Being Consistent
I’m starting small because this is daunting. Writing a few posts is one thing, but consistently turning up and putting in the work is not something that lasted very long for me before. When the novelty wears off and it becomes difficult to string words together in a meaningful way I soon move on to something else. Last time I tried I made the website myself, spending far too much time on the coding, never really getting to the content. Bear solves those issues and I’m grateful to have found it mentioned numerous times through Kagi Small Web app, which I highly recommend. I drew inspiration from many blogs I discovered there. Now I only need to focus on the writing, no other excuses. At heart I’m a perfectionist, and this can be debilitating when the compulsion to always make things better grabs hold of me. So here’s me trying to put that to bed this time round, focus on my posts, and be mindful of where I want my life to go. Continuously improve, but in a healthier way. If a post is 1 sentence long, so be it. I’m not putting a time scale on this, that would be unnecessary pressure, I just need to keep it in the foreground. For now, this is my focus.
