On April 25, 2016 I began this daily blog. With the exception of the week I got married and the month of the altMBA, I've blogged everyday for the last year.
A year ago I wanted to blog to:
- Give myself an outlet for consistent reflection and clarification;
- Dance with my fear of sharing my voice and authentic self; and
- Force myself to ship things in an effort to embrace progress and not perfection.
All of this was in service of finding and leaving my legacy to the world and being the force for good I long to embody.
Looking back on the eve of my blogeversary, how has it gone?
It's been more than I dreamed. It has been the single-most helpful thing I've ever done to live in to this wise quote from Ralph Waldo Emmerson.
It brought me to the realization that I am an artist with a vision.
It allowed me to step into the legacy and light that my grandfather left for me and so many others.
It has taught me how to truly be courageous, remove my armour and share my heart freely.
Today the name of my blog is evolving. Shifting from Becoming a Force for Good to Being a Force for Good. I know that I will always be on a path of humble growth and exploration. The name change is in recognition of the things I've been pushing through thanks to Brené Brown.
Changing the name is signifying that I am already a force for good. That I am enough as I exist today. That I've found my path that leads to the version of the future I've already fallen in love with and now I just need to get walking.
