How To Stay Inspired While Blogging


Blogging is hard work to be honest. Whether it's just a hobby, part time job or full time job, it's difficult. Trying to think of new and interesting topics to talk about and taking the "perfect" photo is a lot. So there have been times where I just lost all confidence and motivation in anything I did, related to blogging. I didn't want to think about it or be apart of it. I was lacking inspiration. After awhile I came to the conclusion that my rut was going to continue, if I didn't do something about it. I gained my motivation from little things that mean so much. Have you ever heard of the saying "sometimes the little things mean more than the bigger things". Whether it was a comment on my blog or someone asking if I was ok. That meant a lot to me, because it showed that I was noticed. Not in a conceited though, I hope you understand. So during the times where I stopped blogging, I always found myself going to the same places for inspiration. I'm going to share these ways of staying inspired while blogging and I hope this helps you! 

Reading Blogs
This is the number one way I find motivation to blog again. In no way is this to "scope out" the competition, because this isn't one. I love reading other blogs for ideas, especially posts that have tips to be better. For example, "Ways to make your pictures better" or "Things you could do for your blog if you don't feel like writing". These are super helpful to me and I've improved so much with my blog.
 
Pinterest 
I'm obsessed with Pinterest, I can pin for hours! Whenever I'm not in the best mood or I need some motivation and inspiration, this is where I go. There is so much on Pinterest that I don't even know where to start. I love pinning things like makeup, curly hair pictures &  tips, hair & beauty, wedding inspiration, recipes, health/ fitness and celebrities! Depending on my mood that day I will focus on one to two boards! But if I'm feeling all over the place, I will pin everything! Whether you're a beauty, lifestyle, fashion, or food blogger the amount of ideas are endless!
 
Instagram 
Pinterest and Instagram are my favorite social media sites! In my opinion both are very similar to one another. I'm always inspired by Instagram feeds to improve and up my blogging game. Plus it's really interesting to see what someone is like by looking at their feed!
 
Twitter 
Twitter is helpful in finding motivation because of the chats you can get involved in. If you have a question, most likely someone will answer you. As for the twitter chats, there are so many. Sometimes it gets overwhelming because it's a lot and I know for me I forget. 
 
Changes
For me, if I'm down in the dumps I like to change the look of my blog. It can be little changes or big ones. Whether you want to change your blog name, design or the things you like to talk about. I say go for it, this will definitely give you motivation. Sometimes staying with the same topics can get quite boring, so feel free to spice things up! 
 
I hope you enjoyed reading and if you have things you do to stay inspired, let me know!

E.l.f. Eye Brushes

Although this haul is very small, I just wanted to share with you what I brought. I decided to buy brushes, because I needed them more! The first brushes I were eco-friendly and were really good, but their were more face brushes, then eye brushes. So that wasn't really helpful to me. It was only one eye shadow brush. I rarely shop online, I always go to the store. But I was bored one day and I guess this is what happened! I am really excited to try these brushes! I also brought some things from BH cosmetics, but that's for another post! Eye Shadow Brush The eye shadow brush is supposed to help apply the eye shadow evenly and make it easier. This sounds good, because the brushes I used in the past were tough and hard. It seemed like I had to put a lot of eye shadow on, before it actually showed up on my eyes. Blending Eye Brush This brush is supposed to blend the eye shadows, while softening dramatic edges and lines. This is really good, because before I h...

BH Cosmetics Eyebrow Tweezer

  Going to get your brows waxed costs money, so with that being said I rather do my own. Although I am not a professional I think I can manage. I do not wax my eyebrows. To be honest I have never waxed or tried to wax my brows. If you're like me in the department of not waxing, you find other ways to style (fix) your brows. For me I have only tried two products; one will be in this post and the other is linked here: Brow kit !     I have learned to love my brows just the way they are. But they do deserve to pampered at the same time. If I have a few eyebrow hairs that do not belong, I want something quick and easy to fix this. That is why I have my bh cosmetics eyebrow tweezer. I have written a few posts on bh cosmetics products, but I am not affiliated with them in any way. I just simply love their products because its still high quality products, but at a cheaper price. This is great because not everyone wants to spend a lot or are maybe on a bu...

Self Love Is So Important!

  Has there ever been a time where you felt unworthy? Unworthy of someone loving and caring for you. Have you ever disliked yourself so much, to the point where you would go into a dark place? I ask these questions not to necessarily get an answer back, but to let you know this happens to a lot of people. Self love is so important and everyone should feel good about themselves. Unfortunately in today's world that isn't the case at all. Society puts a label on what people should and should not look that. People judge one another 24 hours, 7 days a week and it's wrong. I've wanted to write this for a while now, but sometimes it's difficult. You don't want to offend anyone, but you also want to bring awareness to this topic. I'm not an expert on how to love yourself, but I do know what it's like to not have confidence. I know what it feels like to not think you're good enough, even when people tell you that you are.    I use to think I was I wa...
