Too many posts...
You may have noticed that I haven’t posted my weekly blog. This is because I violated the rule. Yes. Me.
I was very happy with how my blogging was going. I had always struggled with blogs, and when I finally hit on the formula that works for me (1 post per week, 100 words min, 300 words max) I was so excited! Finally I was able to post regularly and it felt so easy. And so then I did what most people do when they find something that works..
I altered it.
I thought...well people now seem to actually be reading this stuff (i was getting tweets and facebook links to my articles), I should do MORE!!! Yes, MORE!!!
Instant overload. It took me a week or so to notice that I wasn’t finding it very easy to write blog posts. Then I realised, two posts a week is too much. I was struggling to find things to write. I am really not a fan of fluff on blogs and try to avoid it at all costs.
And so I applied the Drumnosis Principle. : Do Less and Achieve more.
I dropped the second post idea (this is a marathon, not a sprint). And I’m writing again. Simples.
