Is Blogging a Job? Exploring the Varying Perspectives. 💼💻🤔

Do you think blogging is a job? ⠀ Before reading further, answer this question in the comments. And now you can continue. ⠀ My opinion. Yes and no. It depends on who we consider as a blogger. And here it is necessary to speak about each person separately. ⠀ I know guys who spend a maximum of 15 minutes a day on a blog. Often this is not their main source of income. ⠀ And there are those who work 25/7, and here any other person from an ordinary profession will really seem like just a bum. ⠀ I can only speak for myself. For me, this is work. Favorite, but work. Moreover, all my friends who know me admit that they would not physically do it. ⠀ Why? Well, if only because the last day off I had... five years ago? 🤔 Maybe six. I usually sleep 5-6 hours. More often at airports with dripping saliva and absolute indifference to what they think of me. Because there is no more time to sleep. ⠀ The rest of the time: a) I'm filming b) I edit photos, write captions; c) I'm flying somewhere. At this time, a vegetable mode turns on in me, I once fell asleep on the plane while standing, waiting for my turn to take a seat... d) exploring something (and filming) e) I reply e-mails, buy tickets, etc. ⠀ I am a journalist, and a photographer, and an editor, and a secretary, and a mad boss who gives heat if something doesn’t work out. ⠀ My working day is from 9 am to 3 am. ⠀ The trick is that working at a regular job, you get paid for your 8 hours and that's it. You know that you finished your work, went home and rest. Okay, at least on the weekends you can relax. ⠀ And here you are your own boss. And I'm a strict boss, so I bang myself worse than anyone else. And this is one of the reasons why I have signed contracts with top brands, hotels and destinations for the years ahead. ⠀ Every day I have a dozen tasks. Postponing which, the next day I will have 20 tasks. ⠀ Well, let's be honest! If it were easy, we'd all be sipping cocktails somewhere in the Maldives right now ;) And after all this, we are back to the question from the first sentence ☝🏻
