Got the Blogging Blues?

Lots of people quit blogging, probably 97 out of 100, if not more than that. Those are my observations.
If you're frustrated with blogging, you are not alone. Been there. Done that!
You know what? It's okay to be frustrated. It's okay to want to quit. Even top earner bloggers feel that way sometimes.
Rather than throw out your hard work and quit blogging altogether, there is a much better option.

Start a new business! Get a new part-time job. Get a new full-time job. Start a new side hustle! Do something else to solve your IMMEDIATE financial challenges. AND, keep your blog, but cut back on your hours.
Instead of blogging 10, 20, 40 or 100 hours per week, cut back your hours by 50 to 75% and focus on something else for a while.
Don't shut down your blog or quit completely, but regroup. By cutting back your hours invested each week, you will have time to gain clarity, regroup and decide the best way to move forward.
I don't think should stop blogging completely, but it's okay to cut back. Yes, this means your growth will be even slower. And yes, that is okay.
Why? You are building an asset. Instead of thinking of your blog as a way to generate income today, think of it as an asset in your long-term financial portfolio.
This will eliminate your blogging blues.
Do this for one, two or even three years. Just keep chugging along, but at a MUCH slower pace. As time goes by, you will have more clarity and be able to make a logical decision about what to do with your blog in the future.
I hope that helps. What are your thoughts?
