It's strange. Every time I set something up for myself to do, and start to really focus on doing that one thing, I never really end-up completing it.
It's so strange.
On the contrary, many times I find that if you just don't think too much about something and just do whatever, you end-up getting a lot more done. Feeling a ton more satisfied.
Now, sure you can just blame it on the fact that if you're focusing so hard on something, that you spend more energy on that, than actually doing the task. This is true.. To an extent.
Why do I say that? Well, I think it's bigger than just what we think about. It's gaining on me that it's maybe even a law of life.
For example. Have you ever found it ironic how if you put a ton of effort and time into a blog post, it doesn't do as well as would expect it to. Yet some people then make a single-picture, meme post, and it makes it onto the 'hot' tab.
I know, strange example.. But it happens!
I am trying to take it as a sign. I don't think the message is that we must just start being lazy in the things we do. That'll be a ridiculous message. Rather, to maybe find more balance.
Balance between thinking and doing.
I like the ratio 1:4 for this. That means to spend 4x more time on actually 'doing', rather than just analyzing how things could play out.
I have noticed this with Steemit. These last two days I have been the most focused on trying to increase my engagement. Out of irony, I ended up taking less than half the action as I did when I didn't think about how I would do every-step of things. It's also far more satisfying to just do. Leave the worrying for later.
We are so concerned about what might happen if we do certain things, but the main concern should be what you are not going to achieve, if you don't 'just do'!
More than how much my posts can make, I care far more about getting my content in front of newer faces. So if you would like to show your appreciation, you can share this with others!
I want this blog to be a happy, motivated place where you guys are free to engage and say whatever is on your mind. A place where if you have something on your mind, no matter how dramatic it may be, you can feel free to speak. Resteems are appreciated!
I reward good resteems and comments! I would love to know what's on your mind. Be bold and talk to me in my comments section! I would to know your opinion and what it is you'd like to achieve. I am trying my best to make 2 high quality blog posts per day. So stay tuned!
