Bedridden. How Now?
So lately I've been struck by a rather serious bout of influenza, rendering me unable to do anything but sleep and sleep and (you guessed it) sleep some more.
As strange (or amazing) as this may sound, my first and foremost concern is my website and how my rankings are inevitably going to drop as a result of decreased content output. Being in bed has made me unable to think, jot down or even write about anything! And that really hurts.
I feel like a parent who has been negligent with his kids, not properly taking care of my site while I'm away. Granted this is probably because of how entirely new I am to this whole thing, and how overly concerned I (probably) am, but it's still kind of worrying!
I've managed to write down the basic structure for another post (and come up with bits and pieces of content) ever since (I haven't fully recovered yet) but thought I'd write this blog down to document my progress here.
I feel like when I (very hopefully) become successful, people will take a look at my WA profile and realize that I wasn't perfect with sticking to schedules or uploading regularly, but with effort and patience anything is possible!
Thanks for reading through this post, and hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Best wishes Manika! For writing just look at your environment. You can write about advances in hospital care for one!
Getting well should be your priority.....your website will always be there. This flu bug is serious....don't neglect your health...all the best.

Thank you Debbie,
I will recuperate as well as I can, and agreed; the website can probably wait :)

Do yourself a favour and don't stress too much about it. WA will still be here, and worrying yourself over things like work can actually prolong the healing process. Stay hydrated and relax (:
Wishing you a speedy recovery,
Claire
Thank you Claire, and thanks for the follow too (I have followed right back)!
Plenty of fluids and sleep shall certainly help! Sincerely appreciate the comment :)

Hello Manika, it seems there are some very bad influenza strains going around this year. I got it just after the New Year began and I did get the flu shot. The only thing you can do is exactly what you are doing getting the rest that your body needs. Wealthy Affiliate will still be here when you recover and you can work harder to move forward.
Thanks Harvey,
Yes it certainly seems that way, huh. I believe I caught it from a family member, just as I went home for the holidays. But yes I agree, if my body wants to sleep then sleep is what I shall do.
Manika
I am sorry to hear. Please get some rest and don't worry about your site.
Get well soon and take care!

I know how you feel. It is painful to not be able to concentrate on something that is important to you.
I haven't had Influenza but have been taken away at times through family issues that have required my attention.
I hope the Influenza leaves you soon and are able to get back tour site.
Don't panic, it is not a race and it will not disappear.
With Grace and Gratitude

Thanks Karen; yes I shall try my best to recuperate and get back to work ASAP! Appreciate the comment :)
