What Do You Prefer Writing About When You Are Tired?
Today, we've been away trying to relax and have some fun with a few close relatives. Two of them we don't see very often because they are often away.
The day was fine and some time off is welcomed, but now that we are home, we are beaten.
And, as you can see, I haven't written my daily post yet...
For the past half an hour, maybe more, I tried to mentally browse a couple of themes I could write about today.
But nope... My mind is almost about to go on strike and leave me with a blank (actually, black) screen in front of my eyes.
And no, it's not from alcohol, at least in my case. I haven't been drinking any for over 20 years.
What tires me though are social interactions. It doesn't matter if they make me pleasure or not, I'm beat after being at an event, social gathering or even with a few close friends where I need to chit chat or even listen to others talk.
So here I am rambling because I am too fond of my daily posting routine.
But maybe something useful comes out of this post too.
What do you / would you write about when you are tired, assuming you don't want to skip the day?
There is the option to have something prepared in advance, in which case it doesn't matter how tired you are, you can post it (unless it's already scheduled).
To be honest. I didn't think I'd be so tired, or I would have gone this route.
There is the option you have a few filler posts already written to use when you need them. This is kind of similar to the option above but not exactly the same. The filler posts are not necessarily meant for one particular day or date, they are there as a draft to fill in when needed.
And now come the "live" options. I don't do videos, but knowing me, it would be even harder to articulate words when tired, than to type them. Maybe for others is the other way around.
Another option is a post with photos about your day or a specific moment or something similar. It doesn't require a focused mind, but you need the photos and being comfortable writing such posts. I used to write such posts every once in a while, but they are not my forte. And I also need to remember to take pictures, which I often don't. Except on vacations. Then I take too many of them, lol.
What if you are tired after a day at work (the 9-5 kind)? We can steal some ideas from @jongolson here and see how he manages the fixed schedule and still posts every day, after being self-employed for almost his entire adult life.
Do you have your own routine in this case, when you are tired and still wanting to publish a post on Hive? Please share!

Hmm
I have a routine of what I do when I get back from my 9-5 job. I'll share that later
Having a routine after your job makes perfect sense since it reduces the effort of thinking about how should you best use your remaining time then.
I always like to enjoy my day with my family, with my parents and siblings and my daughter. Its a real happiness for me.
Yes, family time is important and can't be replaced by anything else.
Random stuff. Maybe scroll around the community and see if anything excite me and write about it.
That's a good idea. Although I had ideas on what to write about. But they all needed too much effort from my mind and I couldn't focus.
When I feel tired, thats the time when I prefer to write something that provides happiness and spiritual calmness to my mind.
The most suitable genre then becomes literature. Both native and English. Writing becomes bearable for me, since I have my own realm of literature idea's.
Nice! Thanks for sharing. I am pretty calm (drained) when tired, but yeah, I wouldn't have the energy to write about anything that isn't easy on my mind at that time.
A person is happiest when he spends time with his friends and relatives and with his family.
I tend to write down a few ideas to write about but if I don't really have anything, I might run to Splinterlands to talk about a fight there.
That's a good idea. I tried it once or twice, but somehow, I didn't like very much talking about fights in Splinterlands. Other types of strategies, yeah, I like it more. But usually, that needs a more focused mind, and I'd probably not use it when I'm tired.
But for someone who posts about Splinterlands fights more regularly, yep, that seems like a good, maybe even great idea.

Try to write anything that comes into my brain. Sometimes it'll be absurd and sometimes it is about life 🤔. It's best not to think hard and let the brain flow like I'm commenting on your post without thinking of anything.
Read your post -> Brain processing -> Comment pop up out of nowhere and my hands just type it

Yep, writing whatever comes to your mind seems easy... if anything comes to your mind. :) Sometimes, when you are drained of energy, your mind just wants to be left alone to recharge.
Commenting is sometimes easier as you already have something to comment on and the comment is usually much shorter than a main post.
Most times it is always difficult to find inspiration when one is tired
