Working extensively for many hours nonstop without regular breaks is the fastest way of burning yourself out. That's not recommended. Try to create a schedule for blogging and try to balance the blogging with other elements of your life.
If you are aware of what you want, your desire to accomplish, it will be easier to create a schedule. A schedule will act as a reminder to you, and that will keep you going. Find the best plan that works for you. You could opt to work during the day or at night.

Change blogging spots to avoid mental and physical draining. You can step outside and get some fresh air. It will help you stay motivated.
You can also try a different working space. You could move to the library, café or other public spaces that have Wi-Fi. Continuously look for new areas to work from. That way you will stay motivated to write.
6. Make friends, keep each other accountable.
Get blogging friends or enthusiasts who keep pushing you to be the better version of yourself. When you see them working hard, you will be pushed to do the same, even when you do not feel like doing anything.
It is equally important to have people around that you can talk to when you are struggling with something. It will be nice to get these things off your chest to help you get back to what you love doing.
To get friends in your blogging niche, join social media groups on Facebook, Gab, Whisper among others and reach out to people. On social media, you can engage with a lot of people, create conversations and make a lot of friends. This will keep you motivated as a blogger and encourage to write even more.
Ultimately, getting your blogging motivation is very important. You can become the blogger you aspire to be if you stay motivated.
