I was reading some James Altucher stuff and a lot of his blog posts are lists. I thought to myself, "self, I like lists, and I like to write, so why don't I write some lists". And thus, the idea of "Lists for Life" was born. While the title almost sounds self help-ish, the reality is I just liked the way it sounded when I had to type in a name for my blog. Whether it turns out that I actually like writing lists or not, we'll see.
So let's get things started, shall we?
REASONS FOR STARTING THIS BLOG
- I like to write. Not sure I'm good at it, but since I'll probably be the only one reading this, it doesn't really matter. This gets me thinking -- if a blogger blogs but nobody reads it, is it really a blog?
- I like lists. Particularly bullet-ized lists. They help keep things short, concise, and organized.
- I have a creative side to me that doesn't get utilized enough -- perhaps this will give it an outlet.
- Maybe, just maybe, a good idea for a career change, a product, or a service will come out of this.
- Maybe my one reader will turn into two, then four, then many more. More importantly, maybe one of those readers might get something out of it. Yeah, I know, not likely.
- Just because.
