Just do it!

START A BLOG

“Show up, show up, show up and after a while, the muse shows up, too.”

—ISABEL ALLENDE, AUTHOR

Writing a blog is free, priceless, and, according to Seth Godin, one the best things you could ever do for yourself. He recommends writing a blog post a day, the perfect project for this week.

Don’t panic, a blog can be a paragraph or two.

A couple guidelines:

  1. Write like you talk. You don’t fret about how to talk, do you?
  2. Simply notice things. Writing a blog for seven days straight will jar you into paying attention to life’s humor and limitless beauty.
  3. Blog for the love of it. Resist all urges to monetize.
  4. Establish what motivates you to get out of bed. What are you passionate about?
