Focus or Lack Thereof

Yesterday I wrote about rethinking, rebooting and regearing my priorities.

This afternoon I was reading and a small piece of the puzzle came into focus. I want to do everything, but have no real focus.

The first being this blog. My writing is everywhere isn’t it? I’m wondering if this is good or bad. But the main problem is there’s no true “meat” to my writing. Although I started this blog as a way to share with my extended family and friends about life, my son and what comes to mind, I also want this blog to be more than a diary. I want it to be informative not simply about what’s happening in my life. I want there to be personal information and researched facts. In hopes that someday people will not only find my life stories interesting or entertaining, but informative with sources. For instance, I think my amniocentesis post combines the two together.

Then there’s my photography blog. I started it to separate that life from this blog as a way to share my photos from travel, nature and interior design. I’ve neglected it for some time now not feeling I’ve taken any photos worth sharing. I often think about whether I should just combine the two after all photography is part of my life.

With the beginning of my business, I didn’t want to throw yet another avenue of split focus so I started blogging about it here whenever I feel the want to share about its progress. Then I think about whether I should or shouldn’t. Would it be better to keep both entities separate?

So, there it is. My life online in disarray. My effort to write about it is a hope toward finding more focus in the thick fog I’ve created for myself. Then I wonder if anyone else feels this way. If they do, how do they find the path out of the fog?
