Keeping things simple

To make it easier for me to write my blog, I’m going to start setting myself a limit on words.

I was inspired by Leo Babauta’s blog mnmlist.com which recently moved to having a 400 word limit. I’m going to follow suit and have a 500 word limit. I’ve decided to have an extra 100 words so I can squeeze in an extra bit of waffle, and also it’s a nice round number. I think 400 is a bit weird.

It’s almost certain that I’m going to need to go over that limit on my rambling rants, but so what? It’s not a hard, set in stone limit, more of a guideline. I mean, I’m at 84 words now.

The truth is, I don’t need to write blog and peace, I only need to get my message across.

This post’s word count: 140. Haha, Twitter-esque. =P
