Take A Day Off And Go Do Something Else

No matter how well you structure your blogging schedule, you’re eventually going to run up against a wall where you just don’t feel like posting. Note that this is a different wall where you draw a complete blank when it’s time to write something. That’s an entirely different after school special, and one I’ll probably write about in the future.
If you do take the time to create an editorial calendar, so you know what you’re going to post about, try and write two or three posts at one time and schedule them in WordPress to go live on their regular schedule. And then, take a day or two off. Obviously you’re going to need to check in on the day the post goes live to submit it to BloggingZoom, but other than that, go do something else. The world won’t end if you take one day off, so long as you’ve got two or more posts ready to drop in the future.
I actually took the last weekend off, and I have to admit to being a little more fired up with what I want to get accomplished and written for the next two weeks or so. As long as I’ve got posts ready to go, I don’t feel guilty about taking the time off at all.
Because there are definitely times when it’s better to step away and refocus on what you want to say. A little time off can help in ways that you won’t realize until you actually do it.

I would rather read fewer posts that are better quality than a bunch of medicore posts. That is the reason why people should take a day off blogging if their posts are going to be medicore, because they are uninspired.
