Thinking is easy, blogging is hard

I was asked last week if i blog and after an awkward yes, I had to admit that it’s getting pretty dusty here at World on Shuffle headquarters.

So many ideas. So few blog posts. Nine months of crickets.

I keep an impressive list of potential blog topics. Many of them are quite fleshed out and simply require my hands on the keyboard. However, that seems to be the final stage of their existence. Some of them perish because they just aren’t very good ideas. Most of them die at the hands of Twitter, emails, Temple Run, Instagram, Plants vs Zombies or any of the many other seductive distractions enticing and serenading me from my iPad and iPhone.

Yes, I am addicted to distraction at times. Some of these detours are productive, but the blog gets dusty and lonely. Like talk, thinking is cheap. Thinking is easy, blogging is hard. It requires work and focus. Commitment. Action.

My pledge is to blog twice a week at the very least. Please feel free to remind me when it doesn’t happen. If I don’t respond I am probably tending to my son’s Zombie Farm and calling it productivity.
