My plan to have a second income from my lifestyle blog/brand
is fizzling. I can only blame
myself. When crunch time at my real job
hit, I did not have time to write and my creativity was zapped. My posts have not been amusing in a
while. Case in point: I just had to use
a thesaurus to come up with the word amusing.
At first I chose glib, then pithy - all wrong. I blame it all on my real job.
My other shortcoming is that I don’t have the enthusiasm to
run a Facebook, Instagram and Twitter account that this venture really needs to
support it. Another failing that has
doomed this from the start is that I am not a selfie taker. It just doesn’t occur to me. After the fact - I will say “Oh, I should have taken a
picture.”
Finally, I just don’t care enough about how the world views
me. I left the house this morning with
no lipstick. I contemplated going back
upstairs to put some on, but the thought I walking up the flight of stairs felt
daunting. This is not the voice of a
spokeswoman. I will soldier on when
inspiration hits, but in the meantime I really need to keep a lipstick in my
purse.
