I’ve started the 30 days of blogging challenge today. There are the reasons why you should consider doing it too. I tried a few 30 days challenges – coding, meditation, getting up early – but this one is special.
Practice
I’m not a professional writer. Well, I write but in a language understood by machines and other developers. Writing articles and blog posts require a special skillset. Creating a good story, engaging readers and ending with a good punchline are crucial and absolutely essential strengths that could describe a good author. Learning all of these in theory could be hard, so the one and only way to master them is practice.
A month
It’s only 30 days. What was the last thing you have done for yourself in the last 30 days? Have you learnt something new? Mastered a new ability? If you did, you should probably know that 30 days it’s not eternity nor the end of the world.
Time goes really fast and a month can be like a blink of an eye. But it’s enough to try new thing and decide if you like it or not. Very likely the skill you’re practicing has become a new habit after this time and you’ll actually feel the difference when you stop. Study says to form a new habit you need 18 to 66 days. That means, you can learn around 12 new skills in a year. Or at least try and choose what’s the best for you.
You
What’s about you? Have you tried blogging daily or planning to? In the first paragraph I said this challenge is special. It is special because I need you and your support.
Your support really matters to me because instead of spending time in front of the TV, playing on the game console or watching Netflix, I decided to sit down here and spend my time everyday to write these stories. That’s why your feedback is so important to me.
I hope you’ve enjoyed the read. New one is coming tomorrow! 🙂
