Commitment to the writing practise

If I write something that gets 102 views, I'm glad that a bigger number of people got … Continue reading Commitment to the writing practise →

Hold yourself to it

When you tell yourself that you will do something, it's quite easy to just not commit. Afterall, there is nobody else that knows and nobody to hold you to it. On the other hand if you share your aims or goals with others, you have to be willing to accept being called out of if … Continue reading Hold yourself to it →

Putting more thought into branding

As much as you might want to focus on other stuff, it will always be worth putting some time into branding.

  • A drip and a splash
  • Where to start?
  • Worth looking back on
What I love about writing on thedailygemm is that I can look back and remember the inspiration behind certain posts. Sometimes writing is just a way for me to work through a difficult situation, instead of getting caught up in the moment, I put the focus on finding a solution or looking at things from a different perspective. Haven't been writing on this blog lately. Instead I've been going to a weekly writing class and working on articles for something new. I love it when my most popular posts are also some of my personal favourites. September 2022 August 2022 July 2022 I that I'm able to write things that will be helpful to read months or even years later. Top posts from May last year. When I write from personal experience and it resonates, I always think, this is for us. It's for me being able to express myself and something that you can relate to.
