I decided to start 100 days project. Actually two of them at the same time. Yeah I know – maybe I should consider numerous previous attempts to do even one 100-day-project and how hard it was to “fit into” daily life. Before committing to two at the same time.
But I would rather fail while trying than not try at all (approach I’ve been taking for the past 5-8 years).
So. On 3/1 I’ve started 2 things:
- 100 days of EDC mini drawing. Painting small things, items, objects that represent El Dorado County (CA) for me.
- 100 day of blogging. Writing and publishing here (or maybe social media).
Why?
- drawing idea has been bugging me for more than a year. I want to give this idea my attention, so I can complete it and a) move on – and clear space for some other new exciting idea after completion; b) to observe if I still enjoy drawing and painting, or my “I miss making art” was only theoretical and all in my head.
+ Community #100DaysProject started on February 22, I was too late to notice official start date, so I am setting my own timeframe. - blogging – it’s also been type of idea that was nugging me for years since I’ve stopped blogging in 2012-2013. But also I want to see how my words look like online and not just in my journal.
+ I am scared realizing that my “public” writing has been only official-corporate-soulless-professional work emails. Just dry facts and lists. No emotions. And I am not sure if I am even capable of writing with more expression, or I am just a “manuals” and SOP scribe.
so I want to practice and find out.
Today is day 3. Let’s see what will happen by June 9.
