I've spent a lot of time creating content in the last ten years and now that I'm finally starting to create and publish my own content, I'm asking myself who I am and what should be posted to this site.
Most of the writing and editing I've done has been for one particular business and was pretty extensive. Their existing web presence was very young when I started with them so I had to do a lot of work to gain an understanding of how to present and organize their content according to all of the requirements that were presented. With an existing library of content spanning over 40 years, it was a pretty daunting task.
Part of my journey in building Ten Realities is finding and developing my own voice and brand. As I sit here writing the second post for the site, I'm both incredibly excited, but also still unsure of where this rabbit hole will lead. There's so much I want to present and share- so much I'm excited to do and learn through the process of building TenRealites.com into a major content platform that I'm asking myself about my content strategy.
In this earliest of stages, I'm writing selfishly to keep the commitment of writing and posting at least once a week. I'm stretching my creative muscles, after riding the bench for a while, to create a new routine and have some fun.
I've read so many times from so many different authors that the key to being successful and achieving your goals is simply to START! So when I take a look at my goals and objectives, when I look at the direction and choices that lie ahead, I'm also choosing to be reasonable enough with myself that I understand the most important thing today- this week, maybe this month and even for the rest of my life is to just start.
I'm absolutely certain that by continuing to move forward and stick to my commitment of a posting schedule I'll gain a better understanding of myself, my readers (I know you're out there and I can't wait to connect with you soon!) and ultimately be able to bring a more unified feel to the content that I'll be posting rather than having it appear as a random act of sharing.
Until next time,
Aaron
