If you’re a blogger, one of the main challenges you always have to deal with is the lack of blogging motivation.



Sometimes it will be there and you’ll be on fire, but other times it will just be gone. And when it’s gone for longer than you would like it to, you have to do something about it.



So, today I will share with you some of my favorite ways to stay motivated as a blogger so you can keep coming back to your blog and growing it. 



Consistency is key in this business model, so whenever you feel down, definitely take the time to feel your feelings and heal if necessary, but also make sure you have effective ways to pick yourself up and get back to blogging. 



So here are some things that work for me and might work for you too.



How to Find Blogging Motivation



1. Remember why you started. 



I know this sounds simple, but this is sort of the deepest reason why you do what you do. 



If you don’t have it yet, you might want to dig deeper and find it, because it’s the one thing that can save you in those moments of desperation, when you feel like giving up, when nothing seems to be working out.



Even when you define that reason and write it down, I suggest you dig even deeper. This is what I call the why that makes you cry. Find it.



Find the reason so deep, so personal, so touching, so moving, that you have tears in your eyes just thinking about it. 



2. Pick the right niche. 



If you did, you’re passionate enough about it and have a lot to say about it, then you can create new content forever.



If not, you might run out of ideas quickly and you might leave your blog behind, which is sort of the worst thing you can do. 



But sometimes, even if you’re in the right niche, you might lose motivation, your creativity might be gone, and that’s when all the other items on the list I’m sharing with you are going to help. 



3. Learn more about your niche.



If you’re indeed in the right niche and cover topics you deeply care about, you might need to learn more or improve your skills or achieve some results in your personal life with whatever it is you’re teaching.



Then you can analyze that, regardless of what the result was, and share it with your audience in the form of inspirational posts, step-by-step guides, long and optimized articles that can rank well, or just emails that you send to your email list. 



This is how you create new content, keep the momentum going, and keep growing your blog effortlessly. 



4. Create a blogging schedule.



You might lack discipline, and whenever motivation is gone, discipline can save us. Create a posting schedule that works for you and stick to it. 



Routine builds momentum and keeps you on track.



It might take some time till you find the most optimal time of the day to write content or the right productivity tools or techniques that help you get things done, but you’ll get there. 



You can start by listing all the blogging tasks you need to take care of, decide which are the most important ones, meaning that they bring you the biggest results in terms of traffic, income, audience growth, or anything else that you are measuring,
