Challenge of the year: Reviving the blog

by Vjekoslav Babic on August 23, 2010

image I woke up this morning and checked my to-do list for today. Business, business, business, and some more business. And yet it seems that my to-do list never goes blank, a couple of customers or projects are always in the backlog. I don’t know why exactly, but after opening the browser I typed the address of my blog—something I didn’t do for a long time—and I was stunned.

Almost three months since my last post. The oldest post on my blog’s home page is four months old and counting. I could remember times when a post couldn’t survive four days on my home page. My blog wasn’t dormant, it seemed downright dead.

Two years of Navigate Into Success

by Vjekoslav Babic on May 24, 2009

imageCan you believe it? I can’t. Almost. Two years ago I started this blog as a hobby, and I myself didn’t believe it would work out. It was months before the first reader appeared, but then it kind of just happened. Blogging was fun. It was tough. It was thought provoking for myself, because as I blogged I often found myself change my mind about stuff, and adopt new ideas or abandon old ones more quickly then I normally would.

I started this year rather ambitiously: with a commitment to blog twice a week. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to find out I haven’t been quite committed to that in the past two weeks. As a matter of fact, for the time being I’ll have to take it a little bit more easy. My work schedule has stopped being my friend a while ago, and I decided I’d put my private life before this blog. I hope you don’t mind.

I won’t stop blogging, and I’d appreciate if you didn’t stop coming back from time to time to check out what’s new. It’s just that I’ll have to rollback my commitment from the beginning of this year, and fallback to my previous irregular blogging schedule. Work and private life permitting, there will be something useful here, probably twice a month, possibly more, and I’m really glad you are now tapping my shoulder saying: “don’t worry pal, I understand!”

See you around, let’s navigate together into another two years of this blog.

March 2009: Sure Step, Agile and Dinosaurs

by Vjekoslav Babic on April 2, 2009

Another one’s down, so let me give it a quick glance over my shoulder before I move on: March 2009.

This was the best month ever for this blog: it has seen most posts from me, most visits from you, most subscribers to the feed, and I’ve covered a wide range of topics which I am not yet sure if it has got me or lost me more visitors.

A look back: February 2009

by Vjekoslav Babic on March 1, 2009

Another month is over, and in my recently established tradition, I’m taking a look back at the past month to give you an overview of developments around NavigateIntoSuccess.com.

This was both a great month, and a rough month for me. Rough, because I had terrible hosting issues, and great because in spite of that, you visited this blog regularly and engaged in discussions more than ever before. Thanks!

So, let’s take a short overview of what this blog did in February 2009.

A look back: January 2009

by Vjekoslav Babic on January 31, 2009

imageIs there a better way to start a week than coming to NavigateIntoSuccess.com to find a fresh new post about Microsoft Dynamics NAV or something of the sort?

Of course there is, come on.

And yet, to my surprise, Mondays seem to be the busiest days over here at NavigateIntoSuccess.com. I’ll take it you liked my new policy: a new post every Monday and every Thursday. Since it worked for both you and me, I’m going to keep it in place.

In January, I’ve introduced a lot of changes to this blog, and although I didn’t expect them to really work, you proved me wrong. So, let’s take a look back at this fantastic month.

2008 in retrospect

December 30, 2008

I’ll end this year with a look back at this blog. Year 2008 has seen many trends on this blog—I was literally exploring the world of blogging. I had no focus in the beginning, but towards the end of this year you might have noticed a shift towards the world of Sure Step, methodology in [...]

Welcome to NavigateIntoSuccess.com

December 18, 2008

This blog has moved to the new domain, but there are many more news to this blog than a mere domain name change. There will be a regular posting schedule, the blog will cover a more comprehensive range of topics, potentially interesting to a broader public, and over time a full Microsoft Dynamics NAV Functionality Catalog will be developed.

Implementing Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009

December 10, 2008

Where I have been for the past eight months… This blog started enthusiastically, I had as many as 14 posts per month. Taking into account that blogging was only a hobby, I blogged like crazy. Then I went silent. No, I wasn’t tired from blogging, I didn’t experience a writer’s block, quite the contrary! I [...]

Much ado about nothing

March 25, 2008

There is really nothing special with this post. I just wanted to let you know that I updated my About page, and I added some more information to the sidebar to the right. Nothing spectacular, but I hope all of this would both help you know me better, and also help you get in touch [...]
