Coming up with a slogan is hard.
My mind throws out ideas faster than a bebe gun and yet I still stumble over finding a simple phrase that encapsulates what I do. The biggest problem would be that I do so many things. When I was younger people used to ask me what I wasn’t good at. It was an awkward question because no one likes the kid whose good at everything. So rather than play coy or arrogantly exclaim, “Nothing!” I always said: sports.
The thing was, around the time people started asking me this I was playing sports for the first time in my life, going through puberty, getting into shape, and wasn’t half bad. But I was the kid who always got the coaches award rather than the MVP. I tried hard, but I never won the game. So I stuck with that: What aren’t you good at? -> Sports.
But I can’t write a blog called “everything but sports,” although now that I type it out it sounds decent. I want my slogan, my blog, to be about what I do not what I don’t do.
The reason coming up with a slogan is so hard is because I have to decide what I’m actually writing about. I like to think I have a common thread because I write about what interests me, what sparks me that day. The problem is, I’m interested in so many things. Creativity underlies all of it but every idea I come up with involving creativity sounds corny to me. Maybe it’s because there are so many pre-school teachers and self-help guru’s out there who constantly come up with empowering slogans about creating your own life. Maybe it’s just my own cynicism.
Either way, here’s to hoping that I’ll come up with something soon.
