What do you tell yourself when you skip posting on your blog? Here are a few dumb excuses I've heard lately…
- "I don't have time, I'll just use Twitter…it's faster."
- "I'll do it as soon as I [fill in blank, get caught up with email, finish this project, make a phone call, clean out the cat litter box…]
- "I'll blog as soon as I come up with a brilliant idea."
- "Why bother, no one's commented in ages…"
- "I'll blog as soon as I finish up my to-do list and get my desk organized…"
- "I've got to eat first."
- "I should work out first."
The reason these are lame excuses is because you and I both know they're all lies, lies, lies. I can say this because I've got a Ph.D. in making excuses and putting off things I don't like to do.
