Since starting this blog, I've changed quite a bit. I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of it has been what this blog has made me do: self reflect. I SUCK at self-reflection. I'm the type of person to think about something for maybe 7 seconds, tops, then I move on to something else. I set goals, but I'm way too kind to myself about not reaching my goals, and then I move on.
Changing my mindset a bit has cured that. I feel more opinionated. I feel more self and externally validated to embark on new adventures without fear of failure. I feel like my ideas are GOOD, and like I can do things or start things that could actually change somebody or help somebody or even just slightly please somebody. Even if that somebody is myself.
And it has made me more fearless.
It has made me more proactive! Actually thinking of an idea and formulating a plan to achieve it. Then, not giving up when things get turned around or go south, but actually trying to salvage what you've started. Entrepreneurs persevere. Hard.
And I don't know what type of Hell fire has broken itself into my life to make me the most busy, stressed, heavily-tasked person on the planet this semester, but I still find time to make this project an important priority in my life. Even though I'm not very punctual, apparently, and incredibly sporadic, my process is unfolding perfectly.
I feel like I have reason to contribute to the world.
