We all struggle from time to time with evaluating the return on investment and justifying the time we spend here. When I'd only been here 3 months though, I don't think I was even getting the sort of amounts you're talking about, asides from the couple of posts that got picked up by curation trails and provided some nice returns.

I do understand needing to take time out to revitalise yourself though, as well as the burn out from posting too often. I'm considering going back to every other day (or Mon-Wed-Fri) posts instead of daily with the amount I've been skipping days lately.

Hope you find your groove again and work out a way to still be happy with what you're producing here, while getting better returns than you have been.
