30 day challenge of a different flavor

August 29, 2008 · Filed Under Geek Fun 

Last year my buddy Jason Murphy came up with the idea of doing a 30 day challenge. The challenge was to create a blog post every day for an entire month. Easy you say? Sure, if you don’t have a full time job, wife, two kids and a serious case of A.D.H.D. like both he and I have. So, when Jason asked if I was interested in joining up with him to do it again this year, I of course called him an idiot and then agreed anyway.

Starting September 1st my goal is to post one semi-decent post per day for an entire month. I’m thinking the second half of the month is actually going to be easier as I will be attending the CJU conference and then Blog World Expo within the span of a week. Between the two this should provide enough blog fodder to finish of the rest of the month. But, the first 2 weeks may be a bit spotty. We’ll see, I guess.

“What’s the purpose?” you may ask. It’s simple, really. The idea is to get yourself in to the habit of blogging on a regular basis. Blogging is something I love to do, but always find a reason to put off. If you get yourself in to the habit of collecting ideas during the day and posting in the evening (or whatever your preferred time of day may be), blogging daily shouldn’t become a chore. I tend to use it as a time to clear my head and focus on one simple task, which isn’t something I’m able to do most of the day.

So join us! Leave a comment here or over at TheJasonMurphyShow and let us know that you too have decided to kick the dust off the keyboard and write, write, write! You’ll be glad you did… Or, you’ll never remember being so happy to see October 1st roll around.
