Okay, so I’m on my 12th post in my blog challenge. And it’s still pretty hard.

To press the publish button.

I don’t want to be stupid or boring. There always those concerns. And I don’t think I’m alone. There are certainly many people who don’t write because they are afraid to be stupid, boring, wrong etc.

But I’ve decided, I will write every day for 100 days to see how I change, if I become better at expressing myself, quicker to write and get it into a habit. Get rid of the fear.

Just do it. As it is called.

And 12 blog posts is not much, but it’s more than I usually do. It’s a win, I’ve made ​​progress and I’m happy with it.

I’ve also found more reasons why I want to blog, but I’ll keep them to myself for now.

By the way, here’s a tip related to writing. I downloaded a desktop app today that I earlier had bookmarked and picked up when I needed to focus and get some inspiration. It’s called Coffitivity and do one single thing — let you play background noise from a café, choose between morning- lunch or afternoon chatter. Convenient when you don’t want it completely silent but still need to focus and get some inspiration.
