I want to write today to share my plans for my Little Things Matter blog, to request your help, and to inform you about my upcoming book.

First, I want to say an earnest “Thank You” for helping me grow my blog and Facebook page over the last seven months. Because of your endorsements, I now have almost 20,000 Facebook connections; my blog has had more than 60,000 visitors in each of the last two months with more than 200,000 of my posts being read and/or listened to each month, and my podcasts are ranked #38 in America’s top 100 podcasts (exclusive of iTunes).

Blog Update

After more than a month of seeking feedback and counsel from close friends and family who follow my blog, I have made the decision to start sending two posts a week. These posts will come on Tuesday and Thursday at the normal times.

There are two reasons for this change:

1.   My number one take-a-way from these discussions is that the amount of content I am delivering is more than most people have time to consume on a daily basis.

2.   I have learned from the blogging community that if you provide too much content, you run the risk of turning off your followers.

I will however occasionally provide a bonus post, special announcement or report, such as this Wednesday when my daughter Hannah will be a guest contributor.

For those of you who would like to read more than two lessons a week, let me encourage you to review the more than 150 lessons available under the Archives tab.

Request for Help

When I write on a subject that resonates with you, please come to my blog and share your thoughts or contribute to my lesson. I would really value engaging with more of you. If what you’re learning is making a difference in your life, I would enjoy reading your stories.

Little Things Matter Book Announcement

I am also excited to let you know that my first book, Little Things Matter, is on schedule to hit the market in November. I am extremely pleased about the way it has turned out.

This will not only be a valuable, resource book helping people achieve their personal and professional best, but it will also be a practical gift. For parents, this will be the kind of book you will want your children reading. For those in a leadership position, this is the type of book you will want your team members reading. I really believe it can make a significant contribution to all readers, helping them build a better life.

It’s Been Amazing!

This blog has been a rewarding experience for me. It has helped me grow, becoming a better, more understanding person. It has given me a greater appreciation for our human race and the differences in people. I feel extremely blessed and thankful that you are part of this journey with me.

If you have any ideas, suggestions, or topics you would like me to cover, please press reply to this email and let me know.

Thanks!

Todd
