Hello Everyone! Welcome To My Blog. 

I used to get excited about my goals instantly. Whether it was skincare, learning a new skill, or even something wild like learning to ride a bike—I could throw myself into it wholeheartedly. But lately, even the things I love… feel a little flat. Especially blogging.

For a while now, I’ve noticed that blogging doesn’t excite me the way other things do. Even with studies—which I don’t enjoy much—I feel more involved than I do with blogging. So I started wondering: Do I really not like blogging? Or is it because it’s not giving me instant gratification? Or maybe it's because I don't put pressure on other things the way I pressure myself with blogging?

I wanted to understand why I was feeling this way—why I couldn’t manifest success through blogging, even though I’ve been posting 2–3 blogs per week.

In this post, I’m sharing how I’m shifting my mindset to rediscover joy—not by chasing something new, but by reconnecting with something I already chose: blogging.

When Passion Doesn’t Feel Like Passion Anymore

I started blogging in December 2023. I slowly began seeing some success in June–July 2024, but because of the pressure from studies, work, and other things, I wasn’t able to stay consistent.

Whatever success I did get slipped away really fast. It felt like the time it took to succeed in blogging was much longer than the time it took to lose it. After over a year of hard work and not enough progress, I lost my old blog.

But I didn’t want to give up. I decided to come back stronger—and that’s how I started again with Quiet Rise.

When I restarted blogging in April 2025, I thought I’d fall in love with it right away. I assumed I’d feel the same excitement I usually get when starting something new. But instead, it felt distant—like I was doing it, but not really in it.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been blogging for more than 1.5 years, and I’m tired of not seeing even small results. For small bloggers or creators, a little progress—like a few good views—can be so motivating. But that hasn’t happened for me yet. No success. And that made me feel less driven.

That’s when I started to question everything. Do I even enjoy this? Why isn’t it flowing like other things do for me? I felt frustrated and confused. I love writing. I love expressing myself. So why did this feel so hard?

What I Realized About Joy and Growth

One day, while journaling, something clicked: I don’t feel connected to blogging—not because I don’t like it—but because I’m expecting it to feel magical right away.

Even studies overwhelm me and aren’t fun, but I’ve still managed to manifest my dream marks and recently topped my class. That reminded me that real joy—the kind that stays—doesn’t always come with fireworks. Sometimes it grows slowly.

That’s when I realized I needed to stop waiting to feel obsessed with blogging and instead create the energy I wanted to feel.

Maybe I haven’t been able to manifest success in blogging because I’ve been too focused on the outcome. I’ve been chasing monetization and thinking about becoming financially independent. That goal isn’t wrong, but maybe it's not the right way to approach blogging.

I think I need to give pure, honest content to people like me—so I can truly help them. I do write with that intention, but I’ve been overly focused on results lately.

Now, manifesting joy to me means more than just visualizing success. It means showing up, doing the work, and choosing to enjoy the process—even when things are slow.

How to Manifest Joy in Blogging: Reignite Your Passion Through Action

3 Ways I’m Reconnecting With My Passion

1. Romanticizing the process

Earlier, I used to write whenever I had time, wherever I was. But now, I make the experience feel more special. I sit somewhere comfortable, drink water, and sometimes enjoy a cup of tea or coffee before writing.

I haven’t fully romanticized it yet, but I’m trying to make it feel less like a task. Of course, blogging is part of my weekly work—but I’m learning to approach it with less pressure.

I used to stress over everything—titles, SEO, keywords, meta descriptions, tags—but now I still focus on these things with a calmer mindset.

I’m also making changes to my routine to avoid boredom and overwhelm.

2. Focusing on how I feel while doing it

Instead of thinking, “Will people like this post?”, I ask, “Do I like this moment?” This helps me stay present and enjoy the writing itself.

Because how I feel affects how I write—and how I write is the most important part. If I only focus on the result, it won’t work.

I’m trying to be more mindful, focusing on the present moment, on myself, and on my blog—not on whether it will get enough traffic, shares, or comments.

3. Taking the pressure off results

I’m letting go of the need for perfect posts or instant feedback. I want blogging to feel like a creative playground again—not a test.

As I said, I used to focus too much on results—monetizing, reaching audiences, getting likes and shares.

Now, I’m letting go of that pressure and focusing on the moment. I still visualize success, but I’m not forcing it. I’m trusting the process more.

4. Starting with curiosity

I also realized something important: writing about trending topics is good, but not if I don’t connect with them.

I no longer write blogs just because they’re high in search volume. If I don’t have experience with a topic, how can I guide others?

Now I only write about things I’ve actually experienced. Things I’ve felt and learned from. That way, my readers get something real—and maybe even a solution to something they’re facing too.

Conclusion 

Joy Doesn’t Always Announce Itself—Sometimes You Build It

I’m learning that joy and growth aren't always loud. Sometimes it’s quiet and steady—and just as powerful. I still have a long way to go, but I’m starting to feel a spark again.

It’s only been two months since I restarted blogging. But I know that in the next few months, I’ll achieve more success—maybe even more than I did with my old blog. My content will be more powerful, more helpful, and more meaningful for people who are also learning, growing, and dreaming big.

Manifesting everything at once isn’t possible. Sometimes your vision board fails. Sometimes plans don’t go the way you imagined.

But I’ve learned this: focusing too much on results blocks the joy. Manifesting doesn’t only need action and visualization—it also needs courage, consistency, a strong purpose, love for your work, and many small things we often forget to value.

And I’m sure—I will find success in blogging this year, before September. I’ll reach more people, and I’ll help them grow. 🌱

FAQs 

1. Why do I lose excitement for something I used to love?

Answer: Sometimes, the pressure to succeed or the routine around a passion can dull the excitement. It’s not always about losing love—it might just mean you need to reconnect in a new, gentle way.

2. Can I manifest joy if I’m not naturally excited anymore?

Answer: Yes! Joy isn’t always about feeling instantly excited. You can manifest it by being present, adjusting your mindset, and finding beauty in small steps and daily routines.

3. How do I know if I should give up or just shift my approach?

Answer: If you still feel a pull toward it—even a small one—it’s worth shifting your approach before quitting. Try changing how you engage with it instead of walking away immediately.

4. What if my passion isn’t giving results—should I still keep going?

Answer: Results take time, especially with creative passions. If your purpose feels right, it’s okay to slow down, breathe, and focus on giving value instead of only chasing outcomes.
