Lets start with the bad news. The disappointment is that Ive never really built up much of a following here on 30GO30. Truthfully, I just havent put in the time and energy it takes, and Ive been blogging professionally more than long enough to know that./p> p>On the flip-side, I started 30GO30 to kick myself in the butt and take accountability to the next level. When our daughter was born and (2 weeks later) I turned 40, I knew it was time to get serious. Most importantly, I felt like I had made and broken a lot of promises to myself, and I wanted to finally face up to those past failures. In a lot of ways, Ive done that, and I feel like 2011 was a huge step forward./p> p>/p> h3>The doing got in the way./h3> p>The irony is that I wanted to write about doing so that Id hear my own message, but as soon as I made that decision, the doing started to happen. Just creating this blog was a commitment to myself, and in retrospect, it was both an act of faith and magic./p> p>Once I was doing, I didnt care so much about writing about it. I just wanted to do more. Writing about what Ive accomplished so far has, many times, felt more like narcissism than progress./p> p>/p> h3>It wasnt supposed to be about me./h3> p>In my first post on 30GO30, I made it clear that a href/blog/i-am-not-a-guru>I didnt want to be a guru/a>. I didnt want to build a community revolving around the shining sun that is me in all my glory. Of course, like any personal blog, the story became about me. Thats ok, in theory, but its not what I was trying to create./p> p>Meanwhile, Ive found that I enjoy participating more in other communities, like a hrefhttp://www.seomoz.org/blog>SEOmoz/a> (my half-day-job), a hrefhttp://impossibleleague.com/>The Impossible League/a> and a hrefhttp://www.fitocracy.com>Fitocracy/a>, than I do trying to build one from scratch here. I know that, as a marketer, Im supposed to own my own content, but the reality is that I dont care. I enjoy meeting people and learning, and that was the point of 30GO30./p> p>/p> h3>I love writers (dont get me wrong)./h3> p>Im not saying that you cant write about something and also do it well – I love blogging about marketing. I work hard every day to raise the bar on the content I create for that industry, and I learn a lot and (hopefully) I teach in the process. People can write about writing, motivation, fitness, and whatever else theyre passionate about. Thats important./p> p>What Im starting to wonder, though, is if writing about doing is right for me. The simple truth is that, when I sit down to write here, it feels like a chore. I want to get back to doing as soon as possible, which sometimes means writing for other sites. When you dont enjoy writing for a site you created, its time to make a change./p> p>I think there also comes a point where writing can be an excuse to avoid doing. Its a lot like announcing what youre going to do to the world before you actually do it. For some people, that strengthens their resolve and makes all the difference. For others, shouting their latest plans at the wind just makes the room a bit breezier. We all have to find that line for ourselves./p> p>/p> h3>So, what comes next?/h3> p>To be perfectly honest, Im not sure. Im not abandoning 30GO30 – Im just going to let it be what it is. For now, thats a personal blog, where Ill write when I want to write. Ill keep updating my progress on some big items, like the a href/blog/the-year-42-project>Year-42 Project/a> and a href/blog/the-50000-push-up-challenge>50,000 Push-up Challenge/a> (both are going well). After that, Ill let the doing be my guide. When I feel like Ive done something worth writing about, youll find me back here./p> /div> /div> div classcontent> div classcontent-head> h2 classbebas-neue>a href/blog/not-too-good-to-be-true-enough>Not Too Good to Be True Enough/a>/h2> div classauthor> by a relauthor href/dr-pete>Dr. Pete/a> /div>span classposted bebas-neue>span classday>05/span> Jan 2012/span>span classcomments>a href/blog/not-too-good-to-be-true-enough#comm1 relnofollow>3 comments/a>/span> /div> div classpost-body> As a marketer, I see a lot of spam, but the other day I had my first spam-based epiphany. I woke up to the following Tweet from "Dolly": p>/p> p aligncenter>img src/images/blog-20120105.gif>/p> p>Call me a skeptic, but I somehow doubt that Dolly actually spends her days taking pouty bathroom-mirror snapshots while coaching people to work from home.

Not to sound self-important, but I suddenly realized that I work from home and make more than twice that. The "dream" was actually worse than my real life./p> p>/p> h3>You can do better./h3> p>In a way, its sad that the new American dream is apparently to not be bossed around while making slightly more than the median household income. Maybe its a sign of the times, but I think you can do better than that. Its not about the money – its about not letting your imagination be limited by people like "Dolly", whos probably stuck making $500/month posing for suggestive Facebook photos./p> /div> /div> /div> div idrightcolumn> div classbox stylepadding-bottom: 4px> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>30 MINUTE CALCULATOR/h3> /div> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Recent Posts/h3> /div> ul> li> a href/blog/empower-your-lifestyle-through-bullet-journal/>Empower Your Lifestyle Through Bullet Journal/a> /li> li> a href/blog/wanted-one-mortal-husband>Wanted: One Mortal Husband/a> /li> li> a href/blog/year-42-project-day-270>Year-42 Project, Day 270/a> /li> li> a href/blog/year-42-project-day-180>Year-42 Project, Day 180/a> /li> li> a href/blog/can-you-write-about-doing>Can You Write About Doing?/a> /li> li> a href/blog/not-too-good-to-be-true-enough>Not Too Good to Be True Enough/a> /li> /ul> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Popular Posts/h3> /div> ul> li> a href/blog/i-am-not-a-guru>I Am Not A Guru/a> /li> li> a href/blog/the-30-day-challenges>The 30-day Challenges/a> /li> li> a href/blog/5-years-as-my-own-boss>5 Years as My Own Boss/a> /li> li> a href/blog/the-no-buy-solution>The No-Buy Solution/a> /li> li> a href/blog/the-24-hour-rule>The 24-Hour Rule/a> /li> /ul> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Follow ME/h3> /div> ul idfollow> li> /li> li> /li> li> /li> li> /li> li stylelist-style: none>/li> /ul> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Blogroll/h3> /div> ul> li> a hrefhttp://johnnybtruant.com/>Johnny B.

Lets start with the bad news. The disappointment is that Ive never really built up much of a following here on 30GO30. Truthfully, I just havent put in the time and energy it takes, and Ive been blogging professionally more than long enough to know that./p> p>On the flip-side, I started 30GO30 to kick myself in the butt and take accountability to the next level. When our daughter was born and (2 weeks later) I turned 40, I knew it was time to get serious. Most importantly, I felt like I had made and broken a lot of promises to myself, and I wanted to finally face up to those past failures. In a lot of ways, Ive done that, and I feel like 2011 was a huge step forward./p> p>/p> h3>The doing got in the way./h3> p>The irony is that I wanted to write about doing so that Id hear my own message, but as soon as I made that decision, the doing started to happen. Just creating this blog was a commitment to myself, and in retrospect, it was both an act of faith and magic./p> p>Once I was doing, I didnt care so much about writing about it. I just wanted to do more. Writing about what Ive accomplished so far has, many times, felt more like narcissism than progress./p> p>/p> h3>It wasnt supposed to be about me./h3> p>In my first post on 30GO30, I made it clear that a href/blog/i-am-not-a-guru>I didnt want to be a guru/a>. I didnt want to build a community revolving around the shining sun that is me in all my glory. Of course, like any personal blog, the story became about me. Thats ok, in theory, but its not what I was trying to create./p> p>Meanwhile, Ive found that I enjoy participating more in other communities, like a hrefhttp://www.seomoz.org/blog>SEOmoz/a> (my half-day-job), a hrefhttp://impossibleleague.com/>The Impossible League/a> and a hrefhttp://www.fitocracy.com>Fitocracy/a>, than I do trying to build one from scratch here. I know that, as a marketer, Im supposed to own my own content, but the reality is that I dont care. I enjoy meeting people and learning, and that was the point of 30GO30./p> p>/p> h3>I love writers (dont get me wrong)./h3> p>Im not saying that you cant write about something and also do it well – I love blogging about marketing. I work hard every day to raise the bar on the content I create for that industry, and I learn a lot and (hopefully) I teach in the process. People can write about writing, motivation, fitness, and whatever else theyre passionate about. Thats important./p> p>What Im starting to wonder, though, is if writing about doing is right for me. The simple truth is that, when I sit down to write here, it feels like a chore. I want to get back to doing as soon as possible, which sometimes means writing for other sites. When you dont enjoy writing for a site you created, its time to make a change./p> p>I think there also comes a point where writing can be an excuse to avoid doing. Its a lot like announcing what youre going to do to the world before you actually do it. For some people, that strengthens their resolve and makes all the difference. For others, shouting their latest plans at the wind just makes the room a bit breezier. We all have to find that line for ourselves./p> p>/p> h3>So, what comes next?/h3> p>To be perfectly honest, Im not sure. Im not abandoning 30GO30 – Im just going to let it be what it is. For now, thats a personal blog, where Ill write when I want to write. Ill keep updating my progress on some big items, like the a href/blog/the-year-42-project>Year-42 Project/a> and a href/blog/the-50000-push-up-challenge>50,000 Push-up Challenge/a> (both are going well). After that, Ill let the doing be my guide. When I feel like Ive done something worth writing about, youll find me back here./p> /div> /div> div classcontent> div classcontent-head> h2 classbebas-neue>a href/blog/not-too-good-to-be-true-enough>Not Too Good to Be True Enough/a>/h2> div classauthor> by a relauthor href/dr-pete>Dr. Pete/a> /div>span classposted bebas-neue>span classday>05/span> Jan 2012/span>span classcomments>a href/blog/not-too-good-to-be-true-enough#comm1 relnofollow>3 comments/a>/span> /div> div classpost-body> As a marketer, I see a lot of spam, but the other day I had my first spam-based epiphany. I woke up to the following Tweet from "Dolly": p>/p> p aligncenter>img src/images/blog-20120105.gif>/p> p>Call me a skeptic, but I somehow doubt that Dolly actually spends her days taking pouty bathroom-mirror snapshots while coaching people to work from home.

Not to sound self-important, but I suddenly realized that I work from home and make more than twice that. The "dream" was actually worse than my real life./p> p>/p> h3>You can do better./h3> p>In a way, its sad that the new American dream is apparently to not be bossed around while making slightly more than the median household income. Maybe its a sign of the times, but I think you can do better than that. Its not about the money – its about not letting your imagination be limited by people like "Dolly", whos probably stuck making $500/month posing for suggestive Facebook photos./p> /div> /div> /div> div idrightcolumn> div classbox stylepadding-bottom: 4px> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>30 MINUTE CALCULATOR/h3> /div> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Recent Posts/h3> /div> ul> li> a href/blog/empower-your-lifestyle-through-bullet-journal/>Empower Your Lifestyle Through Bullet Journal/a> /li> li> a href/blog/wanted-one-mortal-husband>Wanted: One Mortal Husband/a> /li> li> a href/blog/year-42-project-day-270>Year-42 Project, Day 270/a> /li> li> a href/blog/year-42-project-day-180>Year-42 Project, Day 180/a> /li> li> a href/blog/can-you-write-about-doing>Can You Write About Doing?/a> /li> li> a href/blog/not-too-good-to-be-true-enough>Not Too Good to Be True Enough/a> /li> /ul> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Popular Posts/h3> /div> ul> li> a href/blog/i-am-not-a-guru>I Am Not A Guru/a> /li> li> a href/blog/the-30-day-challenges>The 30-day Challenges/a> /li> li> a href/blog/5-years-as-my-own-boss>5 Years as My Own Boss/a> /li> li> a href/blog/the-no-buy-solution>The No-Buy Solution/a> /li> li> a href/blog/the-24-hour-rule>The 24-Hour Rule/a> /li> /ul> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Follow ME/h3> /div> ul idfollow> li> /li> li> /li> li> /li> li> /li> li stylelist-style: none>/li> /ul> /div> div classbox> div classttl> h3 classbebas-neue>Blogroll/h3> /div> ul> li> a hrefhttp://johnnybtruant.com/>Johnny B.
