The last week or so has been a struggle with the motivation to read and write generally. It feels like I write to an empty stadium and that getting published by a magazine or website is so far off. A career in travel or war journalism so unrealistic and unobtainable means I sink further into a pit of self-doubt on if all this effort is worth it. By no means does it mean I'll give up, but just an honest and brutal take on where my headspace is.
Trying to balance keeping fit through running, actually travelling, and working a full-time job to keep a roof over my head is a constant juggling act. To add, I recently royally cocked up a job interview for a Team Leader position and, ultimately, a chance at a pay rise, albeit a small one.
All we can do is keep trying, day after day. See you in tomorrow's blog.
