I have been planning to start this blog for a long time now. It is actually happening. Get excited folks. I know I am. The title of my blog might seem a little strange. I know I owe you an explanation. In my life, I am a pretty nervous person. I worry and stress and sometimes freak out. I tend to put a lot of pressure on myself. I want to do well in life and never make mistakes. Pretty delusional thinking, right? The problem with this approach to life is that I don’t know how to do everything right and I will inevitably make mistakes. One of my favorite mantras is “fake it ’til you make it.” I really take that to heart. If you feign confidence, you will feel more confident. If you hold your head up high, you will feel capable of anything. This is the way I want to approach life. I want to be confident in myself even when I don’t truly feel it. I want to step out of my comfort zone. I want to fake it made.
Truth be told, I am not entirely sure what this blog will become. I do know that I will do my best and have fun with it. I want to become a better writer and work on my vulnerability. What better way to work on those things than to start a blog? I hope you enjoy the site. Even if you don’t, I know that I will have a lot of fun creating it. It would be great if you would come along for the journey.
I will give you more details about myself as my site continues to develop. For right now, all you need to know is that I am a pretty happy person who is a perfectionist and loves animals. I don’t actually know the “right” way to “blog”. Is that an excessive amount of quotation marks? I really don’t know. I do know that I will fake it made and hopefully learn more about myself and what I am capable of. Hopefully.
