My 100 Word 100 Day Challenge
Just For Me
I have been wanting to write a minimum of 100 words for 100 days for a while now. Well, more than that, I write at least that every day. I want to write 100 words for 100 days and then share those words. There is a brilliant publication here on Medium called 100 Naked Words that does this. I emailed and applied and never heard back. I emailed a second time and still never heard back. There was the sadness and grief that comes with rejection. Then I said to myself, “I can still do this, even if it is just for me.”
What would it be like to just do something that I want to do? What would it be like to take this challenge myself and be accountable to me? What would it be like not feel obligated to please someone else holding the space for something that I really want to do anyway? What would it be like to show up to me first?
Well I am about to find out!
Today, October 5, 2017, I am starting the 100 words for 100 days challenge, just for me. I will admit that I am scared. I am afraid I will fail. I am afraid that I won’t have anything to say, or anything to say that anyone wants to read. I hear the same old familiar fears that creep in when I am about to share anything I have written. I am not going to let fear stop me. Not today.
