Expose Yourself…

I recently went to an awesome seminar by Scott Ginsberg, The Nametag Guy and one of the many points/suggestions in his seminar is to start a blog. He proclaims “Writing is the basis of all wealth”. In his seminar he explains the power of blogging and I agree which is why I started blogging. (by the way I highly recommend checking out www.nametagtv.com… It’s good stuff!!)

Then, yesterday I met with a gentleman who probably gave me one of the best pieces of insight and advice I have ever received- not just with regards to writing but with regards to living life!

We were talking about writing and I was saying how I am not a writer and that blogging has really changed the way I think about things and I commented on how hard it is! He said writing isn’t hard because it’s hard to write… writing is hard because you are putting yourself out there for everyone to see and judge.

You are exposing yourself….

Think about that for a second…. everything you write reflects who you are, what your values, ideas and opinions are. That is a scary thought! However, I have found that by putting it out there… being yourself… Exposing yourself you are starting the relationship process. What a beautiful thing…
