In my most recent newsletter I wrote about Zac’s 100 day challenge (he’s creating and posting 100 days of YouTube shorts), which inspired my friend Laura to do her own 100 days, which of course then inspired me to do the same ….and here we are.

For one hundred days I will be posting here, and on socials (Instagram, Facebook, Threads). Or at least trying to. I am not sure to what goal, but I strongly suspect this is a coping mechanism to deal with the overwhelm at work. I’m the stuck deer in headlights, and this diversion is helping me breathe through it all. I would also like to grow my newsletter audience, but want to do that only organically (ie not via ads or anything like that). I have such a high open/engagement rate with the newsletter, and I would rather maintain that than grow some random subscriber number filled with people who don’t actually want to read it.

To make it easier, I’d very much like a theme for these 100 posts, and hopefully I am inspired by something tomorrow. Some ideas so far:

• 100 posts of memories, where I write about random memories from my childhood/youth.
• 100 posts inspired by a word of the day. This could potentially be Webster Dictionary’s Word of the Day (today’s is “omniscient” ie “knowing everything” which means I could write about Zac who thinks he knows it all)
• 100 posts of “Things I learnt today”, which could be actual facts, or things I learnt about myself etc
• 100 photos, and what feelings they evoke

Or maybe a combo of all of the above. (You can see all of the challenge posts here.)

Thanks for reading, see you tomorrow!
