I'm Starting To Lose The Will To Write

It's been three days since the last time I publish an article here. It's not that I'm busy, but it's just that my brain won't cooperate. I tried to think of something but for some reason, I can't come up with anything. And so, I just stopped bothering my brain for a topic to write and just enjoy the flow.

But a girl (me) has to write. If I don't, how am I supposed to reach my 5BCH goal this year? How am I supposed to achieve my goals for my future if I just wait for a miracle to happen? So instead of waiting for my little brain to work, I have to shake it off to make it work.

So today, I've decided to just let my thumbs do the work. No fancy thinking, just let the thumbs move like they are my new brain because if I will just rely on my head, I might have nothing to share. So for this article, let's just write random stuff, a no-brainer article for short.

To be honest, I kind of lose the will to continue writing. Just like how I suddenly lose the will to continue minting NFT on Atomic Hub or checking my Twitter for giveaways and Telegram account, my passion to write is starting to fade. I kind of lose the inspiration I need lately.

I know I shouldn't feel this way because I have goals in life. I have a house to fund. I have a future to build. And if I stop, all my hard work will be wasted for nothing. Well, not really anything coz 3BCH is still not a joke, and it can still make a huge difference in 2025 but.

Will I quit? No! I'm certain that I won't quit but there might be some changes I guess. I won't be publishing articles like how I used to before.

This time, I might just write whenever I have something in mind. This time, I won't force myself to write something during my lazy days, especially during my lazy days. This time, I will only write when I want to and not because I need to. And I'm sure, little by little my passion for writing will eventually flourish again in me.

For now, I'll just enjoy the flow. For now, I will let my brain rest for a while or make a new hobby to gain more inspiration along the way. Coz honestly, it's quite stressful to keep on thinking about what to write, and you barely have the passion to do it.

If you guys have any suggestions, feel free to comment on what's on your mind.


Closing thoughts

As much as I wanted to do the article every day, my brain has its limitation and probably has reached its limits. I don't know if it has something to do with the bot for not being active on my articles or because I stopped updating my BCH goals. I guess I should update the latter though to give me more reason to strive harder. Or maybe I should keep reminding myself that I have a house that needs lots of BCH funds to complete everything before my birthday.

We all experience that we don't have ideas. What I leaned from the other day is if you sit down and just stair at the white blank page ideas won't come. What you can do is take notes. Anything that comes to your mind. Words, phrases anything. Write them down. When you have time look at them and strat from there. Keep writing. You are good.

I actually do that but end up deleting the topics whenever I got frustrated. Hehe. But will try to write anything and beyond. Of course, will have to take a break from time to time to avoid from stress.

It is just as important to rest your brain add it is to use it. If your brain isn't cooperating with your desire to write, or is you feel you are losing your desire, go ahead and focus on something else for a while. Try drawing or singing or dancing or taking a walk. Eventually your creative juices will force you to let them out again. But if you force yourself to write when your heart isn't in it, it will come out in the writing. Your readers will know you are not giving your 100%. Some people say you must write every single day. I don't know if I agree with this or not. I do know there are different types of writing and different types of creativity in general. Burn out is a very real thing. Better to take a few days break. Tell yourself you won't do any writing until next Monday and then on Monday be sure you sir down to write something - anything - it doesn't have to be for publication. See how that works out.

I think the 3-day off was enough for me. After those absences, I finally got the vibe to share/update yesterday and published another one just a few mins ago.

But yes, if my brain or heart won't cooperate, I would just rest them and enjoy my Fam's company. Enjoy some movies, perhaps. Anything fun as long as it's not about spending hours trying to come up with something to write. Anyway, thank you for your advice. 💚

You have a good position now in this platform so i think you should not keep silent here because when ever you are writing something then you are getting reward and this kind of opportunity will never come twice .. Also if you find out less topic to write up then scroll facebook, youtube and collect from there different topic to write.

Cheers!

Ako din po. Nitong mga nakaraang araw parang napagod ang isip ko kakaisip ng topic para isulat. Kaya tatlong araw akong walang naipublish na article. Parang na discouraged din ako kasi hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin ako nadalaw ni bot. Buti na lang at inanyayahan ako ng kaibigan ko na sumali sa patronage ni Macronald. Luckily, napili ako for this week. So, na motivate na naman ako sumulat.😊

To be honest, I actually hardly write these days. I just write something that truly need to be addressed that I will it will in some ways stays on the Internet forever . I feel that recently that because of your determination to keep reaching 5 BCH this year, that seems to sucked out the joy you first started writing and the fun to see seeing your readers reactions here. I could be wrong, but I think the fear or not able to reach financial freedom is sucking our joy and life out of us; and as content creators, that creativity and joy is the bread and butter, and that is what the enemy that likes to whisper in our heads loves to keep us blocked out and distracted.

Maybe just take a breather, take some pictures, and like you said, write what you feel and see how things goes.

$ 0.00

Quite the opposite. I think I'm slacking lately because I already reached 3 and still got 6 more months to go, which means I still have a lot of time to reach my 5BCH goal. And I have a feeling that I can really reach that so I feel like I need to slow down a bit and enjoy the other things.

I've been writing articles for years so I feel like I need to relax my brain from writing just for a few days. But of course, since I have a goal and don't want to miss the fun, I'll continue writing but only when I feel like to.

Ah I see. So probably you are experiencing writing burn out? I have also been writing for almost 5 years now. So probably I am also hitting the ceiling at the moment.

It is great to enjoy the life instead of just writing for the money.

The challenge with most people is they want to publish on daily bases. Instead make your article at intervals this will help relax your brain and reason more. Quitting should be an option for you

The best way to thrive in platforms like this... is to enjoy the journey. Sometimes you'll earn big, sometimes, you get nothing at all. "It's not always Christmas, so to speak." For 8 months, I can say that I've had a great adventure that I will look back to when I'll no longer be able to write anymore. Kudos to all the hard-working writers and participants here who make this site a very cool digital hangout.

Sometimes, nakaka drain talaga ang pagsusulat, but for 8 months now, wala talagang araw na lumilipas na di ako nagsusulat. I write literally everyday. Kung di man full-writing, editing and proofreading naman. Bihira lang talaga ang more than 24 hours sa akin na di ako nagsusulat. It's my job now, so I have to write and write everyday til I bleed.

Hehe, why not rest, po? I mean, find another thing that will excite you and share your experience in that thing by writing an article here. For example, is reviews, suggestions that will help us, beginners, advises. Blogging is not limited only to brainy talks. Blogging is just like having a journal online. It means you can freely write what you want as long as your readers can benefit by reading it. But, even though I don't know you personally, I can still clearly see that your not the type of person that will give up easily.
