Starting Over: Why I Deleted 6 Years Worth of Blog Posts

11/3/2023

 
Blogging has been a passion of mine for many years. Over the past 6 years, I've poured my heart and soul into my blog, writing countless posts and building a loyal following. However, last year when I took a break I made the difficult decision to delete all of my blog posts and start over. In this post and since some have asked, I wanted to share with you the reasons behind this decision and why I believe it was the best choice for me.

A New Perspective

Over the years, my blog had become a reflection of who I was at the time. As I grew and changed as a person, my interests and passions also evolved. However, I found myself feeling constrained by the content I had previously published. I wanted to start fresh and create a blog that was a true reflection of who I am now.

A New Audience

My blog had been around for a while, and I had built up a large following throughout some of the years I've blogged. However, I felt that my content was becoming stagnant and repetitive. I wanted to attract a new audience, one that was interested in the topics that I'm passionate about now. By starting over, I felt that I could attract a new group of readers who share my current interests.

Clearing Out Clutter

Over time, my blog had become cluttered with outdated content, broken links, and irrelevant information. I wanted to clean it up and make it easier for readers to navigate. By deleting everything and starting over, I was able to create a more streamlined and focused blog.

A Fresh Start

I just felt like it was time for a fresh start. Starting over allowed me to approach blogging with a renewed sense of energy and excitement. It also gave me the opportunity to explore new ideas and experiment with new styles of writing.


Letting Go of Bad Memories

​In addition to the reasons above, there was another reason why I decided to delete my old blog posts. Over the years, my blog had become a reminder of some painful memories and experiences. Every time I looked at it, I was reminded of those difficult times. I realised that I needed to let go of those memories and create a fresh start for myself. Deleting my old blog posts was a way for me to let go of the past and move forward.

In conclusion, deleting my old blog posts was a difficult decision, but it was the right one for me. It allowed me to let go of bad memories, gain a new perspective, attract a new audience, clear out clutter, and have a fresh start. If you're struggling with feeling constrained by your blog, I encourage you to consider starting over as well. It can be a powerful way to let go of the past and move forward.
