Let's talk about what happened last week, shall we? We are going to refer to last week as "The Unintentional Break". What started off as a normal Monday off, quickly turned into Tuesday off and then it was just over from there.
Along about Wednesday morning, I realized that the universe was trying to tell me something when I said, out loud in the shower, "Screw blogging this week. I just don't have it in me."
I love to blog. I love talking to you guys about fashion, style, and how not to break the bank re-vamping your wardrobe. I love trying new products and writing about them in hopes that it will work for someone else and make their life easier.
However, I haven't had much of a creative writing outlet lately. I've been putting a lot of energy into this blog because it is my baby and I love her and she needed attention. Well, I burnt myself out. I burnt myself out and the universe was trying to tell me to stop for just a bit and re-group. So I did.
During that time, I decided that I was going to have to start putting more work into my other dreams, the largest of those being a published author. There are many emotions that come along with that big dream, and they have been a bit hard to work through this week. The biggest thing is fear, but I am aware of it and I am working to get through it.
So, last week was a decompression week and now I am back here and blogging. I have the wheels turning and I feel like I'm actually getting somewhere this week instead of stuck and behind.
My biggest goal right now is getting two weeks of blog posts written and scheduled so I can take two weeks and focus on writing for a new venture of mine that has been sitting and waiting patiently for me to pay attention to it.
So, here's to new starts and new posts!
Sometimes we need a break. I was working on launching my self-hosted blog this month, so I just did not have the creative energy to post on my old blog at all in May. Glad your back. :)
ReplyDeleteI have been reading a lot of that lately! A lot of bloggers either didn't post or posted very little in May. It must have been the month! Lol! I am glad to have gotten back into the swing of things. I hope I can keep the momentum going.
