Day 22

Freddy
He's seen better days.

I have been sitting here for 15 minutes. I am having complete writers block right now. It is hard to describe but it's like the words have disappeared from me. I am forcing myself to write this.

............

After I finally wrote that first paragraph a topic idea came to me. Staying power. Staying power is "the ability to maintain an activity or commitment despite fatigue or difficulty; stamina" (Google, 2015). Wow I just had a horrible college paper-writing flashback. Chills.

I think since the moment I landed my job (which removed one of the main reasons for this blog) I have lost motivation slowly. The reason why is good- I am happy, content, want to put all my energy into my new job, am no longer in limbo, etc. But I am no longer ok with starting something and not finishing it. I am ok with changing it along the way (remember- something is better than nothing) but I am not ok with quitting.

I think that I owe it to myself (and those of you still following) to finish this blog and finish it strong! I am so grateful to have gotten a job that is already bringing me joy, that I am going to put all those happy feelings into finishing this project strong. This blog happened right when it needed to. I was on the edge of hope. It brought me back. Wow...I am kind of a drama queen! ;)

So from now on, no half-a**ing, whining, excuse making or anything of the like! The next eight days are going to be amazing. See you on the other side!
