For me, blogging is really essential in my life though it actually came to a point that I stopped working full-time and be a blogger full-time. I am sure that this is something that all bloggers have experienced especially when they are now realizing the benefits of becoming a professional blogger. Though it may sound glamorous and very fun, deciding to go full-time is actually a very big decision. You have to really be prepared to take risks and sacrifice the advantage of the other.
As a part-time blogger, your main source of income is of course, your full-time job but this is supported by the part-time gigs that you have. Though it sounds fun, one drawback is that you don’t have the freedom to think about certain topics because most of your time is occupied by your full-time job. There is also a possibility that your creative juices are already gone once you started writing on your blog. In terms of being a full-time blogger, you have all the time in the world and you could have as many blogging gigs as you want. The only problem in that is managing all of these commitments together and making sure that you have the time to have quality output for each.
The main thing also considered here is stability. As a full-time blogger, the stability that you have is questionable as opposed to having full-time work and blogging. It is really a personal choice and you have to decipher on these two options.
