Project52 - A personal challenge

#413 3rd January 2010 at 8am Link 9 Comments

Project52 is a personal challenge geared toward getting fresh content on your website. The goal is to write at least 1 new article per week for 1 year. Because we all know what it‘s like to procrastinate on our content. A website is not just a fresh design that can be uploaded to the web and forgotten about!

I have decided, along with some 500 other people, to take part in Project52, writing an article a week on my site for 2010. There are a whole host of other great people taking part in this and I can’t wait to read what they have to say on a regular basis. Be sure to sign up and take part.

Best of luck with this Sam, I’m already thinking that it’s going to be quite an uphill struggle but one must “keep calm and carry on”

I signed up for Project52 also. Really looking forward to it.

I signed up as well. I’m looking forward to it, though I have no illusions that it’ll be easy.

+1 for that, Sam. Can’t wait to have my new website ready. I want to join as well :)

I’m signing up right now! I love your posts…. I think it’s good to realize that you don’t have to write a novel for each one. I guess I can queue some up for busy weeks. Good luck!

I was thinking of signing up but I’m sick of setting goals like “I need to blog more” and failing to do so. I reckon I could post a new article once a week for the first few weeks but I know I would end up missing a week due to something or other…

I dunno I might reconsider signing up? I’ve got a few days left in week 1 to submit something to my blog.

I’m doing something similar. — I’m practicing a different skill every month for at least an hour every day. I’m testing the principle that if you do something for 21 days in a row it will become a habit… I’m calling it One Month at a Time.

I have just written an article (before reading about project 52) about what I aim to improve upon this year and writing 1 article a week was on the top of the list. Seems like good minds think alike!

Good luck to everyone whos taking part
