Vee's Late Thoughts

I’m a procrastinator at heart, and that’s a big part of why this blog took so long to even soft launch. After paying for this domain on a three year subscription, with no way to get my money back after the seven day trial, I was definitely regretting my decision.

Let’s just say TV makes creating a blog look a lot easier and more fun than it actually is. I felt overwhelmed by the platform, even though I chose one of the more beginner friendly options. But when I finally dedicated a full day to figuring out how WordPress works, it started to make sense. I’m no expert, but it is so much easier to navigate now that I understand the basics.

There was something else holding me back. If my friends and family sometimes struggle to read through my messages and respond, who is to say strangers would want to engage? That thought both fueled and discouraged me. 

I wanted a space to rant without feeling like I was interrupting someone’s peace with my random ramblings, but at the same time, I was scared to put myself out there. Writing for the public is intimidating, and I have so much respect for people who share their work with the world.

It wasn’t until I realized this blog would be more for me than for anyone else that I finally started putting time into it. And yes, it took me more than a month of overthinking to get here. But that is okay. It takes however long you need to find the confidence to write. This is me choosing to show up, even if it’s imperfect.
