Behind the Blog: Low-key blogging goals

I’m starting this sloppy series wherein I ramble about shit related to my blog without much meaning or purpose, just because I don’t what else to say but feel like saying something, ya feel? I doubt it’ll go on for long, but I did enjoy creating the graphics for it.

So I hate goals. I think they’re lame and ableist, and insanely pointless on account of not having control over the future.

But I think having some form of goals for projects is important, so you can create milestones along the way.

When I think about Janepedia, I think about where I want to go with it, and I always get to this point of I know I need to grow it, but I also want to grow it, but I don’t want to grow it aimlessly. Like, I want there to be purpose.

mini & major wins – the popular advice is to offer small wins, but the bloggers I always loved gave away big wins. Some still do on occasion, but it’s nowhere near as often they used to.

plugin – I want to learn WordPress plugin development so I can create a plugin that is, like, organized and not messy, that helps give people more freedom over how they present components of their brand. Like the click-my-bio links.

themes – I want to create and sell basic WordPress themes for people who want something simple, with decent features, without breaking the bank. And if not multiple, then just one that I give away for free. 🤔

speeches/classes/verbal presentations – I am going to teach a virtual class for my cousin’s non-profit soon! I’ve realized, since moving in to my apartment, that I can totally do this if I stop being a baby over public speaking.

Mostly, I want to create magic: the kind you achieve through love, kindness and character development. 🔮
