That’ll be 250 for a Cup of Coffee, Hun.

That’ll be 250 for a Cup of Coffee, Hun.

Hello … again. This is Level Nula 2.0. With spring rolling in, we are starting fresh here at Level Nula. New Year’s Resolutions are never too late to begin, at least not in my delusional perspective of life! It is safe to say that after spending countless hours online researching “how to start a blog,” “what should I write about,” “how to create an online presence,” etc., the advice always comes back to the most essential step: just start.

I have been starting and re-starting for years now, but on account of my lackluster style of writing, my insecurity with English grammar, and perhaps my unwillingness to admit the laziness within, I have never consistently stuck with it. I must say there is an intense fear of vulnerability in doing this; exposing your thoughts for all the internet strangers (that’s you!) behind screens to see is a phenomenon I have never really quite grasped. But clearly, I’m into it.

So, it is with great pleasure that I allow you (whoever you are) to hold me accountable for everything I don’t accomplish in my life! JOKES. I only hold you responsible for my morning cup of coffee. I have decided that the best way to discipline myself because we are past the point of motivation, is to create a barter system between words and coffee. Can you sense the desperation? The deal: Every morning, I arrange at least 250 words into carefully curated, profound, mind-blowing thoughts [we just met, but please note the heavy sarcasm] and in return, the universe allows my Keuring serving of coffee to be the best coffee in the world.

Once I publish this, there’s no going back. Because what is on the internet is forever. That’s right, stick around, and you’ll hear the rattlings of my brain each morning. I suppose I should start small and make this a 30-day challenge. Let us (I mean, me) see where this takes us. Cheers to day 1 and my coffee (addiction)! [333 Whoo!]
