Two Years!

Today my blog is two years old.
Two years, 130 posts, 29,409 views and 933 comments, including my own.
It seems pretty amazing really, I still remember how terrifying it was to press ‘publish’ for the first time, the rediscovered joy of writing regularly and finding my own voice. It’s been a source of real personal development, a great way of connecting with others and sharing views and ideas. My personal highlight so far has been curating the Advent series of guest posts last December, which I loved doing.
These days I’m more ambivalent about blogging – I still enjoy it, but don’t feel the need to force the regularity of writing. I’m sure at some point I will stop entirely, but not yet…definitely not yet!
And the most read posts? The all-time top 10 are below…
| I’m Hiring…and Experimenting! |  |
485 |
| Why Are HR The Worst People Managers Of All? | |
439 |
| Day 12: Reflections of an HRD | |
398 |
| The Art of Conversation | |
380 |
So, thank you for reading, for commenting, for sharing and for being a part of my first two years of blogging…I appreciate it hugely!

Well, thank you…believe me, you have more than repaid the compliment on that score

I wrote here a little while ago how I practised my blog by commenting on yours last year. I don’t think I knew i was doing that but it certainly worked out that way. Mine got going as direct result of that practise, in a very safe environment.
I was amazed and delighted to read that With a Little Help from My Friends was your most read blog. I remember that week clearly, I was in Plymouth, Minnesota, your post and Flora’s first were highlights of the week.
I have learned to enjoy how blogs ebb and flow with other aspects of our lives.
