I found this blog post from The Daily Post and felt like it was written just for me. I have found myself repeatedly checking my stats and getting addicted to watching my numbers rise. Let us be honest, it is a huge ego boost to get likes and followers.
So what’s a blogger to do? If you are writing about things that interest you, writing quality content, and you are enjoying yourself~~ that is what is truly important. Not the amount of traffic, followers, or the number of likes.
I am going to diet, detox, and abstain from checking my stats.
How about you? Are you going to take your Stats and Shove it?
A Brunette's Reflection 
I do not pay any attention to stats. For example, when I post a poem I use a picture (can not seem to get WordPress to properly format them), and readers read the poem without actually coming to my blog.

I wish I didn’t feel the need to look at the numbers. I have done somewhat better the last few days though.
Thanks for stopping by 🙂

I’m new to bloggling. I totally understand, the unhealthy obsession of checking stats has started for me too. I’m taking your advice but I will do so while enjoying chocolate.
