Hello. It’s been a few weeks since I last logged in to write something for my 2023 Resolution series. I’m not too concerned about the lapse though, because I am actually keeping my resolution, to start blogging regularly again.
A third of the way through the year, I’m seeing real results and making good steady progress. I’m plugging away at writing on a nearly daily basis, and I’m publishing new posts fairly regularly about a variety of topics – with a list of more things I plan to write about in the coming weeks. I’m writing considerably more than I would I would have thought I would be at this stage.
The quality of what I’ve written is alright I suppose. It’s hard for me to judge. I’m my own toughest critic, and I’m too close to the finished product to look at it with objectivity. But, I’m not disappointed by anything I’ve published. In fact, I’m willing to concede that I’m actually genuinely impressed with the ideas I’ve been coming up with as well as where each post leads me as a writer.
Deciding to do this series (and sticking with it) has allowed me to think about what motivates and demotivates me and how I can manage motivation with respect to writing.
Stay tuned for more updates on my 2023 Resolution, and thanks for checking in!
