Happy New Year (again)

Not a single day has passed since January 1 where I didn’t think about this blog … this … piece of online real estate … this … expression of me.

The pressure … the expectation … the voice in my head … the conversation goes something like this:

IV (Inner Voice):  “Fred, you need to get some blogs written.  Discipline yourself and get it done”.
Fred:  I know.  But I just don’t feel like it.

IV:  that’s why it’s a discipline.
Fred:  I want to be undisciplined.  I feel lazy and want to be lazy.  I’m just not interested.

IV:  But, you will lose momentum, traffic, and clout if you don’t keep consistent blogging.  Didn’t you read Michael Hyatt’s post the other day?
Fred:  yeah, that post was a real slap in the face.  still, I don’t seem to care.

IV:  C’mon, you can do  it.  You’ve been wanting to do a recap of that awesome Christmas Eve service!
Fred:  nobody gives a rip.

IV:  You’d be surprised.  Plus, you’d promised some of those hilarious small-town stories.
Fred:  maybe tomorrow

IV:  You have got to pull out of this funk.  You are dull.  Dead.  Disinterested.
Fred:  maybe the fast we start next week will snap me out of it.  Until then ….

IV:  Fred, a lot of people will relate to this post.  It’s bound to get some comments and traction.
Fred:  Just for that, I’m not even going to retweet the link.  So … there.
