What If All The Stories Were Already Being Told? As A Content Creator Have You Ever ...

... come to the point where you didn’t have anything new to tell?

I’m not talking about a classic writer’s block here or an uninspired time, I’m rather referring to a moment of deep fulfillment that makes you believe that you’ve accomplished everything you had been aiming for as an artist in your genre.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t wanna sound presumptions.

You may now tell me: Who do you think you are, with those handful surf videos you believe you’ve hit your peak?

Well honestly: Yes.

In other (my father’s) words:

This is your hundredth surf video, I can’t believe they’re still giving you money for it.

Oh, daddy I love your cruel but adorable honesty.

My priority has always been to have an impact on my audience.

Yes, writing is an incredibly selfish process since you assume that people would actually like or even reward what keeps yourself busy.

Yet, if there wasn’t anybody engaging or identifying with our stories, this would be a quite biased and also sad scenario.

No, we don’t create content for ourselves, we definitely create it to interact, connect, leave a mark, build legacy, educate, teach, inspire, amuse and so on.

What do you think: Are we all able to do that job forever?

Let me know in the comments if you want.

Big hugs & much love from the beach, Marley - ❤️
