Free Write

Wow, the last time I posted was the day before I turned 29.  So this is the first article I'm going to publish as a 29 year old.  

I can't figure out how to keep up a blog.  I believe bloggers have fun sharing their thoughts and have the skill to craft an article efficiently.  Many of the article I type for I LOB Resources takes about two hours and it's still not considered well-written.  

There's the idea that my pursuit of perfection prevents me from typing.  I have an imaginary critic looking over my shoulders.  Rather than typing I choose not to - am I scared?  The answer is yes.  I've had this problem since I was a child.  I don't like losing - no one does - but I choose to NOT do something rather than attempt to succeed.  

My therapist encouraged me to just type away.  Don't worry about what others will think.  Be confident in my thoughts and ideas - free write.  This is what I'm attempting yet again on this blog.  Just type, type, type.

Why worry about that imaginary critic?  So much content goes through the Internet.  My typo won't make or break my reputation.  Often times, I feel like I have a great topic to write about, but since I can't get myself to start typing, the ideas I have for the topic fades.... then it's gone and I never had a chance to write it.  

With that said, I'm still addicted to Clash of Clans.  Here's a funny village design from one of my clan mates:
