My First Blog Post

Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken.

— Oscar Wilde.

I believe in being yourself. You should be yourself around everyone no matter what. You shouldn’t be something someone else wants you to be, because then that really wouldn’t get you anywhere. Also don’t be like someone else so they can like you. You should really be yourself at all times. Believe it or not most people will not like if you try to be like them or anyone else. Its always best for everyone to be themselves.

There really isn’t any specific day when I learned to be myself, I just learned it throughout junior high. I learned that everyone is different and no one can tell you who to be. In seventh grade I had some friends that tried to tell me who I could and couldn’t hang out with, which was I couldn’t hang out with anyone else but them. I didn’t like that so decided to leave them and make new friends, but obviously they didn’t like that. I really didn’t care at that point. I wanted to make new friends that wouldn’t tell me what to do or who I can and cannot talk to. I also believe you should be yourself around boys if you’re a girl, and girls if you’re a boy. The person is going to like you for you, not for what you think they want you to be. If you’re mean, funny, nerdy, whatever you are just be yourself. There is always going to be people that like you and people that don’t like you. Don’t let the people that don’t like change you, so they can like you. I’ve figured out who I really am after I met my best friend Kelsey. She’s not scared to be herself sometimes she doesn’t have a choice because of her tourettes. She’s not afraid to be herself, around anyone, even if they make fun of her. She just laughs with them or ignores them. 

I think the Ugly Duckling is kind of a way to tell you that you need to be yourself no matter what. It shows people that you need to be yourself no matter what you look like, or who you’re with. The duck from Ugly Duckling knew he was different but he didn’t really know how or why at first. Until he saw some that looked like him he realized that he didn’t belong with the group of ducks he was with. But to him even though he was different he still thought he should be himself, and look for that to really know who he is. He tried his hardest looking everywhere to figure out who he was, he didn’t try to be like his “brothers” just so he could fit in, or so that they’d like him. He knew he didn’t belong with them so he needed to look for other ducks that liked him for who he was and for what he looked like. It doesn’t matter what you look like or how you act, you still need to be yourself around everyone no matter what.

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
