What I've learned from blogging every day.
I had more ideas about life, growth, perseverance, grit, and leadership than I knew what to do with after I left Carnival. These ideas came from the books I had been reading, my own observations from leading people, and experiences I had in big corporations. I always wanted to share these ideas with my team, and often I didn't. Why?
Because the way I thought wasn't like everybody else.
It was different.
"You're too different. Why don't you be like the rest of us?"
Well, I'm not like the rest of everybody else - and I'm okay with that! I'm me. I have a culture of "different" that I've curated for myself, and it works.
How does this tie into blogging?
Because, through blogging, I create and change the culture.
I curate and clarify my own thinking and behaviors.
I offer insights to readers who are also looking to curate and clarify their own thinking.
I spread a message of artisan doing - perfecting the craft of being productive.
I do this all every day.
What I've learned from blogging is the power of never giving up on an idea. To stick with it. Even if nobody cares. At least I did something worth something with the time I had.
You have time right now. Possibly lots of it. What behaviors and mindsets will you cultivate and curate for yourself?
