Lately even though I might not have shown it too much because I was still writing posts I had kinda lost my blogging mojo, not in a massive way but I wasn’t exactly feeling blogging the way I used to. I was feeling a little down in the dumps about my blog, the way it looks, just everything about it, I couldn’t put my finger on why but I did and I just lost all love for it.
I think a lot of it was because I want to be successful so I put more pressure on myself to work harder so I can reap the rewards that come with blogging. I have been so lucky with my blogging journey, the fantastic companies I’ve got to work with, the incredible people I have had the pleasure to meet and I am so grateful for it all! So how did I manage to get my blogging mojo back?
One. Interact with people
Speaking to people honestly helps when it comes to getting my blogging mojo back mainly because it gets me inspired, it gets me to keep blogging, to keep challenging myself and to keep going with my journey. Blogging is such a positive and huge part of my life, I’m super grateful for every opportunity I’ve had.
Two. Follow new people
I’ve actually been doing this more and more, mainly because I feel like as my blog has grown with me and I love exploring new blogs and finding new people because there are literally so many incredible bloggers out there that don’t get the recognition they deserve!
Three. Time away from blogging
Sometimes when you’re blogging you’re in this bubble, it’s a pretty good bubble to be honest but sometimes you kind of forget the outside world! Spending time with the people you love, especially me with my husband actually inspires me to write more!
Four. Read more blogs
I had actually stopped reading blogs for a while because I was so busy I couldn’t find the time but now I am making more of an effort to read more blog posts and support more bloggers because they deserve to be recognised for their hard work!
Overall getting my mojo back has been so hard, but I’m working so hard on continuing to blog, continuing to work hard and make sure my blog posts are high quality!

Reading blogs honestly makes everything better, I’m definitely in a much better blogging place! xxxx
So glad to hear that you got your blogging mojo back! It can definitely be hard to keep up with blog posts and always feel inspired. Especially when it’s about something you really care about. Reading more blogs and sharing love always helps me. xo

I am really enjoying sharing the blogging love right now, it’s been a while since I’ve been able to comment on blog posts so I’m loving it! xxxx
Great to hear you’re getting back into it! I’ve felt kind of separate from the blogosphere for a while, but am looking forward to getting back into it! xx

I’m always here if you need anything my darling! I think we can all feel disconnected sometimes and it sucks! xxx
Hey Amie
There have definitely been times where all mojo has gone missing from with in me. I think its happened to all bloggers at some stage. One thing that helps me to stay motivated is to read other people’s blogs. Also, just as my mojo hits an all-time low, I’ll get a positive comment or an uplifting email which really works wonders with helping me to dust myself off, and get back up.
I hope this comment has helped a bit.
Congrats! I hope you keep feeling inspired and filled with mojo!
I’m following!

We are all in the same boat and we should lift people up and support others! xxxxx
Some fab tips here! I think all of us struggle a little with losing our blogging mojo! I really agree that interacting more with others really helps! Personally I think taking a break helps me the most!xx

Thank you darling! Talking to people within the community is the most important thing to me because we are all trying to do the same thing! xxxx
I lost my blogging mojo big time for a few months. Now I’m getting back on my blogging game. For me it was rethinking what kind of content I want to create and getting out so I have experiences that I want to share. Love your posts and I’m glad you found your mojo again 🙂

Yay! So happy you’re back my darling! xxxxx
Yes, I am currently lost my mojo and here I am reading more blogs! It is so true; I think I was putting too much pressure on myself! I love your blog by the way – I have a lot of catching up to do on posts so have added some to my reading list! Today is a blogging day!
Thank you so much for your support Steph it means a lot! I think reading blogs is always a good way to get back into the swing of things! xxxx
I recently went through a blogging slump and really found looking for new blogs to read and catching up on my favourites helped a lot!

I think we all do sometimes, and it’s natural but we have so many amazing people in the community! xxxxx
I’d definitely lost my mojo for a while, but now I’ve had a rebrand, I feel super inspired again 🙂 xx
A rebrand can always really help and I love your rebrand, it’s amazing! xxx
I’m glad you found your mojo again lovely! Definitely some good advice in there. It’s easy to forget that at the heart of it should be reading blogs, commenting and interacting with other bloggers instead of worrying about drama. Welcome back+ xx
Thank you so much Ada it means a lot! It’s been a struggle to be honest because my blog means so much to me! xxxx
I hit a bit of a bad patch with my blog around Easter and I’m only starting to get my blogging mojo back now. I think time away from it was just what I needed x
