I'm going to try something a bit novel. Elder Ballard in a commencement address at BYU-Hawaii has encouraged us to use the new communications tools made available to us to further the work of the Lord. As blogs seem to be all the range in the ward -- and because it provides a reporting-type mechanism for me to ensure I keep missionary work top-of-mind -- I've decided to create a "by invite only" blog that can be read by members of the ward council, if desired (it's private so as to not embarrass any one who I'm approaching to share the gospel).
I expect most postings will be short sentences that may say nothing more than "I was thinking I should talk to this person", or "was going to invite this person, but got a bit chicken". By recording such action (or inaction), I hope it will me keep me accountable to me.
