Good enough

One thing that you run into when you are writing a lot, as I am trying to do with this project of 55 posts in 31 days, is avoiding using the same words and phrases repeatedly. It is easy to rely on the same constructions you have used a thousand times before, yet we do because it is easy.

The truth is, it takes work to write things that do not sound like just about every other thing you have written. Work, I tell you. Time, effort, thought. And that naturally fights against this particular effort because I do not have a lot of time to spend on this, but time is one of the essential ingredients required for success.

So here comes the solution: Good Enough. The posts will simply have to be written until they are Good Enough and then no more. I do not have time to massage them in the manner I prefer and, I suppose, in the manner to which you are accustomed.

I will simply have to write enough and no more and you will have to be happy about it.

Like this post, for example.
