					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.melinaelisa.com/dear-diary/#comment-2450&quot;&gt;Melina Elisa&lt;/a&gt;.

2 years really isn&#039;t alot. I use to always think it was, especially when started my blog. But if you think about companies, if a brand told me they&#039;ve been running for 2 years, I would think they are extremely new.
I don&#039;t know if this will help, but whenever I feel like I want to push myself in writing, I try to think of doing something completely different. Like uploading video content on my blog or writing a story post. Sometimes the risk does really well and other times it&#039;s not popular, but I&#039;ve never regretted anything. So is there anything you haven&#039;t done on your blog that you think wow, this is out my comfort zone?
I use my phone memo to jot down notes. It&#039;s funny sometimes though because I go back to notes from a previous week, and have to try to figure out why I wrote something like getting back on track.
Thank you for your sweet words. The feeling is mutual. xxx]]></description>

I completely agree. I&#039;ve been blogging for a little over 2 years now (which is a lot, but totally isn&#039;t at the same time), and while I know what I like writing about, I don&#039;t know how to raise the bar for myself? I&#039;ve been looking towards other bloggers and written works for inspiration, and it definitely helps. Whenever i get a good idea, I jot down a few sentences about my train of thought into my bullet journal which helps me A LOT. 
I&#039;m so glad to hear that you enjoy my blog, because it means a lot. I find you so talented, and one of my close blogging friends. Thanks for your thoughtful comment Laura xxx]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve been all over the place with my blog. What direction, what articles, is there enough of this or enough of that? I think when you&#039;ve been blogging for a couple of years, it&#039;s such a natural thing to question. I love your blog and I&#039;ve always loved following it. I think it&#039;s easy to read, it&#039;s interesting and very relatable. But if you want a new direction, I&#039;d try to look at other bloggers and see what things you like. 
I struggle with the winter as well. I&#039;m anxious and over worrying. I&#039;ve started writing down lists of everything I do each day, just to encourage myself to keep being productive. Cleaning your makeup and arranging etc is a HUGE thing! Because it&#039;s hard getting rid of products and it&#039;s one of those tasks that people just put to the back of their minds. xxx]]></description>
