The Day My Blog Died
I am not sure when it happened. But it did.After nine years of writing daily online, I lost the drive, interest, and desire to blog. It could have something to do with the deliberate shift I made to embrace my BHAG to “Impact a Million Entrepreneurs” and disconnected from blogging.Disconnect to ReconnectMichael reminded me that every so often writers need to “kill their darlings” [precious ideas or characters]. The same is true in business and blogging. I have learned that when it comes to business we just have to let go and for me that required a temporary disconnect. The longer we work a blog, idea, or a business the more we lose our objectivity.Lost ObjectivityIn business losing objectivity is the kiss of death, not mention risky, and expensive - because when I work a business or idea to long - I am simply pissing away my time, effort, and energy. Which all are more valuable than money. The only exception is when I gain experience - which will help me in the future or at least I hope so.I wonder why that is?Could it be that when I “learn something” it makes me feel better and assuages my guilt and frustration? I think so. Pretty damn dysfunctional isn’t it?Now what? For me, I got a blog coach, his name is Michael Martine, from remarkablogger.com and the greatest benefit so far has been getting out of my head and finding the heart of what I want to blog about. My passion is back and I will be announcing more about it real soon.
