Today I start my journal. For months I’ve thought about starting this
journal, and have spent so much time thinking about it that it’s ridiculous.
So much wasted energy. If I spend so much time thinking about something, I should
just do it instead of wasting my energy thinking about it. So here it goes!
I’m going to try to spend 10 mins each day blogging. It’s not going to be
polished, it’s not going to be profound and pretty. Just off the cuff,
straight from my head.
Why do I want to do it? I would like to become a better
writer. I would like to talk out some of my ideas. I would like other people
to read my stuff. I would like to get to know myself better. (“Hi Robbie, how are you? I’m fine, how are
you? Fine, thanks!”) I would like to learn to be more spontaneous.
What am I afraid of? Afraid of not being perfect. Afraid of spending less time doing something else (whatever
that is, very amorphous), and using that time to blog.
My 10 minutes are nearly up. Amazing how little I can get done in 10 minutes! Ha! :-)
