Falling Off the Wagon
I haven’t written on here in a long time; I broke my streak. Often times, when I do that, I fall off the wagon.
The sad part? I broke it on purpose. I make a conscious decision to stop. I felt like it was just becoming too much. I have so many other things going on right now (like running my eCommerce store and growing my freelancing business), that it felt overwhelming.
I’m changing my commitment; 1 article per week. That way, I can prioritize work that makes me money while still enjoying some occasional writing for enjoyment/making myself feel somewhat important.
Instead of writing a public post every day, I’m going to keep a journal every night where I write completely and utterly freely for 10–15 minutes. I’m going to write about what happened in my day and the impacts of these things. Writing what happened alone is boring and pointless, unless you simply want to improve memory. I want to enhance my knowledge of my own strengths and weaknesses, and see where I’m making progress and where I’m falling behind.
