Five Ways to Fight Writers Block

Many bloggers get burnt out quickly. They feel the pressure to always have new content, funny stories, great advice, perfect DIY’s, and the best recipes on the block. They put too much pressure on themselves to perform and crank out great content all the time. Yes, this sounds a bit much but the hindrance is not their big dreams, it is their unrealistic expectations! They sit down to the computer and just expect ideas and posts to flow out of their body. Sometimes this happens (we all love a good blog session) but when it doesn’t and instead one finds themselves staring in the abyss of computer land, it is easy to give over to discouragement. And with that comes the blogger burn out and the fight against writers block.
I want to encourage you! This does not need to be your story! There are some things that you can fall back on and habits you can form to continue your joy of blogging and avoid the burn out that comes with stressing to create great content – you can fight writer’s block!
WRITE DOWN IDEAS
CREATE A LIST OF “WHEN I NEED THEM” POSTS
DON’T PRESSURE YOURSELF TO POST
PLAN AHEAD
LET YOURSELF STAY INSPIRED
These are all really great tips, best friend! Blogger burnout happens so easily when I stress out about figuring out what to post on days I have nothing planned. And it is totally fine to take a day off! It's good to take small breaks. 🙂
AHHHHHHHHH. I know I have that tardis print, but now I want those tardis cards!!!
Such great tips!! Blogger burnout is SO easy to catch and you really have to be careful and not let blogging become a mandatory task, but a fun task, a hobby.
This is EXACTLY what I needed to read today. Ha! I've noticed that my inspiration goes through an ebb and flow. When it first happened and I started freaking out, but now when I get to feeling drained/discouraged (aka: this week) I start to get excited because I know encouragement and a surge of inspiration is right around the corner.
Every. Single. Time. I've been in the spot where I'm like "WHY AM I DOING THIS" I've noticed that God brings someone by to encourage me to press in. You were that person today. Thanks for posting this 🙂
1. I am super jealous of those TARDIS cards, they are so legit. (Whovian Fist Bump)
2. Thank you for posting this! I run into writers block a lot, and these tips are super helpful! I need to get better about writing down inspiration, but also about keeping my inspiration in one place so that I can actually find it when I sit down to write! Love your blog tips. Definitely so helpful as I start out into the blog world!
Such wonderful advice! And yes, sometimes it's okay to allow yourself to take breaks. Thank you for such excellent reminders!
