Why Readers Visit My Blog

You can see my site as a place for acquiring new ideas and inspiration.

I started this blog as something on the side where I used to write occasionally, but now I publish one article every week.

My work focuses on three main topics:

  1. Productivity: How can we achieve more without sacrificing our well-being?
  2. Personal life: How can we build a more fulfilling life by improving our habits?
  3. Business/Careers: How can we find meaning in our work?

Readers have told me they like SurajC.com for these reasons:

  • Weekly articles with actionable tips
  • My relatable and down-to-earth perspective on the topics I write about
  • The wide range of personal development topics I cover, from productivity to personal life
  • The weekly reminders in their inbox to keep improving themselves

Here’s what one reader, Dennis Miranda, wrote in an email:

Hi Suraj,

I just wanted to let you know that internet is already full with the type of content you produce and yet your content is of top quality for me. Out of countless newsletters giving advice on productivity and self-improvement, I’ve found yours to be the most practical. It’s encouraging to know that I am not alone in this journey of growth. I wasn’t much of a email person but I look forward to your emails every week.

I started this blog in 2019 after I felt stuck.

My life wasn’t giving me any fulfillment. I was only struggling to balance thing in my life.

I wanted to live a balanced and fulfilled life but didn’t know how.

So I started researching and studying. I read a ton of books and articles, watched several videos and documentaries.

Most advice was not really helpful, but some were goldmines.

This blog is basically a summary of everything I’ve learned and everything that I continue to learn.

I know some readers who are subscribed to my newsletter since the very beginning. That’s one of the best things about having a blog—you can connect with people all around the world.

Until now, I’ve had readers from over 17 countries. An estimated 739,000+ people have read at least one of my articles on this blog and other places where I write.

That’s the power of the internet!

One thing my readers often ask me is where I get my insights from. I’m an avid reader and I read every single day. Good non-fiction books are one of the best sources of knowledge. If you want to learn from a great mind, simply read their books or books that are written about them.

But books are not my only source of inspiration and wisdom. I’m always curious about learning new skills and ideas. And you can learn from everything and everyone. Learning is what keeps this blog alive.

As long as I’m learning, I’ll keep sharing.
