Nothing to Say

Monday, June 3, 2024 by Stephanie Barrett | Uncategorized

Actually, I totally know why I've never started a blog. I have great intentions. Then, I sit down at the computer, and my mind goes blank. I literally have nothing to say. Why is it that when we're in the shower, we could write a dissertation, but when we sit down to put pen to paper........ NOTHING!? 

So, on a whim, late last night, I decided to eliminate that variable. I was going to write. It was going to be whatever came to mind. Some of it may be enjoyable to read, and some of it will definitely get some eye rolls. But, I decided to start........ because starting is the most important part. 

I made another decision. I decided that when I sat at the computer to write my daily blog, I absolutely had to actually write it. I had to write SOMETHING. I had to put my thoughts on paper. I eliminated trying. You know, they say that the drunk driver never gets injured because he doesn't tense up at the time of the accident. I think this could be true of a lot of life. Spend less time thinking, analyzing, tensing..... and more time just doing. 

Be free. 
Flow. 

And, as it turns out, I had something to say after all.
