So – what the heck do I talk about in my first post? I have so many ideas going through my head, but I do not know where to start. Okay I guess I did start someplace by writing down those ideas for future blog posts.
Some Random Topics
- Setting goals
- Budgeting or spending plans (what they are, or sugar coating the description)
- Building passive income, and if not, why the heck aren’t you doing that?
- Debt snowballs and their various permutations
- “Why I can’t pull the trigger” series (this of course will be exposing our souls)
- Case studies
- Rules of thumb
- Lessons learned
- Work/life/play balance
- Purpose
The blogging community has had quite an impact on me over the years as I read post content and comments from readers. Many of these blogs I have been following for years. In fact, 5 years ago we nearly launched our blog. Of course, the operative word is “nearly”. It has now finally clicked and I am taking the plunge!
Some Inspiration
I have to give credit where credit is due. Two words – Kraig Mathias.
Ok, how about 3 words – the “Young Cheap Living” blog which then morphed into the Create My Independence blog and website. Kraig recently offered several free workshops that walked his email subscribers through a step-by-step process for setting up your very own website and blog. It was highly informative, motivating, and just finally put me over that cliff. Arghhh! I am going to be a “gosh-darn” blogger!
So I think this may be all I need to write for my first post. Should I say more? I guess there will be plenty more to discuss in the future.
