		<description>I have the same problem.  For my personal blog I just right when I feel like it and I right about what I feel like.  Whatever is on my mind.  My other blog I have struggled a lot with feeling I need to right a great post and I find myself with writer&#039;s block.  What should I write about?  That doesn&#039;t sound right or I don&#039;t like that.  Then I end up with nothing.  No post goes up and I feel even worse and press harder to get a good post.  I haven&#039;t figured it out but I try to relax and just write when I write.  I carve some time out to write and comment but you can force the good content.

		<description>Susan - I almost hate to admit in my comments that I haven&#039;t done a newsletter since November! All of the sudden I just seem to have hit a wall with the really high goals I set for myself this year. I have to sit down and revise them.....that I have already figured out. 

And I think you are right...def comes from being a mom and probably part of my childhood upbringing. I heard &quot;do it right the first time&quot; way too many times as a child and it&#039;s deeply seated in my beliefs now. 

Okay, I hope to not disappoint when I send out a newsletter soon!</description>

		<description>Oh Michelle, you get that from being a mom you know. The whole &quot;get it right the first time so you don&#039;t have to do it again&quot; thing with lofty goals. I think we all battle that just trying to get it all done. You&#039;re doing great, though. I think it&#039;s the steady progress that matters more than anything. That way you&#039;ve got a firm foundation that you can build on while you grow.  I see you got your newsletter up - yay! I signed up.  
I think blogging everyday while blogging and writing for your clients is just too much for me. My goal is 2-3 times a week, and I&#039;m not opposed to slowing that down to 1-2 times, either.
