Slipping Behind

The last couple of months have been stumbles for me. In terms of blog posting.

November was bad enough. I only did about half the posts that I should have.

And December was worse! I thought I’d catch up on my posting since most of my commitments were finishing up at the beginning of the month.

But that wasn’t the case.

I found myself “not having the energy” to get those posts written.

As Steven Pressfield might say, I “wasn’t being a professional”.

Not because I wasn’t earning money.

Because I was letting my emotions motivate me.

I was writing only when I felt like it.

I didn’t do the work that I knew I should do.

These were stumbles, though.

And it’s time to “course adjust” and get back on track.

It’s easy to look at the stumbles and give up.

I’m about sixty odd posts behind schedule.

That means it will take me a little longer to reach the goal of 365 posts.

Making progress is more important than being perfect.

Trying to be perfect can kill a goal.

No one’s perfect.

And most tough goals will cause you to stumble.

We all fell countless times when we were trying to walk.

I’ve stumbled a few times on this challenge already.

And I’m getting going again. Like before.

One step at a time. 

One post at a time.

If it was easy, everyone would do it.
