Happy New Year! It's Time To Stop Spreading Myself Too Thin!

I'm not into New Year's Resolutions, but if there was one I should make it would be to stop spreading myself too thin. If you know me, have observed me and my on-line work, or track my websites, blogs, etc. you would see from the obvious that I am one person who definitely does not publish a lot of "content". Well rather than getting down on myself because that's definitely not good for anyone's progress in life, I would rather look at this from a positive standpoint and use it for correcting the road ahead. So, making a story out of it is the best thing for me and others that may feel stuck at times as I have been.

The problem I see for myself is many fold of course and hopefully by sharing my thoughts on this will help me self-correct and do better for the year ahead beginning this first day of the new 2010 year! In the past because of job commitments has been one of my problems for thin content. I do make excuses don't I? Another excuse I make for myself is blaming it on being attention deficit. How bout just plain laziness? Or having too much fun twittering, facebooking, visiting blogtalkradio friend host shows. I can really laugh out loud at what excuses I have for being content thinly spread!

Another excuse I make for myself is that of the eight full-time years in college and grammar school is that I didnt' pay attention and am very inadequate when it comes to my writing ability and such. This is a big one! I can blame it on those years but what's my excuse for not studying now and learning over what I was suppose to learn then.

Here's another really big one but still can get by with it when I have been learning for two years now from some of the best teachers but I use it still anyway....I have been a political dunce. That was a Snooperism by the way. Mark Harvey aka Snooper has been one of my most favorite of teachers.

Fear! Fear is a very good excuse for not stepping out and taking the chance of being a fool in the name of Patriotism. I need to definitely eliminate this excuse of fear!

Procrastination is a big one! Wow, being the perfectionist that I am procrastination goes hand in hand with perfectionism. Is that a lame excuse or what? How many excuses do I have now for my thinly spread content on the web? Let's see...eleven so far. It seems there is at least one or more. Oh! Here it is! Going back to the first excuse of job commitment now that I am in between jobs and have more time to blog and write better content I now am distracted by wondering what's up ahead? Does that sound like, the house needs to be clean before I can really concentrate and write? Similar excuses.

Well, I am at the end of this evaluation of spreading myself too thin. I hope this may possible help any readers that have been stuck in the same situation. I know there are a few more just lingering in the back of my head and will come back to add then if I'm led. But I am going to seriously try harder this brand new year to do it all better!

I pray you all have a very blessed new year! Be safe, be healthy, be prosperous!
