Note: A modified version of these questions can also be found in The Renewing of the Mind Project, which is a book that can help you purse your goals, as well as break free from bad habits and negative emotions like worry, anger, insecurity, and stress. For an explanation of these questions see my previous post on How to Break a Blog Stat Checking Habit.

  2. Great questions. I have fallen into the trap of checking my stats and allowing them to determine how I felt. Recently I have made it a point to keep producing content and not worry about the stats.

  3. Maybe I’m odd~ LOL! But stats make me nervous~ I try not to check them at all! I still like to think no one is reading. And if they are, why don’t they comment!! LOL!! So that’s my weakness~ if you read~ please comment! Otherwise I think I’m just talking to my “critic” readers and well, I know why they don’t comment! (wink!)

    • Haha, I know how you feel, Elizabeth – it’s those critic readers that get in my head and make me nervous about writing – and who knows if we even have critic readers? I’ll be sure to comment!

  4. I try to only check my stats occasionally. They were too mood changing. Once I realized they had the power to influence my day, I determined that I was making my blog too much about me and not simply serving the Lord. Thanks for making me ask myself these hard but important questions.
