When the going gets though, She chickens out .........


The line goes perfectly for me I guess, I can count those few things I have actually completed.....
Whenever I take up a job to do or even think about it.....
Initially it is exciting but after some time it is not so exciting and with time it becomes rather repelling .....

Today something horrible happened which made me really upset ..... I started my blog for the pure love of writing, sometimes my grammar is not correct ...... my vocabulary is horrible as it is ...... but still i love writing.
One of my friends has been trying to convince me to start freelancing ..... well my first thought about it was .... why not ..... not that I am in urgent need of money but who minds more shopping ;)
So I changed my linkedIn status to freelance writer and filled few forms ...... lucky or not.. I got a call today on sunday !!!!!! the thought of it threw the whole idea to phase 2 .... not so exciting now are we ???
But the worst is still to come the guy asks me to work for him for free for 2 months!!!!!!
Can you believe it ...... I know I love writing but still.... it was not about money, the guy talked as if I am some filthy slave and I am lucky he called me from his busy schedule specially on sunday ....

For a moment I thought That's it ...... no more writing I can't choose writing over my self respect ..... I was so hurt that I was on the edge of deleting my blog, luckily I din't.

I know I don't have many followers, I don't get a hundred votes on indiblogger I hardly manage to collect a few ....... I don't know if anyone out there is even reading .... or am I sending my posts to void ????

Then after a few moments of silence and finishing 2 bornville dark chocolates ( big ones ) I thought F**K him and his offer ...... he came in the middle of my sunday to make a difference ..... I am not going to stop writing just because some jerk called and said all those things to me ...... in fact I am going to write at least 3 post every week.

Once I get in the flow of writing at least three post every week, I will take that one task that I really need to do and that is to loose weight .....

And all this because I have a mother who keeps nagging about how I leave things in middle if I face a single hurdle ........ today I am taking a resolution, I am not going to wait for New Year for it .........  I won't chicken out, when the going gets though atleast not this time :)

So here is my first post for this week :)

  1. Hi Salomi,

    Dont bother yourself with such calls...English grammer can be tricky at times and vocab doesnt matter.
    I have been through a moment of self ridicule and deleted my old blog and I dont words to express my regret...
    If you post daily, interect (read delete your social life and start a virtual social life) you will soon have a list of bloggers who read you too...
    An advice i received...passing it on - you dont need to only write a great blog, you need to make it get read too..
