Jack, you’ve certainly got a lot to say, I’m impressed with the consistency of your writing.
How do you find the time/effort/inspiration to write so much? Is there any struggle involved at all?
I’m very interested to know, thank you 🙂

@UnlockTheDoor:disqus Thank you for the kind words. Typically the biggest challenge I have is finding the time to write “properly.”Â
What I mean by that is that it is rare for me to have an extended period of quiet time where I can write without interruption.
Most of the time I am rushed and fight to pump out content more quickly than I would prefer.
I compose my posts on the fly and rarely edit or rewrite them. That is not something that I recommend because editing always leads to opportunities to improve.
There are definitely moments where I struggle but my struggles are almost always with the quality of my work. It irritates me when the words don’t flow.
Inspiration wise it is very easy. One of the reasons that I haven’t focused on one niche is that it makes it easy for me to find content. There are a million different ideas.
That is why this blog is filled with posts about technology, business, parenting, children, sports, politics, medicine, fiction etc.
I don’t limit myself topic wise nor do I limit myself to writing the perfect post. Sometimes you have to just put pen to paper and make it happen.
Or so I believe.
