With Christmas in just a few days and New Years around the corner, thoughts of a 'New' year for quilting and personal growth are percolating in my head. But you know what - I really hate New Years Resolutions. I am not a very focused person, I can't for the life of me stick to any one project before starting a new one. So the thought of making any resolution scares me because I know I will fail!
BUT... There are a few things that I need to work on and there are things I want to accomplish and without forcing myself to try and make these changes I won't be able to grow and possibly achieve some of the goals I would like to succeed at. (deep breath)
The first goal I want to work on is to take my blogging more serious. Blogging for me has been a big learning curve. Although I have had my ups and downs I don't think I have taken it seriously. I would like to try and post at lease once a week on the things I am working on. I also want to do a weekly themed post with a 'learn this' or 'tips and tricks to quilting' or other fabric related information.
I am guessing that organization is the key to developing a consistent blogging schedule, or at least I hope so!
Erica at Confessions of a Homeschooler has designed this clever blog planner and its free!! She designed it with everything in mind for the blogger. There is a monthly calendar on one side and plenty of space on the other side to list ideas, statistics and more. She included pages for giveaways, advertising and brainstorming. This just might be a big help in accomplishing my first goal! Erica also has lots of other printables on her site, go check it out here.
This is just one of the goals I want to complete in 2014. I have many others that I'd like to share, but will focus on this one for now.
What tips can you share about blogging?
The blog planner is so cute it just might work! I'm either glad to have made goals and met them or super bummed and overwhelmed at the process of tallying - when I look back at the mosaic from 2012 I'm exhausted and feel like I did nothing in 2013.
ReplyDeleteKira, I like your Blog, particularly your 'about' details, nice. I love the style of your graphic of your name (in fabrics), just below your photo, it is super. How did you design and do that?
