All things me.

Trivial Things

posted this note on

I’ve written before about me wanting to blog more. I like the idea of myself being ”a blogger”, but the procrastination force is strong with me so I rarely do blog. Also I think I worry about not expressing myself eloquently enough and therefore I choose to not do it at all. Perfect is indeed the worst enemy of good.

To get the blogging going I think I need to start allowing myself to write about more trivial things, for instance as I did the day before yesterday. If I start value the act of writing more and start caring less about whether the things I write about is big and important or not I’ll hopefully write enough to get into the habit of writing. That way, when the Big Ideas actually do show up, I’m better equipped to write about them, since writing will be part of who I am.
