In a couple of months, I’ll be blogging for ten years. I had skipped a few months and probably just about an entire year (not consecutively), though.
There are a few reasons for this:
- I had a content overload – either I didn’t know what to talk about, or I had too much to talk about and didn’t know where to start.
- I had too many ideas – I often found myself changing something about the blog, whether it was a page, content schedule, branding, or the like. Thus, overwhelming myself and getting burnt out.
- Work – I’ve been so busy with work, among other things, that I haven’t had much time to work on my projects, such as this website.
- Mental health sucks – my anxiety and depression have been at an all-time high, and I’m trying to figure it out as best as I can.
- Covid sucks – I don’t think I need to explain this one.
With all that said, I had decided to start completely fresh with this website.
