This week has been something! (short post)

my thoughts after starting my blog and my advice for the girls who are afraid to

Hello pretty people!! This week has been a rollercoaster, first because I had all my last exams of the year (I’m still missing some but anyway) and also because I started my blog! I’m so excited! I’m full of ideas but also full of fear, because starting new things is scary. I am afraid of being bad at writing and my posts not being interesting enough (and a lot more!), but I realized I can not stop doing things because they are not perfect. I will always make mistakes, and if I never start I will never get better. So here I am, trying! Making crappy writings to enjoy myself and not trying to please anybody.

I have some posts pre-written because the decision to make a public blog took me like 4 months, so during that time, I wrote some things. I am super eager to know what this journey holds for me. Just like I wrote on my About page “My goal here is to explore my creativity while discovering myself as a writer and as a person”, I may find it hard to think like this along the way, but I have to remember that expectation kill creativity and the art process. I’ve been reading a lot of posts from other people, and that has encouraged me but also frightened me. I want to write like them but I have a feeling that I am not good enough to ever be like them. But for now, I am experiencing new things and that is what I am enjoying, when the motivation goes away, that's when I'll have to worry about giving too much importance to my expectations.

My advice for people who want to start is to start (I should be a counselor). With fear even if you’re not sure you’re good, start. If you don’t start you will never know how far you could go. I mean do it because you think it’s fun, have fun, not everything you do has to be perfect. Enjoy the process, that’s what you should be focusing on.

Good luck 2 you and 2 me

XOXO
