Tracking blog postings through a simple template

As I am thinking on ideas, themes and topics for my blog, I am also thinking on ways to effectively plan my blog postings. In past as well, I have tried to set up a blog account, but failed miserably. One of the reasons could be to do with my habit to overtly plan stuffs (hoping to make it perfect from the beginning itself). Sometimes, I fail to realise that blogging needs to be done religiously and perhaps made part of the routine.
