Small Win, Big Leap: The Blog Begins

Here I am…. starting a Blog without having any idea what I want to write about. 

For over a year now, I’ve been telling my friends about all the wild things I want to start doing.

  • Start a newsletter. 
  • Build a podcast.
  • Build my own company. 
  • Open a coffee shop. 

And this list goes on and on.....

Every time I start planning, I realize that I have no sense of direction and stop. The variables in play are just too much for me to handle. By nature, I want the plan to cover every detail. Yet, I’m just coming to realize that planning everything is near impossible, at least for a first-timer. 

So today, I thought to myself, why not write about that? Every day, I have to make a dozen first-time decisions. Some turn out right; others are disastrous. But, every decision is a lesson, an obstacle that I fight to crush.

And I know I am not the only one. 

Everyone their own fight, so maybe, mine could help you in yours. 

If you’re in your 20s, starting your life, having to worry about your career, relationships, and future, you’re in for a treat! 

Starting my blog is a fight I won today, and the sense of accomplishment is beyond incredible. 

What about you? What is your fight? And are you setting yourself up for success? 

If not, I hope this inspires you to start.
