Since the day I started this blog, I have seen such growth and have met so many great bloggers along the way! I am so grateful for all the support and love I have been getting! I would not have gotten to where I am currently if it was not for my lovely readers, so I want to personally thank you!♥
I wanted to take today to just talk to you all and explain what has been going on in my mind. I have been stressing out a lot lately and most of it comes from my full-time job. The front desk girl at my work had her last day about 2 weeks ago, which means that I have been covering all of her work. Doing my job duties and covering someone else’s job has been very exhausting. There are days where I come home and my brain just feels dead where I do not want to do anything. The good news is that we did hire someone for the front desk and she will be starting Wednesday. THANK GOD!
Now, this is not why I wanted to talk to you… I realized, in these past two weeks of doing two jobs, that I need a little self-care and should not overwork myself because it just causes my brain to shut down and causes me to become energy deprived. After this eye opening realization, I asked on twitter if I should try to stick to posting two times a week or if I should not over-stress myself and make the decision to post once a week on my blog. 14% of people said I should stick to twice a week posts, while 86% said that I should not worry myself and just go down to one post a week.
This really made me realized that I really have people who care about me and truly love reading my blog no matter how many times I post a week (obliviously I would never post less than once a week, but you know what I mean). After the results I got from the twitter poll I have decided to switch my blogging schedule to once a week on Wednesdays. I just need to make sure that I am taking care of myself, so I hope that you respect my decision and continue to enjoy my blog as I enjoy reading and responding to all your comments!
Again, I really appreciate all the support and hope you understand my decision. I want to make sure that I make the best content for my readers while making sure that I do not overwork myself since I do work a full time job currently as an accountant, write for my blog, and produce YouTube videos as well. I hope to be able to do my blog and YouTube channel full time in the future so all the support is very much appreciated♥
I also want to let you all know that you should never overwork yourself and make sure that you take care of yourself. I thought that if I produced so much content that people would come flooding in but that is honestly not the case with blogging. You just need to believe in your passion, be yourself, connect with your readers and other bloggers, and just make sure that you are being honest and genuine♥
What do you think of this change? Have you been over working yourself? Do you need to work on your self-care? Talk to me in the comments below! I love to hear from you guys!
Thanks for Listening♥
