Day 6: Embrace the Struggle

This post won’t be much.

I’m struggling to write for the first time since I began this series. Giving up sounds awfully good right now.

I could wait until tomorrow to come up with something. But then, I’d be setting myself up for failure. If I find an excuse today, finding one tomorrow will be that much easier.

Here’s my strategy for building a new skill (in this case, writing):

1. Do it in public (publish on Facebook)
2. Make it more painful to quit than to keep going (number posts so quitting means starting from day 1)
3. Suck it up when you feel bad for yourself (write even when you have noting to say)

Sorry if I wasted your time with this one. I just didn’t want to quit on you.
