Personal Blog

Standard

A personal blog is important. And I don’t mean a blog like this one.

The way I see it, there are three types of blogs: the professional, the public, and the personal.

The professional blog is obviously where all of your works that truly matter go. The one you show potential employers and people you network with.

Then there’s the public blog, like this one. It adds flair from your personality, but can crossover into the two spheres— a nice mix of professional and personal.

And then there’s the completely personal, don’t-tell-you-the-url, strangers-only blog. The blog where one writes everything they’re thinking or feeling, just to get it off of their chest.

A personal blog is very, very important. The release of emotion that writing can bring is most satisfying and brings about an exponential sense of relief.

So, I advise all of you to start your own personal blog. Write not for likes, not for views, not to be Freshly Pressed, but just to make yourself feel better.

Go ahead, your sanity will thank you later.

With love, XOXO.
