-At this point I'm fairly well known amongst friends and family for my new year's
-resolutions, to the point that earlier this month a friend of mine asked me
-"What's it going to be this year?". In the past I've done things like no
-chocoloate, no fast food, no added sugar (see a theme?), and no social media.
-They've all been of the "I won't do this" sort, because it's a lot easier to
-stop doing something than to start doing something new. Doing something new
-inherently means _also_ not doing something else; there's only so many hours in
-the day, afterall.
-
-## This Year
-
-This year I'm going to shake things up, I'm going to do something new. My
-resolution is to have published 52 posts on this blog by Jan 1, 2022, 00:00 UTC.
-Only one post per day can count towards the 52. A post must be "substantial" to
-count towards the 52. A non-substantial post would be something like the 100
-word essay about my weekend that I wrote in first grade, which went something
-like "My weekend was really really really ('really' 96 more times) really really
-boring".
-
-Other than that, it's pretty open-ended.
-
-## Why
-
-My hope is that I'll get more efficient at writing these things. Usually I take
-a lot of time to craft a post, weeks in some cases. I really appreciate those of
-you that have taken the time to read them, but to be frank the time commitment
-just isn't worth it. With practice I can hopefully learn what exactly I have to
-say that others are interested in, and then go back to spending a lot of time
-crafting the things being said.
-
-Another part of this is going to be learning how to market myself properly,
-something I've always been reticent to do. Our world is filled with people
-shouting into the void of the internet, each with their own reasons for wanting
-to be heard. Does it need another? Probably not. But here I am. I guess what I'm
-really going to be doing is learning _why_ I want to do this; I know I want to
-have others read what I write, but is it possible that that desire isn't
-entirely selfish? Is it ok if it is?
-
-Once I'm comfortable with why I'm doing this it will, hopefully, be easier to
-figure out a marketing avenue I feel comfortable with putting a lot of energy
-towards. There must be at least _one_...
-
-So consider this #1, world. Only 51 to go.
