Do You Stress Over Writing HIVE Posts? Sometimes I do...
Today, I woke up happy. I was excited about being so active on HIVE in the past month and that my posts are getting upvoted more... I was looking forward to what to write today until I realized I didn't have any good ideas to write.
Anxiety took over!
I noticed that I stress about writing articles on HIVE more often than I'd like to admit. I can think of some ideas but they're not good enough or I'm not passionate about them enough to actually write them.
For example, I started a new series of posts: Trivia Tuesday. I thought that would make writing something each week easier. It's easy to research Fun Facts about random topics, but I'm struggling to come up with good topics. I can think of many topics, but I don't feel good about any of them.
I think it's only my anxiety that makes me overthink my ideas, or my standards might be too high, but it's hard to not overthink it. I feel like most of my energy that should go to writing is spent on thinking ideas of posts.
That's why I wrote the title of this post and started writing my feelings without caring about how good or bad it'll turn out.
I tried to be minimal in the process of this post. Just write whatever in my mind. Just draw something in 10 minutes. Just Publish! I'm glad I managed to get it out of my chest, at least.
Do You Struggle With This Too?
Do you stress over ideas of what to post on HIVE? How do you overcome that? Or do you easily come up with your ideas and start writing? Please tell me your thoughts in the comments.
I totally do too!
Sometimes I have some great ideas in mind but can't properly elaborate on them, it suckss.
But I have been a lot more active lately and that makes me happy.
I totally understand... I decided to not think about it too much and only post when I'm not stressed about posting.
I am not stressing about writing Hive posts. I am not stressing about nothing. I write my Hive posts mostly for myself. This is my personal blog. My personal diary. I document my life on the Hive blockchain.
I get your point but just dont, write what you want and if you dont feel like just dont, its really not worth stressing out over creating a blog post, you cant be creative if you are all stress out, sometimes I take a break and come back, all my post take me over 3 hours to create but its my hobby so I stop when ever I feel like
That's a good advice... I used to do that, but recently, I felt the need to "earn more" on HIVE, and started feeling bad on the days I don't write.
I agree that stopping is actually better for my mental health, and deep down I knew but maybe I needed someone else to remind me.
Anyway, while this post took 20 minutes to write. Usually most of my posts take 3 hours too. I wonder if there's any way I could speed up.

My method is to split task, I mainly write about things I watch, F1, Tv series, movies so my process is watch, take screenshots, edit images, create post structure and write the content, I use a wordpress blog to organize all this and have a kind of step by step guide, from taking screenshot, edit images and write the post I take hours breaks so its not tedious process

Great topic there @ahmadmanga, and sorry that it gave you stress, I am not writing so much topics myself any more as time is not really enough, mostly just Actifit for a daily post, but when I did daily posts or videos about topics I remember that I always read a lot of posts from others, which also gave me great ideas for my own posts, we can't give unless we feed ourselves first, take care and stay awesome.

I felt like you were writing my thoughts while reading your post 🙂. Everything you said is true about me, sometimes I get ready to write but I have no die what it should be. This might even stop me from writing at the moment or even the day 🙈, I'm not full of ideas, I wonder how others do it!
Thanks for reading. I knew I'm not the only one... I'm full of ideas, but I don't feel most of them are good enough, and I can't write a full post for many of them.
