New Year and New Posting Schedule for 2011

So here it is my first post of 2011. It’s been about a month since I lasted posted. It looks like the world continued to exist and get by, which is good.

Towards the end of last year I was starting to feel like I wasn’t bringing much value to the blog and internet world. I felt as if my posts and the information that I was providing was stagnant and blah. So I decided to unplug and take a break.

During the break I received a bunch of messages and comments from people, which was much appreciated. People were letting me know that I inspired them or that my message wasn’t falling on deaf ears.

The break was definitely good as it allowed me to rest up and refocus. Since I started the blog in 2009, I regularly posted three times a week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Moving forward I am going to post twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday. The Tuesday post will be related to the importance of growing and knowing where your food comes from. The Thursday post will be about my latest projects and showing you what I’m doing.

I’ve shown that you can grow no matter where you are and your circumstances. It doesn’t matter if all you have is a fire escape or a balcony. You can grow something.

As always if there is anything that you’d like to see, hear or discuss, hit me up and we’ll make it happen.

I wish all of you all the best in 2011.

Welcome back bro! I am already looking forward to this years growing season as I imagine you are. I’m originally from SoCal, but now I’m in Texas….so I will probably be waiting a bit longer to start planting!
Mike Lieberman January 5, 2011 at 2:59 pm -

What part of Texas are you in?
StephenHorvath January 5, 2011 at 8:46 pm -

Dallas. Well, about 40 minutes outside. I’m actually just east of Plano if you are familiar with the area.

Now that we are into the new schedule, I think I can honestly say I miss the extra posts. They always gave me something to think about, but I can understand feeling like you were getting stagnant. Keep up the good work man, your doing a good thing.
Mike Lieberman January 17, 2011 at 1:40 am -

Thanks man. I’m not sure this new posting schedule will last long. I’ve got lots of ideas goin through my head and will likely come up with something soon and branching out a bit more.
Jasonpalenske January 20, 2011 at 4:55 pm -

It’s good to branch out. So that you know your message is working I started doing my own stuff too. You can follow it over here if you like.
