I am not a horoscope follower but I do have several friends whose daily predictions show up on my Facebook timeline. While I won't download the app myself, I do read theirs. Funny how many Scorpio friends I have! Usually they are the generic, generalized same old stuff. This one today caught my attention. It made me think about this daily blog challenge and the possibility of going even further with my writing, which is something I have wanted to do since high school. The blog is my first tentative step in that direction. Kind of a baby step in teaching myself some discipline.
I have had a few friends and family members who have given me positive feedback and encouragement. Of course it has been face to face or on Facebook, not in my comments section, but it is good feedback nonetheless. My Blogger stats page shows me that I am getting read, even by a few folks in other countries not just my friends. I do wonder sometimes how they found me. Seriously, I know no one in France or Brazil! I'm curious to know if the same people are coming back or if it's just multiple people getting caught in StumbleUpon.com!
It is the "promote your ideas in a self-assured way" that seems to be my problem area. Sure I do an obligatory post on Google+, Facebook and Twitter with each new post. Granted I probably don't put as much into what I write on those links as I should. I tend to merely mention the fact that I wrote another post and let it hang there. I am not sure how to go about making people want to read it once I'm done. I don't want to be pushy. That lack of feeling that what I write is of interest to others is what held me back on starting for so long. Now that I've started, I suppose I need to get to a place in my head where I simply write without second guessing myself. Time to start thinking like Sally Field:
Until tomorrow, enjoy your day!
