Hi

I have been thinking about starting a blog for while.

Why? Because I love to talk. I feel like my head is constantly in a conversation mood. This.. that.. this..etc. and it wants to talk more. But my life, career, and life partner does not allow me much opportunity to babble on & on. So I turn to journal, online forum to fulfill my need. There are days when I feel restless unless I made some post online & read feedback of people.

Why don't you just talk to friend? Yes that is ideal situation but I can't talk to all friends about all topics. I have to choose which friend is appropriate for which topic. I guess I never had a best friend who I can share everything with. I have many close friends and I do meet with them often but I have to watch what I share because not everyone can understand or appreciate all topics. So I am back to my journal and online post.

Why not continue with message board and hand written journal? Hand written journal or journal in my ONENOTE feels like I am talking to a wall after a while. There is no feedback & I love the feedback model. Message boards has feedback but it is topic specific and question/answer specific. Sometimes I just want to write and analyze myself. Maybe get someone else's input along the way but it is not a question or dilemma that needs answer to.

Why CD blog? well I am a CD member already. I eventually would love to have a pretty blog with pictures & topics. But for now this a good starting place.

Theme? My life progress. I am hoping by writing here, I will have some type of accountability to continuously improve myself. Maybe others have crossed that path, that habit I am trying to create, or are embarking on this path, I would love to hear from them. What worked, what didn't work? who do I suck so much and how to improve myself

Ultimate goal? Start in this blog. Track my progress and be an awesome person. My mid-term goal is to create blog where I can upload photo & make cool pages. Ultimately, I am hoping I gain enough experience writing online that someday when I am blessed with a child & I choose to stay home for few years, I can find side hustle online (like writing articles/blogs) to generate mini profit. Of course I don't have any baby, nor am I pregnant. So not sure about the timeline but its never too early to start.
