Where Do I Go From Here?

Hello friends! Welcome back, and thank you for joining me again this week.

Man, I’m really starting to get bad at this whole blogging thing. I was doing so well for a few months about posting regularly, but the last couple of months, I’ve been finding it harder to find the motivation to come back week after week. I think the main reason for my feeling that way is due to the free-form nature of the blog that I’ve established.

When I started this blog, my intention was to keep it theme-less. In my head, that was going to help me by allowing me to write about anything and everything that caught my fancy in a given week, and wouldn’t pigeon-hole me in to any one niche. In reality though, I feel not selecting some sort of a theme for the blog has in a way hindered me, as it is getting more and more difficult to pick anything to write about any given week. I know that seems very counter-intuitive but apparently, it’s an actual thing, and it’s called “overchoice” or “choice overload”. I’m not going to get in to it here, but if you’re interested in reading a bit about it or have found yourself feeling similarly overwhelmed by any overchoice in your life and want to read a bit more about choice overload, you can check it out here.

It has gotten to the point where, as I see it, I’ve got two options: I can either quit blogging, and chalk it up to a fun – but ultimately failed – experiment, or, I can find a way to reinvigorate the blog, and get back to more regular posting. Ultimately, I do still feel as though writing here is beneficial for me, even if I’m not doing it quite as frequently as I used to, so at this point, I do not plan on quitting the blog. That being said, going forward, I am going to need help from you, my readers. I know not many people come to my page or read my posts, but for those of you that do, I sincerely thank you, and I want to write about things that you’d like to read about. So I’m going to ask that you leave me some ideas either for individual blog posts that you’d be interested in hearing my thoughts/opinions on, or for any kind of theme that this page could evolve into. You can leave me a comment below, you can email me at rightbrainstruggles@gmail.com, or, if you know me outside of the blog, feel free to text me! Although I don’t write this blog with intentions of reaching a massive following or anything like that, it does make it easier to keep up with it knowing I’ve got people engaged in the content I am creating, and your ideas and suggestions will help immensely with that.

Sorry for the major delay again, and for the double-whammy of this post not really containing much content, but I’m hoping to gain some more steam going forward and hopefully get back to more regular postings. Again, please leave me some ideas/suggestions/feedback if you can.

Thank you again for joining me, and until next time, stay healthy, happy, and safe! 🙂
