30 Blogs in 30 Days - I just needed a challenge!

Thanks to Karen Bernetti's challenge I am going to try to keep my procrastinating butt in gear to make a positive change in my blogging.

I have been working on several posts for a while but just can't seem to get in a groove.  This challenge is perfect because it normally takes about 30 days to create a new habit.

Hey I have enough bad habits!  Avoiding the gym.  3 cups of coffee each morning.  Pretending like I can't hear my wife when she is giving me my honey-do list.  (What are you laughing at?  Don't spill your Starbucks on your laptop.  And for goodness sake, put the powdered donut down before you get anymore on your shirt.)

But I really needed this to get off to a better start.  Come back and check on me to make sure I am still at it September 30th!

Be gentle with the comments, I am at a fragile state.  NOT!!!  Hit me with some good constructive criticism and snide remarks so I continue to grow.  Thanks in advance!

Donnie:  Welcome to the challenge!  I will complete mine on Sept. 6 and I have to tell you -- it's been so much fun!  I've learned so much, met some great people and improved my skills.  I still have a long way to go, but not as far as I did!  Best of luck!

Tish - Way to go.  Congratulations!

Michael - I am writting (finally) information about subdivisions in the area.  Sort of a way to give buyers and sellers some background info in one single source.  Thanks for the encouragement.

Donnie, I'm participating in the challenge, too. Today was day 7 for me...lots more to go! By the way, good for you for writing about subdivisions in your community. Just last week I had a builder who I hadn't met before recognize me by name as "the realtor who writes about neighborhoods in the community." This hyper-local stuff works!!

Good luck!

Shannon-You only 23 days left!  I have been organizing my subdivision data for a while so I could start doing this.  I guess organizing was a good way to keep putting it off.

Kristen-I know what you mean.  I have false strarted now about 3 times.  With 30 days in a row it should really reinforce the habit and time committment!

Dorie-Thank you for the encouragement!
