10 Things You'd Tell Yourself When You Started Blogging

Another day, another blog entry. Secretly (well, not so secretly), I did not think I would be able to keep up. I delayed here and there, but overall enjoying this challenge.

Today's Monday #blogtober entry is "10 things you'd tell yourself when you started blogging." I think that is pretty easy and I may not even have 10. I started blogging as a challenge to myself. I have a list of things to accomplish before I am 29. Who knows why I picked 29 and not 30! It was a personal goal and I didn't really have micro goals within it. But, here are some things I thought about before I started.

1. Simplicity is best. I think I did the opposite of what most do. I wanted this to be easy. I "do" digital marketing as my job - SEO, PPC, coding, design, etc. I actually wanted my blog to be plain and easy. I didn't want it to be another job. Hence the extreme blandness of the blog.
2. Connect with people through writing ... ok, I am still working on this one.
3. Accomplish my list of 28 things to do before 29 and blog about them all. This has obviously become something more extended for me.
4. Be real. No topic was hands off. This was a place I could write and share my feelings and not be judged.
5. Be consistent. This one, I have struggled with. There would be times when I blogged frequently and then go a month or so without.

I think that sums it up. I don't have 10, but I think that is just fine. I have really come to enjoy doing this. 

Chat tomorrow!
