when the shine wears off
I've been struggling with balancing everything lately.
I've recently started dating again, I've been more socially active, my job has been taking more time and I'm trying to get back to a healthier state than I have been for months. This has meant that anything extra has had to take a back seat.
Unfortunately, this leads to thoughts of wondering whether these things are truly what I want to be doing or whether it was another fad or distraction while I had nothing else to do.
The experts and the gurus surrounding content creation and side-hustles will likely tell me that now is the time to double down, to make the time and find the discipline to keep doing what I'm doing no matter what.
Others will tell me that it's okay to take a break and that if this isn't the right thing for me, then simply move on and find something new.
I do enjoy writing and I do enjoy posting here on the blog so maybe I should cut myself some slack.
I also need to get back to focusing on getting a plan together to start being able to slow down on my career and instead find passive ways to earn, but in the short term it seems the shine has come off what I've been doing.
I suppose it's only normal for things to eventually slow down and now it's a decision of where do I choose to go from here.
