The “secret” to being able to continue with the blog and even move to daily publication consisted of something very basic and common sense. Sometimes when you don’t see something you would like to do because of your personal circumstances, you don’t see that there may be solutions within your reach.

4 points to keep in mind to fulfill your blog commitment
Committing yourself and wanting to do something is not enough. If you have decided to create a blog and not throw in the towel like 95% of first-year bloggers, you have to prepare it wisely. The following points have helped me to be able to accomplish what I set out to do at the end of 2011.

Agreeing on the time you are going to dedicate to it and when you plan to do it frees you from possible arguments in the future. There is no guarantee that problems will not arise, but if things are discussed as a couple beforehand, misunderstandings and surprises are avoided.
