Comment and let me know what you think of the orange.
Oof. It’s amazing the momentum you lose by not creating content for a week. Things don’t flow as naturally, but I think it’s going to be a lot like riding a bike.
I had a blast on the mainland but it’s super good to be home too.
I actually was starting to feel a bit burnt out on the content creation before I left. Losing my why. So I’m glad I could take a break.
Man comparison is a killer. And I must be vulnerable and admit, I succumb to it. Why do other peoples posts get hundreds of likes? And mine don’t? (gross that sounds so whiney)
Real talk? It’s cause I’m not a pretty girl. 😉 One day I’ll be an #instagramgirl
Just kidding.
Can I blame my lack of interaction on my posts on the platforms algorithm? Maybe.
I probably post to early too.
Or maybe my posts aren’t getting likes because I’m not producing quality content.
So I’ll keep my head down and keep creating. I’m improving. And so I’m gonna keep after it. When I started all of this I said it was going to be a ten year journey. I’m only 6 months in.
But the biggest thing I’ve got to do in this journey is conserve my emotional energy. So I know I’m suppose to interact with a post for the first hour, respond to comments and such, but I think I’m going to just post and keep moving and create something else so that I don’t fall into the comparison trap.
The biggest encouragement to me has been the few comments I get that what I posted was exactly what someone needed that day. So I’m creating content for me, to grow in content creation, and I’m doing it for the one person that might need to hear that message today.
Keep creating. Don’t let comparison steal your joy, your thunder or your momentum. Keep after it.
