    • You develop blogger’s block. (This is a temporary stumbling block. Don’t give up. You’ll have an idea soon.)<\/li>\n
    • Self-doubt tends to ruin your creativity. (Keep writing. It will get easier.)<\/li>\n
    • You barely have time for lunch breaks. (No time for lunch = No time for blogging)<\/li>\n
