Reading and writing are things that I am passionate about! I created a blog a couple of years ago but in my classic style I "went hard in the paint" for 5 seconds and then it fell to the wayside. Last night I was leisurely strolling through twitter when a hashtag caught my attention #31WriteNow so I began to click through the layers of the topic and I uncovered an opportunity that intrigued me. So here I am day one working on my 1st post and for the next 31 days come hell or high water I will make a post. I immediately became overwhelmed after I tweeted "I'm joining @luvvie for the blog challenge in August luvvie.me/31WriteNow#31WriteNow" I began with the self doubt and a million questions: I already have a million things on my plate how can I add one more? Will people judge me for what I write? 31 days is a lot and a lot of topics! I need to step up my technology game so that I can write a blog and schedule it to post? (then I look to the side of the blog and there is a post setting that says schedule!!) Should I create a new blogspot specifically for this or get over myself and use the spot I already created? I will not go on because all of the questions could be my blog entries for the month. One of the main reasons that I do not blog consistently is because I begin to edit myself before I type/write/scribble one word. The title indicates that transparency is a bit of a concern. I have always felt that the more people know about you the more ammunition they have to use against you. That sounds incredibly paranoid and I want to delete the sentence and move on but I am going to move past the fear. This challenge will be an exercise of growth for me and hopefully by the end I will have overcome the fear that is holding me back from reaching for the stars!
...one day down 30 more to go!
