Hello dear reader, and welcome. I am Captain Ordinary, also known as Jeff Kelley, and this here blog is a step towards finishing my book, Who Do You Think You Are, an exploration of consciousness, with a goal of personal growth. In my quest to answer this question, "Is ADHD an affliction to manage, or a feature for advantage?", I've learned that a key to success is forming good habits, and sticking to them. I spent an inordinate amount of time attempting to create my own blog, on my own website, for reasons I'll go into later. I realized that since my goal was to write, and publish those writings, me spending time on coding a blog page was a distraction. I was indulging in a bad habit of avoidance. So I'm returning here to blogspot.com, where I have blogged before. My mission, and I choose to accept it (I'm mixing Star Trek and Mission Impossible there), is to publish here regularly, with pieces that are working towards the completion of my book. My publishing goal: a short piece daily, a long piece weekly. This here post is me, stating my intention, because once I announce it, my fear of embarrassment of not doing what I said I'm going to do, will override my fear of embarrassment from doing it. My official launch date for the daily short piece/weekly long piece publishing schedule is January 1st, 2025. Between now and then, I shall delve into the realm of marketing, an occupation on which I'm most inclined to agree with Bill Hicks. But without readers, why publish? And to have readers, they must know I'm writing. So market I must. This little piggy went to market, sounds so cute, until you realize it's the meat market. And on that happy note, I'm off to market.
Jeff Kelley, AKA Captain Ordinary, is on a life long mission of personal growth, to do what Abraham Maslow called Self Actualize. The Captain's Blog is where he shares things he's learning as he goes, as he completes his self-help book Who Do You Think You Are.
