Why did I stop writing, and why am I starting again?

It has been an year since I started the Dream Workplace. And it is still under works. My writing on LinkedIn was a way to create an audience before I announce The Dream Workplace. And to an extent, that has helped.

But for nearly nine months, I stopped. Why?

Literally, no one cares

But, I thought I should clarify.

First of all, at the frequency I was writing (nearly every day of the week), I ran out of ideas. It was a complete idea drain. There are only so many ideas in the world. Second, and most importantly, my kids sleep schedule changed. They were sleeping a bit late, and I just did not want to miss their little conversations. Yes, there were nights when I had to step out, because there was pending work. You see, they are growing, and it is important that we try to cherish these moments as much as possible. Third, there was a bit of work that was always pending, and I had to sacrifice my writing for that.

Fourth, there was something I was working for The Dream Workplace.

Fifth, I found another avenue to write - the SunTec newsletters. Please do subscribe to them. And most importantly, my backlog of articles got over, and I needed to build another set again.??

WIll I write again? Of course I will. It is just that I am planning to reduce the frequency. Probably twice, or thrice a week. Until then…

I empathize. Idea drain is a common phenomenon. Perhaps you need to change perspective
