My blogging friend Priscilla Palmer has come up with a great idea! Priscilla has put together what she calls the Personal Development List. The Personal Development List includes a link to blogs Priscilla says, “you feel can benefit us in our growth process.”
I’m happy to say I made the list. WooHoo! So to return the favor I have included the Personal Development List below and have included a few blogs I believe need to be added to the list. Checkout the list and leave a comment if you know of any great blogs that should be on the list that we might have forgot to add.

Many bloggers make the mistake of treating their articles like a test. They come up with an idea for a post and then research and cram all the information they can find on the internet into their study process for that post. Before they know it they have an ulcer worrying about all the information they believe they don’t know about their topic instead of focusing on what they do know.
I am just as guilty as the next blogger at treating my posts as some imaginary test that I am cramming for in the unrealistic belief that there might be a pop quiz on my subject. If you find yourself spending more time researching a post than writing your next great post, STOP! Chances are you know everything you need to know to complete your killer content. Spend your time writing about what you do know instead of trying to find the elusive needle in the information haystack.
Here are some techniques you can use today to eliminate information overload, increase content production, and help you learn when enough is enough…

Two of my biggest passions are talk radio and podcasting. I have been podcasting for quite awhile on my other site and I would love to start adding podcasts here at Passionate Blogger to help bloggers improve their site(s), learn how to make a living online, and entertain. My other podcast The Passionate America Show is a comedy show I do usually with my brother Big Mike.
Have many ideas for the new Passionate Blogger Podcast, however my ideas might not necessarily be what you need to help you improve your blogging. So I need your help to let me know what topics you would like to hear discussed on the podcast. I’ve added the WordPress Polls Plugin to the site so I can get your input and tailor the content to better meet your needs.
Please take a minute or two and vote in the poll below so I can put out the best podcast for you.
