We're Mentoring Today! Perish The Thought!

by: Chad
For those who have been following us since the beginning, you'll be able to back us up on this; we haven't been blogging for very long at all.  Everyone else, you'll just have to take our word for it; we haven't been blogging for very long at all.

In the few months we have though, we've come to realize just how "all over the place" this (blogging) can be.  Sometimes we'll come to the end of our day and take a peek at how many read us during the day and we'll fall in the floor because we can't believe people are actually reading us.  Other days we'll look and say, "Now that's more like it!", when hardly anyone has hit us up during the day.  It's all over the place and sometimes it can be a very encouraging thing to us, and other times it can be a very discouraging thing to us.  But we've kept plugging along and because of that we've been around to meet some pretty amazing people in the "Disney Community".  And really, that's what it's always been about for us, connecting with people who are in love with The Mouse as much as we are and enjoy the same things we do.  When you look at it from that perspective, we've been about as successful as we ever thought we'd be, and that's what counts.

One such fabulous person we've met recently is Donna who runs a blog called "Disney Donna Kay".  For the past several weeks, she's called on various others in The Community to interview for a segment she's called "Mentoring Mondays", aimed at offering advice to others who may just be beginning blogs, or maybe for those who have even been doing it a while.  She's had some amazing bloggers lined up over the past several weeks, and she recently approached me to ask if I would be willing to participate as well.  Given the fact that we haven't been doing this for very long, and our readership right now is, you could say, still in the growing stages, at first I didn't really feel like I'd be the best one to do it.  But the more I thought about, the more it seemed like the right thing to do.  It's why we blog after all; not only to share our own thoughts as much as we can, but also to help others in The Community in whatever way we can.  I consider it an honor to have been asked!

So that's what we're doing today.  We'd love to have you hop on over to Disney Donna Kay and check out our Mentoring Mondays article/interview.  I'm truly thankful and appreciative to Donna for asking me to participate in such a wonderful group of articles, and I urge everyone to not only read what I had to say, but go back through her past articles and see what all of her other blogging interviewees had to say.  There are some amazing ones in there, and I'm truly humbled to be there alongside them.  Hop on over and check her out!
