Finishing what you started
Have you ever started a task, a project, a book, a puzzle or anything else but never finished?
I’m one and this is the day that I am confessing and acknowledging my weakness. It is a good thing to see straight through this mess I’ve gotten myself into. When you feel cloudy, confused, frustrated, lazy or just beat, just know that you not alone on this journey.
There are time we put stuff that we started to the side for another day. That day comes, and we still push it to the side. Days become months, month become years. After a while, you realize that you’ve pushed it too far under the rug, into the closet, waiting for a day when you will arise and wake up and pull everything out that’s unfinished. Things that you’ve started but never finished. Upon arising out of the darkness, then the project, the book, the task can be tackled slowly and maturely, one by one. It’s a hard road but we have to travel that road again to get it done.
This is my journey that I’m taking and tacking head on. I’m vulnerable and need to be for I’ve hidden in the cave for too long and its time for me to come out and confront this head on.
I’m so glad to be apart of this WA community for I am taking one task at a time to complete on this journey called Life.
In my prayer closet, I’m called to be a writer so this is my journey to take it slow and learn what I can and apply it to my online business and write blog posts for the WA community. I won’t say that I’m here just to make money, but I’m here to learn how to be an effective writer, blogger, and how I can reach my niche. As a writer, I can also include affiliate marketing to add to make extra passive income. I am believing for multiple streams of income and this is where WA comes in. I’m very thankful that I found WA. I am so excited to be a part of this community for there is a wealth of seasoned and experienced writers, bloggers, marketing experts from almost every platform that are willing to share their knowledge.
All the other unfinished projects, books, or tasks that I’ve started, I will be working on it this year for I’m tired of the unfinished work piling up on my to do list.
I’m not going to say this as a New Years resolution. This is an accountability issue, a responsibility issue that is going to be confronted and dealt with this year. I know that I will not complete all of it this year but it is a start.
This is one of my tasks I’ve accomplished today. It is checked off my to do list as I go and review my other unfinished tasks to do today.
Peace out y’all until tomorrow!

Thank you for sharing this so honestly. A lot of people feel this way but never say it out loud, and that takes real courage. The part about unfinished things slowly piling up really hit home — it’s something many of us carry quietly.
I really respect how you’re choosing accountability over resolutions and taking this one step at a time. Progress doesn’t have to be fast to be real, and checking off even one task matters more than we often give ourselves credit for.
It’s great to have you in the WA community, and I love that you’re leaning into your calling as a writer and using this space to grow, learn, and apply what you’re discovering. Wishing you clarity, consistency, and grace with yourself as you work through those unfinished projects. One step at a time — you’ve already started.
Thanks so much! ❤️ I really appreciate the follow and support. Excited to connect with you, too! 🙌
Amazing - I have just written out a list of my started projects and I am going to assign slots for this week to the ones I am picking up to get finished soon. (I have 3 websites and 3 main book projects. My third website to promote WA when I started the boot camp is the least developed.)
I won't blog daily - but I intend to make a plan for each week and then blog about what I accomplished. It will help with both planning to get things finished and keep websites moving, as well as with accountability.
Wishing you all the best and well done completing one task.
I know I am one who tends to put something off, then get distracted by so many other things I think I need to do before going back to what I put off. I believe everyone to some degree put things off in some way. The key is getting back to those items you want to finish. I have found making a visual listing of items I need to return to and checking them off or removing the picture from the list helps me feel I am progressing. Go forward with your goal and just keep returning to it when getting side tracked.
Yes I totally agree that a visual board or a vision list is good to start with as it’s a way to see it and run with it to completion!!

Hi Cydney,
Love your post and it's completely accurate.
I have a truckload of unfinished tasks, and ones where I ran out of daylight and have not as yet been able to get back to then.
Also in there are the ones I forgot, as I moved on to other things. There also the ones my wife gets upset over because I move at my priority level, not hers.
But seriously, in today world, it's sometime difficult to finish everything you have started.
For example, where you start a project and realize you don't have the proper tools to complete it;
or you have order a part because you bought the wrong one
or even where you are waiting on someone to do their part first
This is my take on finishing what you start, sometime life happens and you just have to deal with when it bends.
Just saying. ^_^
Totally agree with you about missing tools or resources that should have been with us at time we started
