The Battering Ram...

Consistency is something I'm striving to be better at. Aren't we all?

With the genesis of this blog, my hopes are for each post to be daily (if I fail to do this ... well, then I guess I'll be changing the name of my blog to JCON'S Somewhat-Daily, and to be honest ... it just doesn't sound as good).

Consistency pushes us. If our consistency is rooted in proactive ideas, then, ultimately, we are bettering ourselves as individuals. If we form a pattern of proactive consistency, this thinking/action will leak into differing branches of our lives, eventually changing the way we live as people on this earth.

Writing has affected me strongly.

For instance, writing has proven to allow that crazy door to my emotions to open a bit wider . Writing has allowed for me to open myself up in ways I never imaged I could before. While growing up, I was a very private person, not very willing to share my true feelings with friends and family (at least, it took a whole lot of work before I could). When it came to my wife, and forming a closer relationship with her, I struggled because this openness was awkward and unnatural.

There's still lots of work to be done, but ultimately, writing has been my personal battering ram against the door that has for so long hindered my ability to express my true emotions.

Door, may you stay open.

I'm out!
