My Original Ideas
When I started off this blog I wanted it to serve many purposes. I wanted it to be a place where I could share what I was 'creating' firstly to keep myself accountable and secondly because I thought in doing so I might inspire other people to want to become more creative in their own lives. If I inspire just one other person to pick up a pencil or a paint brush or start designing something with the computer, than it will all have been worth it. But beyond that I also wanted it to be a place where people could come to learn. I am a huge believer that if you want to learn anything, you should teach it. And if I don't know there are others who don't know. And if I want to inspire others to start on their creativity journey too, shouldn't I also help to give them the tools or skills to do so?
I also have a Facebook Page whose only function at the moment is to announce when I have posted a blog. While somewhat important, for the other 23 hours and 59 minutes it just sits around collecting dust. So that definitely needs some improvements, but what?...
And finally there are some other things going on in my life that I have not shared with you but that I would love to be adding to the blog. One of those things would be my spirituality growth, development and practices. Why haven't I been sharing those with you? Well, it's slightly complicated. When you touch on spirituality you also touch on religion and well... I really don't want to go there. I also currently do not know anyone personally who believes what I believe. And well I guess I'm scared of putting myself out there.... It's not that I think people with rock my world, my faith is strong, it is just that I am trying new things and I do not want to upset people. Or should I say, I didn't want to...
So here are some of the changes I have decided on so far, some ideas are not yet set in stone yet and of course like life, all things are subject to change, but here we go...
Upcoming Changes
- Drawings will now be shared daily on Facebook instead of the 6 every 6 days I have done this month.
- Graphics will also be shared the same way, unless it is a tutorial or I maybe write my own tutorial (but that probably won't happen for a long time)
- On Mondays my blog post will be a kind of highlights/summary of the previous weeks work - kind of like, these are the things I did or these are the things I was really excited about or maybe it will involve some type of update on how things are going.
- On Tuesdays I will begin blogging about my spiritual practices, what am I doing? What am I learning? That kind of thing.
- On Wednesdays I will be posting something related to Health & Fitness. This might include what I am currently up to, but preferably it will be something useful, information, ideas, how to....
- On Thursdays I will post something to do with writing (This is not set in stone because I'm a bit of a chicken). This might be me sharing something that I've written or it might be something I've learnt or am learning about writing.
- On Fridays I will be posting something related to drawing. A knowledge or how to type post. Something that is useful
- On Saturdays I will be posting something related to self care. Sundays are supposed to be my self care ritual day so it's good to get the info out there the day before so others can join in to!
- On Sundays I will be posting something related to family seems often Sunday is family day.
Apart from this I may still be writing other blogs, for example if I do something related to my 100 Things To Do in 2016 or if I complete a Photoshop Tutorial. Other things might just be contributed to webpages instead and not written as a blog, for example, instead of writing a full blog for a new recipe I've cooked, I might just share it on Facebook and then add it to the project page.
Anything Else?
If you would like to recommend any other changes please go ahead and do so in the comments below. I really would appreciate any feedback and will try to take your recommendations under consideration.
Bye for Now!
