Why Blog? Why,Back2goforward.com?
Just Refocusing
These two question seem to go hand in hand for me, as I would have never thought of in any way about, getting involved in blogging, yet hear I am. I would be hard pressed to answer one without answering the other. That being said the idea of blogging comes from me actually using my twitter account, you can follow me @mciscart. When I first signed up for a twitter account, I really didn’t do much with it, but soon I was stuck checking in on who was following me and looking for people to follow after “youtubing” it. I wanted see what were others doing with twitter. I realized that many of the people I was following had their own blogs and that their twitter account was used to compliment their blog. Soon I thought that maybe I could use a blog to further myself as a brand. At the end of the day every one online is a brand, and who better to promote me, than me. With this came some problems that a majority of the blogs I’ve come across tend to have a focus. With this in mind I began brainstorming and tried to figure what would be my focus, my journey to being in school again to become a teacher, parenting, or even my little early mid-life crisis. Soon I realized that honestly I can’t profess to be a expert in any of those fields, heck think being thirty three years old kind of takes me out of the mid-life crisis category. When I thought little would come of my little brainstorming about blogging I realized that I am the blog. The most difficult part was finding a name that wasn’t taken. I went through many different names with practically all taken on godaddy.com, for about an hour and a half, and right before giving up for the night it came to me back2goforward. To me this represents what I’m going through right now, being in school to change careers, and gives me the ability touch on all subjects in my life and others. Some times things don’t work as planned and one may have to do it over, even being a parent you wake up one day, and things you never agreed when leaving under your parents roof suddenly makes sense as you look down upon your own child. At some point in life we all go back-2-go-forward, it is not to be seen as bad, but a self improvement process.
