Comments and losers and other notes

By QBlog in Miscellaneous

Hey, I think something got screwed up with the commenting system at Haloscan, the people who facilitate the comments. If you left a comment and don't see it here any more I did not delete it. It just disappeared. If you left some comment and now it's gone then please re-comment or send me an email.

Also, this is from one of the comments left on this site:

Losers will always find a way to defend losing, while winners will continually outperform all spectators and naysayors. I have been an IBO for three years, and have never accheived beyond the 1,000 point level. I will be the first to tell you that this is strictly a failing of my own activity level, and no reflection on the business. Within 2 years, I will be at q12 level, pulling in over $50,000 per year in passive income. Winners make $$, losers make excuses. Losers usually have much more time for creating excuse-based websites than winners do.

I really love the last comment, "Losers usually have much more time for creating excuse-based websites than winners do." I have no idea if this is a reference to this site and don't really care, what amuses me is when others take the time to explain why you are wasting your time doing something that you enjoy. If a guy enjoys posting pictures of ham salad on the Web then by golly, go for it. If some lady gets a thrill out of telling the world the habits of her cats then I say Hooray. It's interesting to me that when people hear a voice in opposition to something they believe in they immediately assume that the other person is wasting her time.

People are funny like that. If you feel someone is wasting his time building and maintaining a Web site then ask yourself whether you're wasting your time reading it. Anyway, I appreciate all comments, good, bad or ambiguous. This site is mainly for me, and if you like it too then cool. If you don't like then cool too. By the way, for the curious, this site is not costing me any money at all. However, Quixtar is costing me a lot of money. I know, I know...can't compare them...but it's just an observation.
