Today I started to research potential topics for my new "professional" blog, which is yet to be named. While researhing I became overwhelmed with topics, ideas... actually I became more overwhelmed with my lack of knowledge about anything relevant. People always tell me "write what your passionate about"... but what is that? What am I passionate about? I have no idea. So, I decided to switch over here to my personal blog and process is out. This is how I think constructively: on "paper," with my fingers. I can't organize my thoughts unless I can see them, SO here we go. What am I passionate about? Let's start with what I love and see where it goes:
First of all, I love my boyfriend. I love spending time with him and doing nothing, or everything. Everything I imagine that is good in life includes him, and everything I love is him.
But besides that...
I love music. I love to sing. I like going to karaoke with my friends and singing duets. At one time I wanted to be a famous singer... I am trying to sing with Sean and his Storie Grubb project. I like to listen to music I can sing to.
I like the idea of travel. I love the sun. I love to learn. I like to learn new languages. I like going to school.
I love to read books, good novels. When I read, I imagine scenarios that I can write about and improve.
I love to watch movies. Real films. I like to discuss films and the thoughts behind the story. I love mythology. I love stories and how common myths connect all people throughout history and time. I love that stories can be transferred through various media to reach the maximum audience.
I love fashion. I like to go shopping and buy new accessories, shirts, and boots. I like to look good. I like to work out because it helps me look good.
I love to drink wine! Wine tasting is my favorite... but maybe because I think wine tasting leads to making loving in a park somewhere... But, I do love to drink wine.
What else... I love my friends, hanging out and talking about life. But, who doesn't?
Anyway.... ADD is kicking in. Also my battery is about to die. Any comments?? I welcome help!!! I work best with assignments.
Love love LOVE!
You are past the point of being handed assignments, so you're gonna have to start making your own.
ReplyDeleteYou named so many things, I have to believe the problem isn't finding WHAT to write about, it's just taking the first step and DOING it. Like wine? Get a new bottle once a week and write about it. Don't worry about being the best wine reviewer in town, just start writing about it. Write about Oregon travel, as if you've been paid to do so. Deadlines!! Write about restaurants we go to (all the time!!). Write about anything. Really, it just starts at breaking the habit on NOT writing, and over-analyzing the "perfectionist" ways to do so. Let go, and just write. You're the only one responsible for, and capable of making this happen. Love you, and I know you'll rock it!
