You do mention e.g. habits you changed for the better and you do that in quite a positive way. Some people may be a little bit more cynical about things and hence think that you are showing yourself as perfect. This realistic optimism combined with your success in the activities you pursue, combined with a huge amount of links on all kinds of topics makes your blog as popular as it is. Keep on running such an inspiring blog. I do not agree with this blogger’s view that you are portraying yourself as perfect.

You didn't have to point out your foibles just because someone didn't get your voice, but it says something very nice about you that the comment stung. And we got a thoughtful post for it. Thanks!

I don't know now how I ventured into your site but i think i found a great pearl. I have subsrcribed by email and will be looking forward to your posts. I will come back to read more of your posts which I think could have been written by me if only I had enough discipline, energy and commitment years ago. I will also try to visit the links in your site and maybe send you pizza one of these days. May God bless you and your family! Hi Leo!

It definately means I am making good progress into the direction I want to go. This pattern is also ok if I get overwhelmed, with too much to do. If I make the right choices with my prios, getting the important things done is 90% of what is achievable.

How could anyone ever mistake you for acting like you're perfect? That blogger didn't have their head on straight. You have always come across as very humble to me. Nice post!
