Several years ago I started a few blogs then did nothing with them.
I had motivation when I started them. At the time, I had just been laid off from my previous employer and was looking for a way to keep positive. I took enough time to write one post each about what is important in my life, about job searching and my technical passion — fighting malware.
Unfortunately, I allowed the pressures of finding a job to consume more time than it probably should have. I could have carved out enough time to write a little something daily, but didn’t. Writing has never been my thing, so it wasn’t a difficult decision to not do it. However, I’ve learned the value of writing; more about that later.
With new-found motivation, I plan to write a little each day. Maybe only a few words. Maybe a few pages. But always something. This doesn’t always mean a post every day. I can choose to let something simmer for a while in draft before posting it. Actually, that is probably a good idea. Not being an English major, I find stepping away from I stream of consciousness and revisiting days later creates one of those “what was I thinking moments.”
This is my (new) start for now.
Hope to be posting more soon.
