I hate blogging.

I’ve never felt I was good at it. I’d writing banal things I didn’t want floating around cyberspace. I’d write a post, then wait months before returning to the website and guilting myself into writing another.

I sat down a month ago and told myself I’d start writing a blog post a day. Here’s what I’ve learned in the process:

1. Showing up is everything.
2. You have to put yourself on the hook.
3. You have to be bad at something before you can be good at it.
4. Learning on the job is the best way to learn.
5. There’s always something in the box.
