Don't write for views. Write because you have something to say. Views aren't the only metric you can use to measure the impact your words have on people. The content game will have you believing if you don't dedicate your entire existence to writing, you can't succeed. That's not the case.

More articles MAY guarantee you more views, but if you spend all your writing time chasing those metrics, you'll find yourself on the wrong end of the candle burning out. That chase ain't worth it.

Keep writing as your schedule allows and let the quality of your content speak for itself. The content monster is never satiated. Give yourself some grace.
