…listen to this guy, Mark Suster. He wrote an article about why blogging is important toward growth and marketing and all that, which I really don’t care about at this particular point in time. The important part for me was renewing the excitement and energy within myself about a topic, field, or discipline.
Yeah, it’s hard to write blog posts. They don’t accidentally happen or occur during a normal sequence of a day without concerted effort, and that’s why people (like myself) can’t do it well. It’s not usually that they’re not excited about the ideas they have, but that they aren’t excited about taking time out to write about something that may be either scrutinized or ignored. Everybody’s ignored early on, I guess, so the only way to conquer that is to write quality things on a consistent basis.
In fact, I’m so lame, I post Youtube videos of cool stuff instead of write something about how epic Javascript is, when I know nothing about Javascript (yet) and everything about cool Internet videos. Personal blogs are personal, but they’re really not. I lament not the fact that I can’t find anything interesting to put on here, but that I can’t properly mirror my interests and passion in this space, despite the fact that I desire to do so.
So, interwebz, let’s make a deal. Let’s each try not to be so lame.
