How Did The Year Go?
I started this blog with the one goal of posting something every day. Well here we are at the end of the year and I did accomplish what I set out to do. I did not meet all the goals I set for personal development. I have made big strides in some areas of my life. Over the course of the year I have ranted a lot about President Trump. I think I bashed him more than any one group or individual. I think I only repeated myself a few times. I may have covered the same topic from different angles but not outright the same. I did do two postings on opioids that were very similar.
At the start of the year I was going to use this tracking system to make sure I did not have duplicate postings. That fell by the wayside pretty quick. For the most part I had no problem coming up with things to write about. There were a couple of times it was down to late the night before or even early in the morning a posting was due.
I can’t say there was a posting I wished I had not done. I may not have been as persuasive in some of my arguments in some postings. Also, I may not have been as empathetic or compassionate as I could have been. This is especially true for the topics that are labeled as a disease when I say it is a choice. That is ok. We need healthy, honest and open dialogue.
What have I learned? I gained great respect for people who have done this for a long time. Getting content out every day is a grind at times. I have to admit there were a couple of times I was ready to just stop. But the weeks and months did pass.
Will I continue? I am not sure. I am thinking about a longer form that is posted weekly. I am also considering going back to podcasts. Or maybe I will do a combination of two. I guess I better decide soon as the New Year is upon us.
Thanks for following me on this journey over the past year. Let’s see where 2019 takes us.
