This New Years feels like a good time to get into a new mindset. It is cliché but if I can use a meme/egregore to better myself, then maybe I should try it. So to capture that New Years change-magic-energy-spirit sauce I'm going to make some resolutions myself. 2022 was not that fun, as many crypto and web3 enthusiasts might agree with. There was some ups, but a lot of downs. Many, many downs.
Regardless of all that jazz, taking a measured approach to 2023 is mostly my goal. Instead of semi-floating through this existence, I'm attempting to take a more structured approach. As musicians and 'creatives' go (ugh) I'm about as flighty as they come. But I have this weird sort of ambitious kind of flighty that is sorta hyperfocused and autismo-powered.
Writing on HIVE has been both cathartic as well as... not. In the past, articles that I put a lot of effort into barely get recognized whilst others which were merely a thought got heaps of attention. I suppose that's the nature of an attention economy. I did have a few articles I put effort into gain traction, which was nice.
If noone really reads it that much then why not write what I really want to. That isn't to say I haven't in the past, but my past writings were much more focused on "talking about NFTs" and "WEB3 is so cool guyz" that maybe it didn't appeal much to a wide market.
So maybe not too many people want to read that shit. Instead of being a total dork, I'm going to try to be a little more light hearted and funnier. I have a nice dark edgy side to my personality that I can and maybe should tap into. I have lots of ideas, I just have an issue with the whole execution of them. That's basically most people I know.
I do intend to write short entries, as well as longer ones. I will still write my thoughts down about technical ideas, but also about music, art, aesthetics as well. I understand the irony of writing a lengthy post that clearly states, at the top, my plans on taking a measured approach to writing blogs. The thought was funny in my head which is why I did it, well that and I haven't write a long blog this year yet.
So consider this my first.
