Overcoming the Lazy Blogger Syndrome.
This is my first post for 2008. I am thoroughly disappointed in myself because 2007 has come and gone and I have not managed to remotely achieve even my smallest goals. Ok the whining stops here…
Why am I unable to achieve this one goal of becoming a star blogger? A voice in my head immediately answered…. “Dude, you are Lazy! “.
Immediately I set my mind on how to overcome my laziness /procrastination. My main reason for being a world-class procrastinator is probably due to lack of punishment. I will not act on anything unless there is a threat of pain or other unpleasant consequences. If I were an animal I would be a stubborn donkey that won’t pull the cart unless whipped raw.
After some serious soul searching, the conclusion was no one could hold a whip to my ass to force me to do some serious work. I am a grown man and as such I should be able to come up with ways of self -disciplining and motivating myself.
So far I have come up with one way of overcoming procrastination as far as blogging is concerned. Liewcf.com is one of my favorite bloggers. My main goal is to write more articles than him this year. (starting from today). I have subscribed to his feed and as soon as LiewCF publishes an article on his blog I will have to publish an even better one on this blog.
It might seem like a silly way of motivating myself but this is the beginning of a great 2008…..although its already February.
