It’s about time I thought about a blog challenge to see me through 2018.
I didn’t really set one last year, but I managed to post a record number of blogs, so maybe that can count and give me a bit of a sense of achievement. Is it cheating yourself to set a challenge retrospectively? To look at what you did - by accident, I might add - and then back-date your own ambitions so you can make out you reached a goal, even thought the goal didn’t exist until after you’ve reached it?
I’m falling into over-thinking now so I’m going to go get a glass of water and then change the subject slightly.
Ok. I’m back.
I didn’t really set myself a challenge last year, but my goal in 2016 was to post a different number of blog entries in each month of the year, and I achieved it splendidly. It was even more impressive than the time I’d done it before (in my opinion) as the numbers were all consecutive, rather than just random ones. So maybe I’ll aim for that again in 2018, but do it IN NUMBER ORDER. So - for example - 13 blogs in Jan, 14 in Feb, 15 in March, etc. Sounds delightful, but am I confident that I’ll be up to writing 24 blog posts in December? With Christmas, our anniversary, and whatever else the Gods might deem to throw our way in the meantime? No, I’m not. So I shall have to go on a-thinking.
