J is for Journey #AtoZChallenge


MASTER LIST


Our team theme this month is “Aspirations: Blogging hopes, dreams, and goals”.

J is for Journey


I would like to share some quotes about journeys:
  • "Life is a journey, not a destination." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
  • "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." - Lao Tzu
  • "Not all those who wander are lost." - J.R.R. Tolkien
  • "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." - Marcel Proust
Let's see if we can adapt these for blogging:
  • Blogging is a journey, not a destination.
  • The journey of a thousand blogs begins with a single step.
  • Not all those who wander to all of the A to Z blogs are lost.
  • The real voyage of discovering new blogs, consists not in seeking new blog posts, but in having new eyes.
Some are better than others, but you get the idea!

I have known all of these quotes, or at least some version of them, since I was very young. They serve as good reminders as we think about aspirations. Sometimes reaching the goal feels anticlimactic after all you have to go through to get there. So remember, whether your goal is blogging-related or life-related (some might even say those are equivalent!), each step is important. None more so than the first one. We are 10 posts in! It's not too late to catch up if you fell behind!

Blogging Intentions #AtoZchallenge

#AtoZChallenge 2026 letter I
MASTER LIST https://tinyurl.com/mu5vjy48


Our team theme this month is “Aspirations: Blogging hopes, dreams, and goals”.

What are your blogging Intentions?


Intentions are everything
Intentions will set you free

- Intentions by Twenty One Pilots

Heart full of equity, you're an asset
Make sure that you don't need no mentions
Yeah, these are my only intentions
Already passed, you don't need no approval
Good everywhere, don't worry 'bout no refusal
Second to none, you got the upper hand now
Don't need a sponsor, nope, you're the brand now

- Justin Bieber - Intentions



  • An intention is a mental state in which a person commits themselves to a course of action.
  • The underlying goals, purposes, or reasons behind a person's actions, plans, or behaviors.
  • The motivation behind a choice.
  • Long-term desired results.
  • Intention is your internal motive, while impact is how others experience your action.
  • A determination to act, not just a passing thought.
  • Intentions are conscious, positive, and present-tense declarations that guide your mindset and behaviors, distinct from goal outcomes. They focus on how you want to be or feel daily.

The mistakes with intentions come from them being too vague, and forgetting to review and adjust your intentions regularly. 

Your blogging intentions might be to establish yourself as an authority on a subject, to educate or inform others about something important to you, to attempt to solve a problem by blogging about it, to foster a community and connect with others, or to document your experience. If you keep your posts focused on your intentions, your audience will grow.

Is blogging a full-time job for you? Something you do on the side, in addition to your full-time job? Or is it just a hobby,something you do for giggles? My guess is that, regardless of why you do it, you want to do it well. Based on everything I've seen, you are living up to that standard. Keep it up!
