All hail the break

My last blog post was about a photographer’s interest in daguerreotypes and then I didn’t write for an entire week.

I pride myself on the consistency I've had with these blog posts. If you go all the way back to late 2018 when I decided to start writing every day, you will see that I didn’t believe in myself. I was sure I’d do it for a week and then give up. I didn’t. Here I am years later still pressuring myself to write every day.

I’m starting to think that a more extended break is just as important as being able to be consistent.

This week off has been just that. A much-needed break.

Your ability to work hard is important, but it’s better to be able to work relatively hard for years. Take breaks and work hard in between the breaks.
