Day 100: 100 Days

100 days since beginning this daily challenge. A commitment to write something each day for 1 year. This space. These musings. It has been something of a journey for me. A journey of consistency. Of posting something even if and when i don’t want or feel like it.

What have i learned so far from this process? Doing something that i enjoy (writing) each day, regardless of how i feel in a day or moment, is tough at times but necessary for creation. Its not that i feel particularly creative or inspired with each post, but the practice of focusing my energy on writing something to share each day pushes me to sit with what is in my heart or on my mind in a moment and find words to express what i am feeling or thinking. Daily practice is practice that leads to evolution and growth of different skills. It builds a body of work that can inform larger projects. Writing short passages each day helps to clear my mind so that i can focus on my job. And it reminds me that while my work is important, my life is much more.
