Well I hope this helps: It has been a year since I branches out. 0 regrets. I'm back after a break once again and Steemit is still here ^^ This is why I actually take breaks and re evalue things quite often. Especially considering Steemit isn't your regular income, blogging for me is just a hobby. Life takes priority.
Also everyobe should be reminded that there are too many things we take for granted.
Good luck

That sure helps! Thanks for letting me know your own experience, @kristyglas :)
I think you are right, it is always good to take the time to re-evaluate where we are at.
And yep, Steemit isn't a source of earning for me, and like you, blogging is a hobby for me, too! And life DOES take priority, yep...
Thanks a lot for the visit and the comment, Kristy <3 I appreciate it :)
In the end it all depends on how much energy/stamina you have ^^ I simply have less haha
I really dont have that much either, to be honest, it is EXHAUSTING how much time and energy I'm spending into Steemit .... some days I wonder why I keep doing it.... Not to toot my own horn, but I have been upvoting, commenting, and curating many Steemians' posts faithfully (that is: DAILY) for more than a year now and from time to time, this burns me out completely.
I've made over 22,500 comments since I joined 1.5 years ago, and I think that averages over 50 comments every day. Doing 'em takes time. And I don't do the "This is a nice post!" type of commenting either. I take the time to read and respond to people's posts. It's a bit mad, some days.
Actually now that I sit down and assess and reflect, I really am a bit mad. LOL.
Hahha sorry, I know exactly what you mean. Personally i find making comments harder and more exhausting than posts, but I've always been rather antisocial. Damn I participated in the beast challenge on Whaleshares, and 50 comments daily is just incredible.
In psychology I believe his is called sunk cost fallacy, you can look it up :) Everything will be much more clear, we're almost all like that.
I'm actually going hrouh a burnout phase right now, but I know it's just temporary. However, that also means I still haven't found a healhy balance. You're doing awesome, especially with how consistent you are with drawing ^^
