Starting a blog is the easy part… 1

start…it is the maintaining bit that gets you every time 🙂

Over the past few weeks, I have been working on some posts and scheduled them to be posted, which went swimmingly. However, then you hit the point where the “easiest” ideas have been worked out and put into writing, and then you hit the point where you know you should write something, but you don’t know what you want to write about. Which is not entirely true again, because there are enough ideas going around in my head, but most of these need some time to evolve into a useful blog post.

Also, another thing that is making it hard to “decide” what to write about, is the question “what do I WANT to share?”. For instance: I have made a category for Formula 1, as that is something that I think about and would like to write about, but then I think “who could be interested in my opinion”? In the end, it actually doesn’t really matter, as it is my blog, and I can write about whatever I want, but still, there is this “hurdle” to overcome. The hurdle is nothing more than a psychological barrier, but getting past that is not as easy as it seems. At least, for me.

Anyhow, to keep things going, you do need to get some content out regularly, and in my case, I (try to) do this every Tuesday, with the occasional extra bit in between scheduled posts. I cannot guarantee that this will be the case forever, but the least I can do is my best.

Luckily for me, just by writing this post over the past few days, I have found some new ideas that I can write about and are currently in draft, so hopefully I can work these out properly to be able to fill a few weeks worth of content.

And as you may have realized by now, this post was just created to make sure the weekly cycle will not be broken, and to see if I can go past the Hurdle 😉
