My #BlogHer14 Epiphany
I’m at BlogHer 2014 in San Jose, California. In my hotel room. Writing this post.
I feel compelled to share Β the epiphanies I’ve hadΒ during a few of the sessions I have attended and even more so during the conversations I’ve been having with new and old blogger friends.Β I have a strategic vision for where I believe my blog should and will be, I need to harness that and run with it!
Consistency. Goals. Connections. Risk-Taking.
Why am I here?
I’m here because I want my blog and blogging/social media career to be more than my lil side gig. Β There, I said it! I continue to attend conferences and connect withΒ brands and other bloggers on a regular basis. I constantly come up with the same conclusion. I need to LIVE MY PASSION and everywhere I turn, itΒ keepsΒ slapping me upside my head. The opportunities are within my reach. My family and Β friends know it, they all agree and are willing to provide incredible support.
What’s holding me back? Why the need for more validation?
Perfectionism. Excuses. Procrastination. ComfortZone/Status Quo
Anything I’ve ever been successful at in this life of mine as been because of my relentless drive ,including launching PegCityLovely just over two years ago. I need to stop doingΒ what I have been doing lately…leaving content in my brain or in multiple draft posts because I don’t have the right picture etc. Β “Perfection is fear”, right Tamara? I have a ridiculous amount of stories and experiencesΒ in this brain of mine that need to be shared. It’s my creative expression, a release and who knows who may be affected or can relate?
I need to get out of my own way and just do the damn thing! Β I appreciate Dani, Tamara and Amy for reinforcing what I already know over the past day and a half.
The time is now.
