Make a blog. It's that simple.

It feels weird finally taking this first step in branding my name. I've anticipated this for months now and surprisingly it feels good. It feels relieving. I've wanted to start a blog ever since I googled my name a few months ago to see what would come up. This was the first homework assignment a leadership professor of mine had given me. The first lesson was about how our name was a brand. When I googled my name I saw something that instantly worried me. A myspace page of someone with the exact same name as myself but a much filthier mouth. All I could think of was how many employers had seen this and thought it was me and how many would see it in the future. The worst part was I had no idea how to fix it. Until a few weeks later. In this same leadership class a woman came and spoke to us about what else? Branding ourselves. She said that if you see something you don't like when you google yourself, make a blog. It's that simple. Make a blog and post as often as possible. So that's my goal. As you can see the first part is done, the second part may be a little harder. But I will focus on the positive. I've finally taken that first step and as long as I take it one step at a time, I think...I know I can do it.

"For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
