I found this week to be quite difficult to focus on my inquiry. With my busy schedule with school, work, and having a social life I did not really have the energy to put into engaging or posting on Instagram. I also think the weather has a huge effect on how motivated I feel. When it is cloud or cloudy, I just do not feel inspired to take photos or video. I am definitely looking forward to spring when I will be able to get outside more and see my other content creator friends as that really inspires me.
I did post a couple times, but did not really see any growth (actually I usually lose followers when I post which is common). I focused on valentine’s day content to maintain a consistent feed and focus on relevant content.
I would like to really try posting more regularly to see if consistency helps growth and how long it takes to really see an effect. I am frustrated that I have not been able to keep up with it but am trying to give myself some grace as life happens and I (as does my whole cohort) have a very busy schedule. Another goal of mine is to make more video content as I believe that reels have a greater reach and are more likely to convert viewers into followers. Overall, I hope to be able to put more time into my inquiry project!
