The Plan: Write a weekly blog throughout 2021 publishing on a Friday

The Reality: AARRRGGHGHHH….

I hit the wall at the end of last week. Yes I could trot out many reasons … I’d had a busy week… I had lots of things happening on Friday …

At the end of the day, the real reasons were more mundane but actually, more honest. I had writers block. I wanted to write a blog on “Nice guys” and how not everyone is chasing the money. I had the idea but was struggling to get it down into something that felt as if it was “good” writing.

I had also lost my “Umph” by the end of the week. I was running out of energy and what I should have done was plough through and have delivered regardless … instead I gave up and took the easy way out.

The lesson learned here was that the reason why you didn’t get a blog on Friday was because I was being crap and not motivated enough to follow through and I must get better … but at least I can see where I went wrong which is the first step.

Starting the week with at least a minor win!
