Hello, Erica here. (said like Zuko)

I've been feeling out multiple blogging platforms to figure out which works best for me. @musclegirlfusion suggested Steemit so here I am! After rewriting my #introduceyourself post like 7 times, I've learned of the simplicity of Steemit. I really like it. It's very straight forward and I don't have too many options to overwhelm myself. They even limit my hashtags! This is exactly like the jam experiment.

I've been trying to find my voice and what I want to put out in the blogosphere with little luck. #analysisparalysis at its best (again, the jam experiment). I'm doing my best to be authentic but still question whether this is the real me or someone driven by the media I consume and societal norms.

I'm in the process of #hardcoreadulting and #findingmyself, which is what I'll be posting about!

I've been avoiding a ton of shit for the past 29 years of my life and I'm finally confronting it. First stop is going through all my stuff and purging like crazy. I've read about many methods of decluttering/minimalism/anti-hoarding but have found that the KonMari method works best for me.

January is all about cleaning house and purging. Iโ€™ve ruthlessly been following the KonMari method for discarding and have donated a bunch of stuff!

Has anyone tried to convert their VHSs to digital? I have and it took me months, multiple failed purchases, $$$, and time and patience ๐Ÿ˜…
insert picture of the boxes of VHSs I had here
^^wish I had that, there was a ton!

I'll be using Steemit accountability and tracking tool for myself to get shit done and enjoy life.

2018 has already been a kick ass year in my book. I've set strict goals for each upcoming month (completely artificial deadlines but I've learned that the pressure kicks my ass into gear) and have gotten so much done just in the first 22 days. There is a ton of room for improvement and I look forward to learning along the way.

When this entire initial overhaul process comes to a close, I'll be posting about food and travels! Or rando things I think are awesome :) #enjoy

Example of travel pics to come!

wow I am from Florida USA I never heard of KonMari but cleaning out stuff you don't use to help others sounds like a great idea Erica Welcome. I see you donโ€™t have a Steemit Profile Picture I made a contest post to make it simple to do just scroll down Here

I love the KonMari method. It's been working wonders for me. You can read about it in her book "the life changing magic of tidying up". I listened to it on Hoopla for free through my library.
Thanks for the profile picture suggestion, I'll look into that tonight
