Trying to get your thoughts in rank and file

This blogging business is actually harder than initially expected. I always rather thought of diaries as something you could do if you wanted but that it required no real skill or talent.

I have now found that thoughts and opinions along those lines will only give you a hard smack with the Mallet of Arrogance Slaying. It is tough, very tough actually and I’m not very good at it.

I think the first thing I have to learn is to categorize my thoughts so that I can become better at distinguishing the interesting from the glaring mundane. You have 24 hours every day, most of those hours are spent doing things that are not that interesting from a “writing them down” point of view.

Yesterday evening I sat staring at the ludicrous sub-title: “Thoughts and wisdom” and then it struck me: Write down your thoughts and your comments to your thoughts. It will become tedious sometimes of course but it it propably better to write SOMETHING instead of writing NOTHING.

Here’s to trying anyway, I’ll attempt to write at least three times every week (no need to set up idealistic and un-realistic goals that can only result in failure).
