Why it’s OK to take a break

For this week’s blog advice post I wanted to do something a little different. I’m sure regular readers of my blog would have noticed that over the past few weeks I’ve struggled to produce a blog post and new content everyday. And it’s not just a case of not having the time or energy to post everyday. But it’s also because I haven’t felt inspired. I don’t want to be posting on here for the sake of it. I just feel that wouldn’t be fair to you all. So I just haven’t posted as often as I would have like to. And do you know what I’ve realised? That it doesn’t matter.

I used to think that to keep my readership, or to attract new opportunities I had to post everyday without fail. But I don’t think that’s the case. Of course regular updates are important. But it’s also OK to take a break every now and then.

I’m a big believer that when it comes to content, quality is far more important than quality. I wouldn’t feel comfortable or happy with pushing out average or mediocre posts just to keep in the habit of posting everyday. And actually taking a short break has reignited the blogging spark within in me, so now I’m back and raring to go with lots of new blog posts!

What are your thoughts on taking short blogging breaks?

If you enjoy reading my blog posts it would be amazing if you could take a moment to nominate me for the ‘Best in Beauty’ category in the Cosmopolitan awards here. I will love you forever!
