I started blogging in 2014 .It’s a mad mad world.
It’s my world .It’s my ย dream.It’s ย my journey to find my soul’s home and financial freedom as a mompreneur.
Since 2007 I haven’t ย had 1 home .Changing cities and houses meant I couldn’t put down roots .Couldn’t plan.
But then I read somewhere, that adaptation to change ,is the most important measure to live well.
Now ย human beings ย especially ย ย women need stability .
Emotional stability is something I have always seeked.
#1o
I found that emotional stability ,when I started my blog.It was my digital home.I was the owner. I could garden ,draw ,decorate,put down roots
Being a blogger, was my cocoon.
My home which changed only when I wanted it.
I am thankful that I have an online home which belongs to me.I own it .I have my stamp on it.

When I became a doctor I realized all the lifestyle advice I so passionately ย gave was in fact ย ย repetitive.
So many people needed to know about the same things .My blog niche was determined. Plus it gave me aย perfect ย way of giving back to society, from where I was in life.
I didn’t have to wait ย 20.years more for my daughter to grow up before I worked full-time and more.
Because blogging can be done even sitting next to your sleeping baby .Guilt free.
#8
I have a voice ย and it’s ย a responsible one.When you are blessed, it’s important you remember and say thank you.Having ย a social media following is not just an ego boost .It’s a powerful way to make your voice reach the people who need it most.
Being a blogger has given me ย a wonderful opportunity to ย give my voice for issues that matter.
#7
I meet amazing people daily.People who are trying ,failing ,trying and doing better than they ever thought possible.
People who inspire. People who teach by doing.Some Go Giver lessons I learnt from Amy ,Pat Flynn and the Ultimate bundle people are imprinted in my brain forever.
I mention them every chance I get not because they ever told me too.But because they taught me an important blogging lesson.
# 6
Blogging gave me the chance to read and discover ย awesome writers everyday.Its like an enormous library .Forever updating ,growing.Like a living breathing knowledge hub.
For a bookworm like me ,blogs are a treasure trove. Christmas every day.
# 5
I am loving reading , learning ,writing ,teaching and exploring financial freedom.Being a doctor is one ย great way of being financially free.This blogging journey is doing everything on my own ย terms and finding ย a model that works for mompreneurs.Let’s see what it takes.
#4
I practice thankfulness on a weekly basis.Making this habit has been life changing .
When I write about my blessings I feel doubly grateful.
It’s the best way to pray
My blog is my Thankfulness ย journal.
#3
It’s helped me live and breathe again.
When anxiety was eating me up.Life seemed hopeless .The struggle to be a doctor and ย mom was proving too much.
I discovered blogging. It helped me find my answers .My why .My how .My what.
#2
It has helped me ย keep my brain super active .Blogging is creative and technical.Art and science. Needs brain and soul. Talent and sensibility. So blogging is keeping me young. The more I learn more new ย connections between my neurons.
More I apply there occurs new collaboration between different parts of my brain.The more my brain works ย it eats up all the glucose ย I eat .Then I lose weight magically (I wish!)
But seriously if Sudoku appears pointless, blogging might be just what you need.
# 1
I finally discovered my โsex and the city โ band of blogging ย friends.Those people who get me.Who share dreams ,goals and wishes like me.Who want to make a difference.
Who are amazing bloggers ,caring individuals, and as crazy as I am.
Thus #Thankful Thursdays, the first one in 2017 is special .Special because it’s ย my third month hosting it.With Tina travelling during December it was a challenge doing this every week.Buy I am thankful to all the lovely bloggers who wrote with me ,to say thank you every week.

All great reasons why bloggers should be thankful! I really like what you said about how it takes brains. It really does. You have to do a lot of research and learn new skills daily. It’s a lot of work, but that’s when passion steps in and gives you strength.
dramrita says
Absolutely passion gives us wings.Glad you liked this .

I love the community of bloggers we are creating. I also began blogging to find my voice. After quitting my full-time job and embarking on a completely new career while raising our kids- I needed an outlet! I can really find parallels with your top 10 and my own.

My wife and I were just having this discussion. She says she does it as an outlet. Even if no one were to read it, she feels better having put pen to paper.
dramrita says
Thank you
