Whenever I come across a reader, I always get asked:
How do you have time to blog?
People near and dear to me know these facts about me:
▸ I am a HUGE procrastinator
▸ I am an avid Netflix user
So how do I do it?
I toned down my unhealthy ways, and I became an enthusiastic blogger! It's almost an addiction, but in a healthy way, I promise! Livin' On Brightside gave me a place to be myself and helped me become a better person (Weird, I know! But it's so true!). I am getting to know wonderful girls through blogging and learning new things every day from these girls! My blog is a place of positivity and creativity.
Why wouldn't I want to blog!?
**Cough Cough** But I still watch my shows on Netflix...
Although, as a full-time engineering major, it can be tough... Blogging twice a week (before Livin' On Brightside was born) was hard enough, but these past couple of weeks, I blogged everyday!
(Update: I will be blogging every other day from now on, instead of everyday.)
It wasn't all that hard, I only took an hour or two of my day to blog, usually during work where I do nothing. I am awake from 6am to midnight, so that gives me eighteen hours to complete my daily tasks, like blogging and studying!
I take pictures all the time so the "visual effects" were never hard for me. I can usually go through my albums on my iPhone, and I would find something that relates to my blog post. I love writing and talking, in general, so content was not the problem either. I think the only time consuming aspect that comes with blogging, for me at least, is coming up with content that is enjoyable for the readers. I hate to be boring or bland, I try to talk about college-related topics and add some personality in my writing.
All in all, blogging isn't distracting me from my studies. In a way, it motivates me to study more and stay true to what I share with you all.
So if you want to blog but scared it'll take too much of your time, just refer back to this post. You could be a natural at blogging! You'll never know until you try! So take lots of pictures and write your little heart out! Find your niche and be passionate about it. Good luck!
I find as soon as you find a schedule balance between school and blogging it becomes so much more enjoyable! I love the chance to sit down and just talk things out with my readers, especially if it's been a rough day. Nice post!

I love writing casually, and being myself!
DeleteI especially love these comments!
Thank you so much!
I gave you a follow on BlogLovin!
Have a great day!
I have been struggling with balancing University and my blog, i'm lucky enough to share it with another person so it relieves some of the pressure. I always end up working on the blog early in the morning or very late at night, i'm hoping the balance will come eventually! x

I totally agree. That's what has been happening to me lately. I usually post RIGHT before midnight, which is something I want to change. My views and feedback are a lot better when I post throughout the day. So hopefully that will motivate me to take some time to blog within the day. Maybe lunch time? :D
DeleteGood luck to you! We are all looking for that balance :)
Excellent post - especially considering that I am also a huge procrastinator and avid Netflix user in addition to being a blogger and university student, so I related to this a lot.
