Hi again,
Daylight savings time has really thrown me off!
I wasn't prepared and didn't even know that the time was springing forward on Sunday morning. Having a toddler that's used to staying in bed longer makes it a little bit harder. She is not adjusting well to the time change, and of course because she doesn't understand why we are up and starting our day a whole hour early. She is cranky and confused, so that makes the start of the day a real struggle. It gets better throughout the day and hopefully she will adjust soon and won't notice a difference.
I had a different post planned for today but, I didn't get everything finished for it the way I wanted to. I also didn't just want to post something that I wasn't completely happy with. Since I am new to blogging. I'm having to do a ton of research on ways to make sure my blog is great but also makes me happy. Having to make time for it is a lot of work but I'm always up for a challenge. It's especially difficult with my little one running around and getting into everything . That makes it hard to stay focused and causes me put off my projects until I get some available free time. Which is usually during her nap time. Which is also when I have to get things done around the our place so I'm still figuring out how to juggle wife life, mom life and blog life.
Today what I really want to talk about is consistency. It's one of the most challenging things for me to do in my life, and always has been. I seem to start a project and when I get bored with it, I'm unmotivated by it, or it just doesn't inspire me anymore, I drop it all together until something else peaks my interest. I have put off blogging for so long that the way it works has changed so much since I initially decided to do it.
Now the pressure is on and its intimidating and at times discouraging when I see what the world of blogging consist of now. The work and quality of my work really has to show. What I really want is this year to be different and for me to do something that I have wanted to do for a while. I see now that I am going to need a lot of consistency, faith and motivation to get things done.
I'm going to push my self harder than I ever have before! With all that being said, do what motivates you the most and do your best to stay consistent and eventually all of your hard work will pay off! At least that's what I keep telling myself!? Lol. If you have any tips on how you stay consistent, motivated or inspired please share! Here's a quote from @LloydBarker on Instagram that gave me motivation to get this blog post up today. Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time,
Courtney B 💋
