How to Push Through a Writing Slow Patch

It’s just a phase. Keep moving forward.

Recently I’ve been seeing a lot of people mention how unmotivated they have been feeling as of late.

Unable to muster up the enthusiasm to get after their goals.

To write their next piece.

Or make steps towards their targets.

I too have been having these feelings of lacklustre.

Feelings that are not only confined to writing and the growth of my Medium profile.

But that has also spilt over into other areas of life.

And from what I’ve been reading there are a lot of other people in the same boat.

Basically, your motivation and drive are taking a break and you just can’t be bothered doing anything.

Sound familiar?

Address the issue

As with all the challenges that stand in the way of your success the first step is to address the issue.

Find the source of the problem and begin to make changes.

I’ve been pondering reasons for this recent lack of motivation and trying to come up with a possible explanation.
