I Keep On Doing It….

I am the queen of research.

Want to get more organized?  I will find books and articles and blogs on the subject for hours but never actually put anything into practice.

I wanted to learn blog design.  So I again, I found books and articles and classes on it.  I messed some with design, but nothing major.

Now, I am trying to break into freelance writing.  I keep finding articles on how to pitch to magazines, how to write a query letter, how to write better, etc….I think you get the idea.

I can waste a day trying to find out how to make my blog page wider and never accomplish anything.  Yesterday, I sat and pounded out a quick article for something I thought about in the shower.  I sent it out to 249 regional magazines and I have one bite already.

SO I am making a vow today to DO.  It’s ok to do some of that reading and research, but it’s time to WRITE.

  1. 249! Is that an exaggeration? Impressive!

    We need to team up. I am a doer, I hate to do tons of research. I find people like you who are researching the things I need to do and then utilize your research. :)

      Yup, 249 different magazines. :) It was a list of regional magazines and you just sort of send out an article all at once, using BCC. Maybe we do need to team up. I can do the research some and then you can tell me to just come on and do it already.

Speak Your Mind
