Monetization or Bust
One thing that makes it really difficult for me when it comes to blogging is my penchant for trying to turn every form of creation into a sort of business venture. It’s dumb. It’s like a weird somewhat-involuntary thought exercise that I do. I figure if I’m going to do anything for any amount of time, I might as well figure out how to get paid to do it. The hustle is strong. Anyway, some people might think it’s awesome, but there’s always a catch. In this case, the catch is that I have to stop myself from trying to monetize the things that should simply bring me joy. I enjoy writing, documenting, and creating things to share with others, but as a business owner, I’m constantly trying to put things into neat and marketable packages and it gets in the way. Sometimes it’s just nice to do a thing because you enjoy it. That’s why I’ve kept this tumblr account. It’s an amazingly simple platform that allows me to just get things out without having to overthink them. Anyway… the whole point of this blog is that money ruins the things that you love eventually. ;)
