I write all the cause which slow down my blogging gear. I write all of the cause in this article – the old and the newest – therefore it is clear that the cause in this article is not only the cause of current writer block situation but also the cause of others writing block situation that i faced before.

I hope this article make me to become fully aware of the cause which lead me in writer block situation and then so I can avoid it in future. We should learn something from our each bad situation, right?

And here the culprit and also*(may be) the solutions:

Sickness

Yeah – sickness surely the big factor for this current hard situation of my blogging time. I was sick for almost three days, plus two days for full recovery. This situation make me do not able to do all of my blogging activities such as writing, commenting, reading, social media submitting, etc. The whole my blogging activities was fully shut down. It is surely a big set back for me – especially about blogging. And guess what? Yes, the problem is not solve completely even i am already recover from my sickness. It is because the long pause make that needed hard work to recover my sense of blogging.

Solution: Try to never have long time sickness. Always care of our healthy — we should make our healthy as our first priority in our life. It is hard to care our healthy when we always in front of our computer. Therefore we need to take time and rest our body. We should off from our blogging, do some exercise – and also do not forget to sleep and eat in schedule.

Game

Yeah – a game surely can drag me from my productive blogging time into fully game time I am not gamers exactly but I play some of the classic game such as jagged alliance and heroes might and magic. And my time surely consume a lot if there are new episode from both of these classic game. It is because I will play it the whole day and surely it will harm my blogging activities.

Solution: Do not ever try to start to play a game – especially the game that we like so much. If we already started it and can not stop, please stick to our schedule that we already decide before. As example, we set our schedule to only play a game 2 hour a day so we still have time for our blogging.

Season Holiday

My blogging activities are also slow down when in Christmas and new year holiday before. Usually, holiday will boost my blogging activities in highest gear since I am a part time blogger which have off line job that consume my time in daily work. Therefore, each off work (holiday) is optimized for blogging activities. I also intend to do that in pass Christmas and new year holiday but it do not work as I plan. It is because Christmas and New year holiday is a special occasion in which I will spend my time with my big family. It is hard to find a time to blog.

Solution: Honestly, I do not have a solution for this because I think that it is good that we spend our time with our family for holiday. Therefore, the only solution that I can think is that we schedule our post during this holiday which I do not think it as real solution.

Off Line Working

As I mention before that I am a part time blogger – I have my 8 to 5 off line job in a company where I almost spend all of my time in working day. I can manage my blogging in high gear if it is in normal 8 to 5 working situation but sometime, there is a big project that make me work for almost 24 hours a day. This situation surely lead me in hard situation. It is really hard to maintain my blogging activities in this crazy busy situation so as consequence, my blogging will be slow down into lowest blogging gear.

Solution: We should set our priority in this situations. If our priority is blogging, we should to think become a full time blogger. And if our priority is our off line working, we should take a rest from our blogging and focus in our off line work. And after all set, we can start again our blogging in full gear. I think we also can still blogging in this extreme busy situations – We may can allocate one hour a day for our blogging – but surely it is in very slow blogging speed.
