I don’t know if any of you see my Instagram posts, blog posts, or anything I create, and think that doing those things is fun all the time. Sure, the final outcome is satisfying to put out there; to see others react to it can feel great. But honestly, sometimes I find myself having to push myself to do creative things so I can stay consistent.

Thankfully, blogging hasn’t seemed too bad in this regard. I have sat here a few times, wondering what I would write about, and felt pressure since it was already 11pm or past that, and I had to get SOMETHING out. But maybe that’s the kind of pressure that pushes me to keep going.

As for social media, I feel like I’m just tired of sitting on the sidelines while I watch others continuously make the content I wish I could make. It can be easy to look at others and their work, and feel like it’s impossible to get to that level. Last year, I put in a good amount of effort into my social media, and then I had to switch focus, sort of leaving me at a stand still. I was creating, I was taking pictures and videos, but it felt like it was less for my brand and more for me. But maybe that’s what I needed at the time!

Today, was one of those days in which I posted and made content that I had to push through to make. Honestly, sometimes I just wish it would make itself, but I know that the effort and hard work I put into the things I make will pay off. And I know I’m capable of seeing the beauty and fun in the work as well!

Anyways, I’m not sure what you all, as my readers, are into. Maybe you have different fun hobbies you like to do, but there might be a step or two that aren’t as fun that you have to push through. My advice? KEEP GOING! Push through it; do what needs to be done so you can keep accomplishing amazing things!
