					<description><![CDATA[I think &#039;Anonymous&#039; found a moment of &#039;Pride&#039; after finding another spelling error.

What a shame he didn&#039;t introduce himself, and missed the &#039;atta-boy&#039; from you &#039;Mr. Pride&#039;.

One final note Vic... I checked the dictionary, &#039;pride&#039; is a three letter word.

Your inspiration is fire, thank you for being the catalyst of change in my life.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I will write a piece soon telling you what an ignoramus, hope not too big a word for your sheep, I mean followers. 

What can you expect:

You don&#039;t say much new. Read and you will see it&#039;s has been said fifty years ago. Most of what you say a 7 year old can tell you, unless their are retarded. This in itself is not bad; actually good, it&#039;s common sense. Don&#039;t how common  common sense is in the free world called the US ( P.S writing from South Africa). Sheep, please don&#039;t just lap up everything this man says, challenge him when it&#039;s needed. I should hope he is not your God.

You are a vapid racist. Now don&#039;t go into &#039;strong white, blah blah blah...&#039; mode without having seen the shits you write... Will be quoting you (as you love to be)

A victim wanna be sissy. Who?; you of course, silly! You have quite in common with victim  wannabes who you chastise so much.

I hope you are now enticed.

					<description><![CDATA[Great article! I have been doing my blog for about 6 months now and you&#039;re right! It takes time, content and FOCUS! Its funny because I&#039;m a terrible at writing. One thing I found in making myself great is, I had to learn who become better at writing and my grammar. When I put my kids to bed I would watch a lot of content (free on YouTube) to better myself. It&#039;s helped a lot. The same with building a website, how to get plugins and design my own logo. You&#039;re wrong about being alone though,  we have you Vic! When everyone says &quot;give it up, you&#039;re waisting your time&quot; we can read b&#038;d get us back on track. Thanks again! Thehamptonsbutcher]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;Only then, when we know you’re interested, do we give you the meat.&quot;

Hehe...

On a more serious note.  This one article has more useful knowledge than two semesters worth of writing classes at any university.

Although if those &quot;professors&quot; were this concise they would be out of work and wouldn&#039;t be able to charge such ridiculous tuition fees.

Keep fighting the good fight Vic.

All the best,

					<description><![CDATA[You&#039;re probably pretty fucking bored right now if you are asking a bunch of average Joes to write 500 words comments/articles/intros or whatever you want to call them.

I feel you, I am bored too. Maybe life just got too repetitive, too comfortable.

I mean, you have money, and all you have to do is write an article once in a while. It&#039;s no hard work. 

Anybody can write. You just read this article (&quot;So you want to be a professional writer&quot;) and get to it.

Why are you not seeing more writers? Because people are lazy, because they are afraid. I don&#039;t really care, you probably don&#039;t either.

You care about you and I care about me.

But right now, Victor, I feel you. I am bored too. I don&#039;t have a purpose. I&#039;m too comfortable.

You see, I was an amateur boxer a couple months ago. Boxing  was all I cared about. 

Given certain circumstances I quit. I didn&#039;t have to and it was a stupid choice. But that&#039;s what I did.

Slowly, I became comfortable. I started to get into the habit of slacking of.

But, my mind and heart were still in the ring. I grew restless. A voice deep inside me was yelling at me to do something, anything.

I listened to the voice. I came back to the boxing gym. It was a shot in the dark, knowing I might get into  a situation in which I &#039;have&#039; to quit again.

But not this time. I&#039;m not quitting anymore.

I guess you should listen to your inner voice too, Victor. Maybe try something new. Look at me, I just tried writing. 

Let&#039;s make a deal. If you like my writing one bit, try boxing for a month and tell me how you liked it.]]></description>
