A little over a year ago--between busyness, burnout, and various emotionally taxing issues--I found I just couldn't enjoy writing anymore. n fact, I actually asked myself if I still wanted to maintain a ten-year-old hobby. So I took a four month break and focused on other things, and finally I was ready to return, but I couldn't force it. It's possible your mind is crying out for a vacation. Even nowadays, I have to constantly remind myself why I love writing because I get discouraged so easily. :/ I hope you get your mojo back. :) Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-44903857584234589602015-02-25T13:08:49.395-08:002015-02-25T13:08:49.395-08:00Hmm.

For both my writing, and other areas of my life as well. <br />I struggle with perfection in some ways, and recently, I feel like I've lost my passion for everything that used to come so easily. Not sure what to do.

But thinking I'm the best always makes me lesser.

As harsh as it sounds it's important to remember that we're not the best thing ever, that our writing has issues, that it won't ever be perfect - and to accept that, laugh, and keep going from there.
