Lowering the Barrier to Entry

One thing I’m aiming to get better at in 2023 is writing. So far that isn’t going well. One of the reasons it isn’t going well is that I keep talking myself out of it with thoughts like “this isn’t interesting enough” or “you can’t pull this off anyway, so why bother?”. So to try and achieve my goal of writing more I suppose it is time I take note of what Steven Pressfield talks about in The War of Art and stop listening to resistance.

The order of business is to lower the barrier to entry for what I decide to publish on my blog. Starting with this post in particular. For my own reasons I’ve always wanted to write a blog, but I’ve never felt like I had any real purpose for doing it. But these days I have a decent amount of creative output and I would like to talk about it more. Not just the final finished product, but the works in progress and what I’m having a hard time with.

So let’s stop overthinking it and try to publish more. Maybe something useful will come out of it one day.
