New year, new attitude. We’ll see.
Let’s start with the January blogging challenge.
Follow through. Definitely one of my challenges. Look at my last post of 2023 and you’ll see how my photography looks like a bad bell curve. I’ve done different photography challenges over the years but it rarely ends well… :) I will work on following through on those challenges I give myself.
Overcome complacency. Or maybe it should be don’t settle. No, not settle, more like don’t be lazy. Put in the effort. Do I want to get better with my photography? Yes. Then challenge myself. Do I want to be more creative. Again, yes. Then push myself. Or to be more simple about it… get off my arse…
Change. Not a fan, but generally want it. I guess this one is closely tied to the first two. You really can’t change unless you are will to follow through and not be complacent. I’ll focus on the first two and this one should follow along for the ride.
Not a challenge but more a thought I like to encourage… stop and play.

I also need to as you so succinctly put it, get off my arse! May I ask where you got your prompt from?
WordPress has a daily prompt and typically for the month of January they do a focus on the prompts. It is their Bloganuary event. The best place to see the prompts is to use the Jetpack app on your phone. Once connected to your site you can see notifications, comments, and manage your site. I also see the prompts easier in the app. 10+ years ago when I started my photography site I created a second site “Ramblin’ On” (ramblinonblog.wordpress.com) to try more writing than photography.
Looking forward to when you join us again in the blogs…

Good morning, Mike! Follow through is something I struggle with, too. I really like how you tied all of this together.
Thanks Robin! I spent an afternoon reading posts I created back in 2013 on a different blog. Answers to the daily prompts. I remember how much I enjoyed the writing process and the places it took me. I want to get back to that…
