Recently I began writing 30 minutes a day about whatever is on my mind, and sometimes a day’s writing becomes a blog post.
Often I write about providing music at a wedding or a party. Like this recent “Casablanca Night” gala. Thanks for the photos, Yuqi Wang.
Sometimes I write about leading a jazz band, or working with my colleagues, or marketing my band. Occasionally I write about a personal idea that catches my attention.
One unexpected benefit is how frequently I notice blog ideas from my writing. With my eyes and ears sharpened by my journaling, I see these blog ideas whenever I stumble across events or thoughts that sheds some useful light on my life or my work.
Sometimes I realize such an idea can help my friends and colleagues live or work better. That’s when my blogging cap goes on and I dash together about 300 words to make the point. This post is one example.
All my life I’ve heard people praise keeping a written diary. It focuses what’s on your mind and helps to clarify your thoughts. Journaling like this provides a place to explore related issues and possible consequences of whatever you’re thinking about.
In just a few months, I’m finding that journaling is a habit that grows more effective the more I use it. Every day I practice, my ideas flow more easily and more smoothly. See more of my thoughts about daily journaling.
Bottom line: Daily journaling gives you more and deeper thoughts, and many can become your own blog ideas.
