Burnout..

Let’s talk about the one thing I’m struggling with right now.. hard.

burn out…

When you do this kind of work, it’s hard to.. keep going. what I mean by that is, this work can take a lot out of you. Creating, editing, scheduling, or simply posting content, takes a lot of stamina and drive. Not only do you have to know what you’re doing, but you have to stick to your own schedule. It’s easy to tell yourself, “I can do this tomorrow… I don’t have to do this today.” But the more you do that… The harder it is to create the habit of actually posting the content you create. Or creating it in general.

Currently, I’m dealing with burnout right now. I have about 20 posts with tips and tricks for my Patreon In my head or written down… But I don’t have the energy to physically put them on a scheduled post.

You have to remember, that creating the content is half the battle. Scheduling your content is the other half. Whether you actually take the time to schedule things out, or attempt to stick to a posting schedule… It can burn out quickly. Especially be due too much too fast.

I have fallen short of my own calendar challenge. I’m human. While I didn’t expect to fall short this quickly… The first three months of this year have really got to me.

Who else is having difficulty keeping to the calendar challenge? 

In the comments below, tell me what makes it difficult for you to keep on track.

Here’s a couple tips and tricks, I adapt toward avoiding burnout;

-overbook yourself. If you schedule only allows so much time for you to work on content, creation, and posting… Stick with that schedule. Don’t go above and beyond if you don’t have the ability to.

-make sure to take time for yourself. Whether that’s one hot bath, a month, or a day that you just spend alone recharging your batteries. I know it might feel easier to use your free time toward Kent creation… But if you always do that, you’ll never have time for yourself and you’ll burn out.

-Be realistic with your content creation. If you don’t have the ability to bake a cake, but you have scheduled a cake sitting video… Maybe think of something different to do that you have the ability to accomplish in the time that you have allotted for  yourself. 

-start small. This is one of my biggest tips. I know you want to make a lot of money quickly… You want to take all my tips and tricks and create your own platform. But stuff like this takes time. Especially when you’re generating a new in a market that is already over saturated. Start with a simple schedule of once, or twice a week. Use one day for content creation, and the other day for Content posting or scheduling. Once you feel like you’ve got the hang of a small schedule, you can add an additional day of either creation or scheduling.

Currently, I’m dealing with burnout . If you ever feel like I’ve gone silent here, just know, I am juggling a lot, and am giving you what time I have. Some weeks I have more time than others. Not only do I have to juggle 2 regular full-time jobs, my content, creation, my content, scheduling, and my extracurricular activities that make me a sane human… But I’m also a professional burlesque performer who works events and has a local street team that performs biweekly. so I have a lot on my plate… But will continue to challenge myself not only for my own benefit, but for yours.

So please bear with me as I am learning how to juggle everything on my plate. You can expect at least one post a week here on Patreon. If you’re ever curious, or want the post to be about something specific… Please comment below, or DM me for a faster response.
