30 Days of writing: Day 2

Why do I want to write something every day for 30 days?

Primarily because I’m terrible at finishing things. I start projects all the time, but I very rarely finish them up. I want to start ending things. So the first thing I am going to finish is 30 days of writing. I got the idea from Steve Pavlina, a shareware author who also runs a ’self-improvement’ blog. I don’t agree with a lot of his ideas, but the concept of having a trial period of something you want to start really made me think.

It’s just like having a 30 day trial of a new piece of software. I try and write something everyday for 30 days, and at the end of that time if I don’t like it, I stop. If I do like it, it’s much easier to keep on going.

Also, I plan to try and trick my brain into wanting to write. If I can keep myself writing, my brain thinks it should be writing, and so I keep doing it, and can hopefully improve my communication skills, as well as making me better able to put down those ideas that run through my head constantly into words that I can follow up on later.

That about covers the ‘why?’.
