So here we go.
Way back in the day I used to love blogging, writing long form bits of prose about the things that were going on in my life. It was a glorious period, where overseas travel and young babies in the house provided ample fodder for things to write about. All writers need prompts, and then there was prompt's a plenty.
This period ran from 2003 to 2006, and it's no coincidence that I stopped once social media really started to take off. As it became easier and easier to share life in little tid bits, the concentration and effort required to maintain a blog seemed to be less and less appealing. I'd suggest my blog wasn't the only one to incur the wrath of Facebook.
I have to say though - the blogger interface has improved somewhat over the last 10 years, and it probably hasn't been updated in 5. I bet wordpress is real fancy.
But here we are, back again - because I've got a stack of stuff I want to write about.
Daily Habits.
I can feel your eyes rolling from here. Here's some middle aged bloke. Of course he's got a self improvement blog. Have you seen that guy? Seriously.
I get it, but I have been reading a lot, and I reckon if I can hack the process of creating good habits and deleting the bad ones, I can take over the world.
This particular post isn't going to be long, because it just needs to exist. Just write every day and after 66 days, writing will be a concrete habit.
