Have you ever thought that your blog might suddenly have become too structured?
Have you ever felt that you have lost spontaneity in blogging? Have you created too many "compartments" to fit your content into and then felt restricted by that?
I think it happens to a lot of us over a period of time. I have tried my best to avoid over-categorization on my blog, but it happens almost subconsciously and it can become a mental trap. So rather than writing spontaneously, you end up writing content to fit into what you think already defines your blog.
Sure, a lot of people think that being focussed is a good thing. It is, but at the cost of creativity and originality. Too much focus on one particular topic has never appealed to me (well, I never cared about making money online, so sue me. 
). A personal blog should have personality as well as spontaneity. Sometimes I think bloggers end up turning over-categorizing their content and creating regular features which they feel compelled to stick to even if they have nothing more to say on those topics.
And most of all, I think sticking to a rigid blogging schedule is the best way to become uninspired and dull. If you have nothing to share with your readers, don't share nothing.
