Get Your Blog Out There

Today the wonderful, fabulous, amazingly awesome Neely is having a ‘Get Your Blog Out There’ linkup today … basically its an incredible way to not only pimp out your own blog a little bit but to get to know other fabulous bloggers …. As soon as I heard about it, I knew I was definitely in!
WELCOME to My Vickilicious Life …

Today I thought I’d tell you a little bit about WHY I BLOG:
The TRUE reason I became a blogger? I blame owe it all to none other then Neely herself! True story! I came across Neely’s blog and I fell in love with it so much I decided I needed to have a blog of my own. So, I started blogging.  Originally I titled my blog “Relish The Moments” but that was very very short lived and I quickly decided to get a little more personal and and thus My Vickilicious Life was born … and the rest, as they say, is history :)

But these days … I blog because it is the most positive thing I have ever done for MYSELF:  Through the Blogger’s Biggest Loser linkup I cohost, and becoming a FitFluential Ambassador I am learning to hold myself accountable for getting the things I want out of life.  Blogging has shown me how to JUST BE YOURSELF  It’s something I’ve struggled with a lot in my life … sometimes its hard to BE yourself if you aren’t exactly sure WHO YOU ARE.  And sometimes I spend so much time focusing on ALL the things I AM NOT that I forget to look at EVERYTHING I AM.  Why have I spent practically my entire life looking at the NEGATIVE instead of looking to the POSITIVE for INSPIRATION? Why did it take so long for me to become PASSIONATE about ANYTHING?   I OWE blogging to finding my passions … Blogging has taught me to stop talking and start DOING. I have found PASSION through Blogging – which it something I went basically my whole life without really having … I just always kinda floated through life without taking POSITIVE ACTIONS for MYSELF. :)

I have also made some amazing friendships through blogging …   one of my favorite parts of my day has become laying in bed at night Tweeting to my favorite ladies!!! :) Speaking of which, I’d love to connect with you there follow me @lifeofvicki :)
