The State of Affairs is officially 1 year old this month and I was thinking of ways that we could celebrate all of the work, time, and commitment we have put into growing this site. At first I couldn’t think of anything symbolic enough worth noting, but after a while I was able to come up with this list of things you can do to celebrate your blogs first birthday!
- Donate to all of the plugin developers that have written the plugins you use on your blog.
- Take a week off from blogging. Celebrate with a break from the usual.
- Buy each writer a cup of coffee. If you’re the only writer buy your self one and a croissant to go with it!
- Go for a hike. If you don’t want to take a whole week off from blogging, at lease take one day off and go enjoy some sun.
- Redesign your site or just do some rearranging. Nothing like a nice spring cleaning for a blog.
- Congratulate yourself on “sticking-with-it” for the past year. Honestly, most blogs don’t make it a year and the fact that yours did signifies your commitment and determination.
Once you are done celebrating, your next focus should be on where you want your blog to go over the next year. There is nothing wrong with planning ahead and getting a early start right?
