    Hi Tina,

    Great site, and I am very impressed with how you can also be part of all the web communities such as mybloglog, linkedin, digg, stumbleupon et. al.

    Just how do you find time to do it all? ;)

    Just on a small note, am following on most of them!

    Warm Regards and keep doing what you do!

    Just stumbled across your website and saw the Tony Tobbins tagline. Which didn’t seem to fit with your latest article on the simple life and the life wealth v material wealth sort of thing. I saw Tony Robbins many years ago and whilst he was a powerful speaker he ‘turned me off’ terribly. He couldn’t stop talking about his helicopters/houses etc. Which we could all have if we turned our lives around according to him. He had also apparently turned from ’slob’ to near Olympic Athlete. A complete yawnfest frankly. Not a criticism of your site. I liked the posts-just didn’t fanct Tony Robbins much….lol

    Hi h.bosch,

    Thanks for commenting. I appreciate your perspective. I hear what you’re saying, I do not agree with many things that Tony says, but you have to admit that there are parts of his teachings that are uplifting and can bring positive contributions to people. And sometimes, if a person is not at a stage to completely understand the meaning behind “A Simple Life”, but can relate with Tony’s examples of material wealth, then that might be a good entry point for that person into a path of self-discovery and self-mastery. Once they get to a certain stage, they’ll come to understand that true happiness cannot arise from material wealth and stuff. This was the path that I took and brought me to where I am today. And once I got here, I decided not to take Tony’s full training courses, and to look towards the more spiritual path instead. For this reason, I am still grateful for what I was able to gain from Tony’s teachings.

    Warmly,
    Tina

    Just read your guest post on pro-blogger - excellent article and your approach is basically a business plan for new bloggers. I’ve been blogging on and off for a few months with varied results, but will now use some of your tips to set goals and content.

    One thing to add which I believe is important is ones blog layout. Simple and well laid out blogs (with minimal advertising) like yours are important to attract readers. I am still trying to figure out the optimal layout given my limited web skills.

    Balancing content, revenue and the reader experience is the triple constraint I am constantly battling. Looks like you have it solved.

    Cheers,
    Andy

    Hi I just wanted to say congrats on having your article posted on Problogger.net!!! I have been a reader of theirs for awhile and was searching Problogger for ways to increase traffic to my blog when I came across your article… “From 0 to 2000+ Subscribers in 90 Days”. I really enjoyed it as I have just started my blog and thought you had some wonderful ideas.

    So again I just want to say thank you for the inspiration.

    Hi Tina,

    I also came over from Problogger today. I can testify to clarifying content and goals. I did something new with my blog that increased traffic and blew my original goals. I found what my readers are looking for and try to create a fun experience for them EACH TIME they come to my site. I have a “song of the day” that may be funny or motivational that actually goes with each post. I give one simple idea for creating “Sanctuary” in their personal spaces each day and try and make it so my readers can get up out of their chair and accomplish something meaningful (however small) every day.

    Now, I just have to work on Step 3….getting the word out, and you’ve given some really great, concrete advice. I’m excited about putting it into action. I’ve never tried Digg OR Stumbleupon, thinking that these venues might not work for my audience. Hmmmm. Re-thinking that! I want to thank you for the excellent article! I’ll be back for more.

    Hi Tina!

    Thank you so much for the great article on ProBlogger!

    That really makes my job of attaining my goal of getting 10,000 subscribers by 2009 a breeze for my one month old blog!

    I really can feel the overbrimming positive energy and love from your posts!

    Thank you so much again! =)

    And Tina, if you ever need any videos for your website to make your subscribers experience a more enriching one, you know who to call.. ;)
