It does slow growth but I think it is worth it longer term. @Apoorv - Thanks :) @Travel Guy - Good point, I hadn't considered that but yes it could well be a good defensive strategy :) @Galba - Great quote :) I think the trick is to repeat without seeming like a broken record (in this world of digital media is that phrase now too out of date to use?) @Scramblejam – Thanks :) I think some of the most popular blogs feed the “quick tips” time scarce audience, the tricky part for blogs such as mine is to work around this while trying to offer more depth.

You're right on target with keeping the focus on "soaking in" and "percolating slowly". I know I need to be reminded from time to time. It's so easy to get distracted by the quick gain approaches or shortcuts. But the thing that always comes back to mind again - at least for me, is that the slow go is a much higher barrier to entry. And that's a good thing, otherwise, if it was too easy, everyone could do it, and the space we were targeting would ultimately be worthless. Thanks again. A great reminder!

I think a big part of the battle in creating a structured blog around a set of ideas is delineating where each idea/topic begins and ends, and how it relates to the whole. Your blog, Problogger, Zenhabits, Steve Pavlina - some of my favourite sites all have a consistency of information flow - each discrete topic stands alone, but if part of a wider subject. I look forward to more insights on this subject from you. SJ Chris,
