Member-only story
A couple of months ago, I vowed to myself for making a change in my life and will not settle for mediocrity. So I’ve read/listen to lots of self-development books and podcasts, in hopes of becoming a better person. I have even started a blog, posting articles and video regularly on Medium and LinkedIn, in hopes of sharing what I’ve learned in my journey with everyone.
I was really motivated back then, writing long articles and filming videos consistently alongside a full-time job. There are millions of people giving up in their first few months if not weeks, but I’m not one of them. I knew I could make it.
But my motivation can only push me this far — I stopped creating content two weeks ago.
Now, it might sound like I’m making excuses, but I do have a few legit reasons for me to take a break, as quite a lot happened to me last month.
- Broke up with my girlfriend.
- Got promoted at work, and that means I had more responsibility for my job.
- Need to do a lot of DIY work for my newly bought property.
I feel overwhelmed, and I believe I’m not in the mood of writing. After some careful consideration, I have decided to stop writing for a bit.
