Everyone says it takes 10,000 hours to be proficient at something. I’ve just passed that mark in my web design career, yet hardly feel like I’m proficient at that. With so many beautiful designs out there, I hardly feel like I’m worthy to stand among the crowd. Does talent play any role in our proficiency? If that’s the case, then maybe I’m just lacking talent. Or drive. Or focus. But the design part? It’s always been difficult for me. Not easy peezy. Not even breezy.
So, I’m deciding to spend more of my time on what has always come easier for me: writing. I’m working on a few different projects (a serial novel, a copywriting side business, perhaps a course) and you’ll probably be reading more of me on here as I’m determined to write about the things that matter most to me. I’ve also started a private collection of letters to my now 2 month old son, which I hope to share with him one day about all my hopes and dreams for him. (Even though I have only one that really counts: For him to grow up healthy and happy.)
Here’s to 10,000 hours. And to another more doing what I really love: writing.
