Starting today…
To me, blogging,
or, more accurately -- being a blogger -- is an ongoing process. Just because
you've written a poem once does not make you a poet; taking a few
pictures does not make you a photographer. I don't want to belabor this
sentiment, but writing is a process of reflection, of chronicling, and of
creating. It's a process I'd like to initiate and sustain, starting now.
Starting today.
Why now?
There are several
reasons I am doing this now:
- I started this blog this summer and was not able to sustain routine posting, which was my goal. Now that a big life milestone is out of the way, I’m ‘rebooting’ my efforts at blogging.
- I work in consulting, a field that emphasizes incomplete sentences over prose; monosyllabic words over colorful narration; and bullets over paragraphs. I miss using complete sentences in my professional life.
- When I emailed a bunch of friends about "should I start a blog?" the reaction was "yes, do it!" so I'm carpe-diem-ing.
Topics
I will share
observations and ideas I have about personal and professional growth, including
lessons learned at my job and in my relationships.
I am interested in personal betterment, changing habits, and pivoting
perspectives.
