Here I am writing my first blog post…again. I started a blog several months ago, but became easily discouraged due to the complicated and time consuming learning curve. Keeping up with it and researching was just entirely too overwhelming. But I decided to try it again and not give up!

My intentions for this blog is to share my thoughts, feelings, experiences, and opinions on various life matters, while hopefully helping and inspiring others along the way, in some way or another. I have learned that contemplating and trying to figure things out by researching, thinking, and analyzing, only goes so far. I will say, I have learned a tremendous amount by digging into who I am as a person, and why I am the way I am. But every time I seem to get a lot closer to figuring things out, it always seem to change, which then leads to more discouragement.

One of the most important things I have to remind myself about is to not think so much, but to just do. You can’t grow or learn about who you really are if you just stay within the confinements of yourself and the normalities of how you live. You must change things up a bit, get out of your comfort zone, try new things, and just let go of all doubts and negative self-talk. Do something for yourself because you owe it to yourself to find out what all you are fully capable of, regardless of the outcome. That is what I am doing now with this new blog. Something always holds me back from following through with the things I want the most, and that is a habit that I intend to break, beginning now.
