I would try to predict the perfect cadence for blog posts with a certain category of post running on a particular day./p>p>In every case, this pressure of planning hindered my execution. Instead of thinking through and writing actual blog posts, I would try to create the perfect plan to get the most views. However, without a doubt, unwritten blog post gets the fewest views — zero. /p>p>My stumbling block (or at least one of my many) is trying to plan for all the possibilities at the beginning. On a medium like a personal blog—an incredibly low cost and low risk medium—there’s no need to plan to perfection. In my case, that planning always got in my way. /p>p>That’s why this time I’m creating no plan. /p>p>I’ve created a set of draft posts but no category plan. A list of possible post titles or questions bouncing around my head has replaced my hypothetical plans for themed post days. /p>p>Will it work at all? That obviously remains to be seen. /p>div classsharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled>div classrobots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing>h3 classsd-title>Share this:/h3>div classsd-content>ul>li classshare-twitter>a relnofollow noopener noreferrer data-sharedsharing-twitter-61 classshare-twitter sd-button share-icon hrefhttps://melichrous.com/perils-of-planning-for-perfection/?sharetwitter target_blank titleClick to share on Twitter>span>Twitter/span>/a>/li>li classshare-linkedin>a relnofollow noopener noreferrer data-sharedsharing-linkedin-61 classshare-linkedin sd-button share-icon hrefhttps://melichrous.com/perils-of-planning-for-perfection/?sharelinkedin target_blank titleClick to share on LinkedIn>span>LinkedIn/span>/a>/li>li classshare-print>a relnofollow noopener noreferrer data-shared classshare-print sd-button share-icon hrefhttps://melichrous.com/perils-of-planning-for-perfection/ target_blank titleClick to print>span>Print/span>/a>/li>li classshare-end>/li>/ul>/div>/div>/div> /div>!-- .entry-content --> footer classentry-footer default-max-width> span classposted-on>Published time classentry-date published updated datetime2021-09-14T05:00:00-05:00>September 14, 2021/time>/span>div classpost-taxonomies>span classcat-links>Categorized as a hrefhttps://melichrous.com/category/uncategorized/ relcategory tag>Uncategorized/a> /span>/div> /footer>!-- .entry-footer -->/article>!-- #post-61 -->article idpost-45 classpost-45 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-uncategorized entry> header classentry-header> h2 classentry-title default-max-width>a hrefhttps://melichrous.com/something-new/>Something new/a>/h2> /header>!-- .entry-header --> div classentry-content> p>I’m starting this blog for myself and for my ideas.
