The Truth About Chasing What Won’t Change

 


Sometimes doing the same things can end up burning you out. Trying to make and force things to happen or change when they can't change or won't change is only going to drain and depress you and make you feel as if you have failed. If something shows you that it's not going to work then evedently it's not going to work.

 Sometimes the things you want to work and have been working years on is going to end up failing and that is okay.

 It is going to hurt but it is okay. It does not mean give up on the dream and goal it just means to take a break and leave it alone. 

If it is mean to come up it will eventually but if it's not meant to be, it's not meant to be just keep pushing and do something new.

It's a tough pill to swallow but me, myself I am now learning this with affiliate marketing and my blogs and everything else that is not working for me but for some reason, I keep coming back thinking it's going to change or maybe I'm doing something wrong but I have had this blog since 2015ish and nothing really changed except I got AdSense but I only made one dollar from then to here and nothing more. 

Affiliate marketing, I have made really nothing with. It is hard to get people to click links. It is hard to get traction and explain to people why the need the product and it is especially hard to stand out more than the others who are also doing it.

My books, my clothing design same thing. It is hard to get things off the ground even if you push and network. It is hard and it's nothing anyone is doing wrong it's just to many people doing the same things.

Why We’re All Exhausted — And What We Can Do About It

If you’ve been feeling mentally drained, emotionally checked out, or just tired for no reason lately, you’re not alone. A lot of us are running on empty, trying to hold everything together while the world keeps throwing new challenges our way. Between work, family, bills, and all the pressure to “keep up,” it’s no wonder so many people feel burnt out.

The truth is, burnout doesn’t just happen overnight. It builds slowly. It shows up in smaller ways first — losing interest in things you used to enjoy, feeling irritated over little things, or waking up tired even when you slept enough. Most people push through it thinking it’s normal, but it’s really your body and mind begging for a break.

One of the biggest reasons burnout feels so common now is because life never seems to slow down. We’re reachable 24/7. We’re constantly comparing ourselves to others online. We feel guilty for resting. And when life gets overwhelming, it’s easy to forget that we matter too — our health, our peace, our energy.

So how do we deal with it? The answer isn’t fancy. It’s actually simple:

Start taking care of yourself on purpose.
Not when you break down. Not when you’ve hit your limit. Not when you “have time.” On purpose.

That means saying no when you’re overwhelmed, even if you feel bad about it. It means resting without feeling guilty. It means taking small steps each day to slow your mind down — whether that’s journaling, breathing exercises, reading, disconnecting from your phone, or just letting yourself do absolutely nothing for a moment.

Most importantly, it means remembering that burnout doesn’t make you weak. It means you’ve been strong for too long without giving yourself the same care you give everyone else.

Life will continue to be busy. Responsibilities won’t magically disappear. But you can make room for yourself. You deserve that. Your peace matters. And taking care of yourself isn’t selfish — it’s necessary.

If you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, or running on fumes, this is your reminder to pause, breathe, and put yourself first for once. You can’t pour from an empty cup, and you don’t have to feel guilty for refilling it.
