Today marks 100 days of daily blogging.
For a little over 3 months, come rain or come shine, I’ve executed my three daily blogging rules:
- Show up every day (there is magic in that)
- Be curious and notice something in the world
- Share what I notice in the most thoughtful and generous way I can
The experience has been overwhelmingly positive. The habit of shipping something everyday has forced me to be attentive to the world around me. Each learning or experience is now an opportunity to reflect and look at the world in a new way. Turning thoughts into succinct daily posts has forced me to clarify my thoughts.
Some days, it was a struggle. I felt uninspired, tired, and worried the well had run dry. Other days, new ideas came thick and fast, and I was able to pen down 2-3 posts in a sitting.
What I do know is that I’m going to keep it up. I set myself the goal of 100 days to make sure daily blogging was something I enjoyed. With that confirmed, I’m going to spend the next 100 days figuring out where I want to take it.
Finally, I can’t fail to acknowledge the inspiration Seth and Rohan have been in 1) inspiring me to begin, and 2) helping me to build this habit. When I see them turn up every day and say something meaningful and generous, it’s forged a path I’m thrilled to follow.
