Growing as a blogger

I’ve been blogging for a little over a year and a half now. And for the most part I feel like I’ve stayed on the safer side of things, when it comes to blogging, writing, and such.

Yes, I have learned a few things a long the way. I do know a little more about about blogging, promoting my blog, ADHD, mental health, and topics that I discuss than I did when I first started. I have become a little more comfortable with it.

However, I feel that I haven’t grown as much as maybe I should. I’ve realized that there is more that I probably should be doing. Like figuring out Pinterest and maybe including posts there or something. Actually learning about ADHD, mental health, motherhood, blogging and any other topic that I may want to discuss or help me with the blogging process, as well as applying what I’ve learned. Maybe even working on some photography skills and using pictures of my own.

My point is that I’ve played it safe. I have probably put it more minimal work when there is more that I could/should be doing.

Over the summer I took some time to focus on me, my mindset, wellness, and my family. I discuss this in an upcoming post, so I won’t discuss it here. However, this time has helped me in a few different ways. I have a more positive mindset and attitude. I was able to renew motivation for things in my life, such as my family and supporting them, my blog, my side hustle, etc.

Over the weekend, I did have a burst of creativity. A few ideas came to mind that I’d like to implement and work on. Not to sure what happened, or why it happened all of a sudden this past weekend, but whatever the reason, I’ll take it, be happy it happened, and roll with some of these ideas and see where they take me.

So, over the coming weeks, I will be doing my best to really apply myself and try to improve as a mom, a wife, a blogger, an entrepreneur. And hopefully, with time, I may be able to grow. I am ready to challenge myself in these areas.
