Finding a voice, or an accurate way
to write out and depict your 'inner voice', can be hard, daunting, confusing
and overwhelming. In a sea of witty, comical, kitschy, trendy, smart
and provocative women being the 'little guy' just starting out sometimes
feels like a deer-in-headlights. That might just be my inner pessimist trying
to crush the positivity I do feel for self-growth and development. However,
it does lead me to the bigger questions tied to blogging such as "why do I
want to do this", "what is my goal", and “what do I want to
showcase and develop?"
I've thought and tested out bits and pieces of my writing and varying styles of it
in older blog posts and while I do really love to write creatively and lean on
the side of poetic, overall it isn't something that really grasps my own
attention! I want something I enjoy coming back to on a consistent and regular
basis. I want something I feel very akin to that relates and reflects who I am with
a more “IRL” voice. Perhaps a mix between
the ways I use professionalism and knowledge when speaking at work and how I articulate
myself in my creative writing would be a better way to show how I am outside of
the internet. And Hey! It would at the
very least, I believe, help me to become a better communicator in person. Lord
knows I could use some TLC in that area.
Ultimately
that’s what I've really wanted from blogging, a wonderful community to grow
with and learn from. To become the best version of me and document that self-leadership
development through the things I love.
