Why Am I Writing?
I’m writing because I said I would.
Sometimes I don’t feel like it or I run out of time.
Sometimes I’m tired and I don’t get to it when I planned.
I made a commitment to writing for two reasons:
- I wanted to increase content
- I wanted to exercise my writing voice
But, here’s the thing.
Writing is just writing.
There isn’t a rule about how much writing you need to do to qualify as actual writing.
But, for some reason, there is a slight tinge of guilt.
I don’t know what it is.
Maybe it is that I actually don’t want to stop writing. Or it might be I fear if my writing is too short, it may not be pithy enough.
If it’s short, I might not get the impact of Seth Godin or someone else who writes short blogs.
Should I even care about that?
If I care about that, then I’m writing for approval. Right?
Right?
Are you hearing me?
Does this even make sense?
Hmmm. Maybe this is a clue to stop for now.
So, I’ll listen.
