This happens to the best of us. No matter how much I love my work, sometimes blogging can become an overwhelming chore. If this happened to you, don’t feel alone & read this post.

5 Things To Do When When Blogging Becomes A Chore

Take A Break

Whoa? How? Don’t you want me to keep hustling? Well, I do but in all honesty, I strongly believe that sometimes, taking a break is all that we need.

Don’t get me wrong- I LOVE creating content here on the blog & I LOVE updating my social media followers about bits + bobs in my life.

However, sometimes it can get a bit overwhelming.

Even though blogging is one of the most exciting jobs I could have ever aimed for, documenting your life daily can be exhausting.

Every time I feel like I’ve been thinking way too much about my online presence, I tend to take at least a short break from all of it. It can be very refreshing, trust me.

Work On Behind The Scenes

If you’re running a blog for a while now you’ll probably know that there’s always something you can do to take your blog to the next level. If you don’t feel like blogging right now- perhaps focus on other areas in order to keep going until your motivation comes back.

Here are some tasks you can complete today to work on your blog without actually creating new content:

• improve your blog’s design
• go on Pinterest for inspiration & enjoy it as a regular user
• take an e-course
• read an inspiring book
• research what other bloggers in your field are up to
• listen to these TED talks
• learn to edit your pictures using presets
• follow blogging tips and spend a day learning new skills

Seriously, there’s nothing that puts you right back into that hustling mood than improving yourself or learning something new!

Experience New Things

Stop feeling down and make things happen instead, make changes, work towards becoming the best version of yourself! Go ahead and live your life to the fullest. Risk, fall in love, travel, lose all your money, learn, grow, earn, come back to where you’ve started, but don’t settle for things that do not make you happy. Trust me, blogging about the life that gives you goosebumps is 1000x times easier than trying to find the content that keeps you bored!

Connect With Your Audience

Getting to really connect with people interested in your work will definitely put you right back on track and help you remember why you’ve chose to blog in the first place. Go on your social media and make sure to send a message to everyone that recently commented on your Instagram post. Feel free to thank them for their support and offer your help or expertise. Sometimes giving can cure all of our sores!

Find A Purpose

If you want to feel satisfaction from your blog, you have to know why you’re doing this in the first place. Money, freebies or fame aren’t the right reasons tho.

Think of how your knowledge could improve people’s lives for the better. Be open, share your insights and the rewards will be astonishing. By determining your purpose, you will get all of that passion back straight away. Trust me on this.

Hope this post helped you feel a bit better & don’t forget- you can always, always contact me if you need any support in your blogging journey!
