Blog changes

I decided to change my blog format a little bit. I don't post as often as I need for the blog to be interesting, engaging and actually successful. Too often several weeks pass before I get to write a new post and I think by the time that happens, you lose interest in what I have to say.

My goal is to do 3-4 posts a week. Up to this point it was much less frequent because I turned blogging into a long and annoying experience.

It took me about 3-4 hours to complete one post. I wanted to completely cover the subject I wrote about, but in many cases I started out with an undeveloped idea. Thinking everything through and then writing a large post took a while and I made a lot of mistakes, which had to be corrected later. I guess, by making my blog topics large I lost focus, and doing anything without one is a hard, prolonged, and frustrating process.

I'm going to try and learn from my mistakes to post more often. I plan to limit time I dedicate to each post to about an hour. Idea is to make sure I don't feel like I'm spending too much time on it, and force me to write smaller, but more focused posts. This means I will often have to split larger topics into smaller parts, sometimes taking several posts to cover a single topic.
