A Blog is Born

As a dweller on the internet, I’ve read blog after blog finding new interesting ideas and I think, “That’d be cool, I’ll try that sometime.” Alas, I seem to never get up and do whatever THAT was. But times are a changin’ and now I have the whole internet to hold me accountable. Wanna try a new diet and not wuss out after a day? Sure just have an accountability buddy, or two, or two-thousand. My hope for this blog is to remind people that more often than not, you are the only thing in the way of trying something new. We love to reason that we can’t do something because of X, Y or Z. In the end, it is simply that our attention is drawn elsewhere and we never even try the exciting new thing we read about.

The concept of this site is simple. Pick something, a diet, a habit, a “productivity hack,” etc. Try it for four weeks, twenty-eight days, and each week on Wednesday night write about my experience. My hope is that some readers will join me and share their experience.

And so, with beginnings comes a fresh start for something new. For my first trial, I will be biking or walking anywhere within 15 miles. No car. I may extend that radius as the weeks go on, but for now, that’s an arbitrary starting point. I hope you will join me.
