Ahhhhh!!
What a start to my challenge. I just wrote my first blog post only to have it disappear into the cyber world unpublished. So I sit here frustrated at the thought of having to recreate the magic that just disappeared… ok so maybe it wasn’t magic but at least it was something.
The post was on realism, about giving yourself realistic expectations.
I should really hear my own advice as my challenge of writing a blog post each day is probably unrealistic, but at least I am being real and admitting that.
Being yourself and being able to admit your short comings, successes, failures and everything in between, is such an important quality. My challenge to write a blog post each day isn’t about putting the most riveting content out into the universe, for me its about commitment and discipline. Can I be disciplined enough to sit down each day and share with the world whats going on in my mind and my life. Do I have the guts to share the good and the bad. So often all we see online is the highlight reel of peoples lives, sometimes it feels nice to be able to relate to something real.
So as I tackle my own time management demons, my lack of confidence in my own writing ability and my laziness, I pledge to be as real as possible in my musings to come. I will try my best to get out an entry a day and if it can’t happen, I will be as real as possible in admitting it and owning the excuses.
Now as I click send, my fingers are crossed that this doesn’t disappear again….
