Baby steps…
I have to admit that I have been a really bad blogger and I don’t have a good excuse at all. A week ago, when one of my readers called me out for not posting anything new in months, I did in fact recommit to posting. It’s not that I haven’t had plenty of experiences to write about, but rather I got lazy and lost a bit of my confidence in the process. For the past few months, everyday when I looked at my schedule, I would write, “I will blog today”, and of course that obviously did not happen, so then I would say…”tomorrow, yeah, I’ll do it tomorrow,” and that didn’t happen either. Pretty soon I found myself in a pretty negative pattern of procrastination, which ultimately turned into loosing my confidence, thus being a little bit scared to re-enter the blogging world.
I can’t take it any longer. The self-imposed guilt and veil of irrational fear that I’m carrying is sucking the life out of me. AHHHHHHHH. Sorry, I just needed to shake that off. In truth there are a lot exciting things happing in my life, and taking the time to reflect upon them can only help me gain clarity as to what’s really important to me and how can I achieve what I want.
So in moving forward, I am not going to make false promises to myself as to how many times a week I’ll blog, but rather I am choosing to remember how good it feels in this moment to accomplish something that is important to me.
So with that said, here are some of the questions I’ll be asking myself until we meet again:
If accomplishing a task, no matter how big or small, makes me feel so good, what is the point in procrastinating that task?
What other areas in my life have I been neglecting, and what is the cost?
What are my priorities right now?
How can I hold onto a sense of accomplishment?
I hope you all will welcome me back into your cyber reading and re-join the conversation.
I look forward to hearing from you,
Talia
