I’ve seen a lot of geeky t-shirts in my time. But this one is pretty much the king of the nerd-castle, awesome…
(As you might have spotted, I’m struggling a bit with blogging at the moment. A combination of lack of time plus a general feeling of de-motivation which I’m hoping will pass soon).
Hey fella, don’t get too down on yourself. It’ll pass. Haven’t got anything more profound to say than that. I know how sit it can be trying to keep oneself motivated, but you know what it always passes.
you haven’t read mine yet. wish I’d never started it!
Iain,
That demotivation chappie can be a bit of a beast when it comes and taps us on the shoulder.
I’ve been thinking a bit like that myself recently. ‘What’s it all about’, ‘What’s the point’, “Am I/we/the blogging community going round in circles”, kind of stuff.
“Are we all pontifcating/futurising, but not actually doing/creating enough?”
But then I look back at some of the posts I wrote when I was cranking and up for it, and I see posts by others who’s optimism, attitude and insights are infectious, and I remind myself, as always, that the doldrums don’t dol or drum for long.
As Simon so rightly says; it’ll pass.
CrackUnit was one of the main reasons I got into blogging, it’s right rollicking read, as The Sun used to say.
So write as and when you feel like it; personally I find that giving someone/thing a right old slagging helps.
Makes me feel better no end.
(But I’m such a wimp I do tend to leave those posts collecting dust in the ‘Drafts’ folder;-)
I see de-motivation as a ‘motivational necessity’.
Embrace it sir.
Hello mate,
As you said over on mine – a lot of ‘developments’ at the moment are downright depressing – I know totally how you feel on the lack of motivation – I don’t think the onset of winter helps ;)
Guess we all just need to ride it out sometimes.
Here’s hoping it’s a short ride.
