Another week, another list of resources I love!
(clockwise from top left)
-Here’s a great article by Flourish & Prosper about why bloggers shouldn’t expect to work for free. Go read it and pat yourself on the back for working so hard in Blogland (also, I should teach Kindergarten).
– I’m a little obsessed with Amber’s “Five Minute Disconnect” plan at Ember & March.
– Lisa Jacobs of Market Your Creativity recently shared 5 Must-Have Apps for Bloggers! Excited to try them out.
– Want to know how to write the perfect blog post? I do! I found this gem of a post in the archives of Noor Alqahtani’s blog. So much useful information. I’m especially happy that she mentions the secret pin board. Secret pin boards are my everything.
Lastly, Katie of Skunkboy Blog wrote this honest post about focusing on self-love, saying no, and ultimately applying less pressure to certain areas of life. It’s easy to get burnt out in this world no matter what you do on a daily basis. I love her perspective.
Have a bright summery day. Because like I said yesterday, it’s definitely still summer. :)

Loved this roundup!! Thanks so much for sharing… my Internet skills were in need of a bit of pampering today, so thanks for coming to my rescue! I especially like the five-minute disconnect plan: so needed! And the self-love/less pressure post from Katie @ Skunkboy was also super refreshing. I usually want to do EVERYTHING at once, better than ever, and then I crash, ha ha. A good reminder that we really are allowed to be human. :) Thanks, Jenn!

So happy it helped you today, Lucy! I tend to do everything at once also, but I’m trying to learn to pace myself. Motivation just comes in so many waves!

Thanks for sharing! Now that I’m determined to blog more (which I would do if my computer hasn’t died last week, hence my lack of comenting), I take every bit of advice I can! I recently read this post (found via the Bloglovin newsletter) which was very inspiring, plus it links to many other great posts! http://www.mediamarmalade.com/2014/09/how-to-turn-your-blog-ideas-into-live.html#.VBrUxJTV8Xc
