RE: The Value of Consistency and Perseverance

in #writing7 years ago (edited)

This has been my issue over the years, consistency and discipline. I either get into something, succeed somewhat, then decide I want something else, or I get into and it's harder than I thought, I find no success and give up. It's a constant struggle. I find steemit to be a new opportunity for me at the right time. Not so much to make money but to become more consistent in my writing. I'm leaving on a round the world trip this fall and plan to write extensively about it on here. Somebody said, if you want to become a good writer, you write and keep writing. I'm paraphrasing and I forget who said it, but I always think about that, just keep at it.

That's interesting @travelman... quite a few of the things I have gotten into over the years were projects others had given up because they were "harder than expected." That seems to be what I do best... things that have a slow growth curve but few "violent swings."

Steemit came along at a fortunate time for me... I was looking to resume more "general interest" blogging and there it was; after just six months I have become rather "protective" of this community... and I have managed to get back to blogging almost daily, for the first time in almost 10 years.

Your trip sounds intriguing... so you just got yourself another follower!
