Setting Priorities
Where Does Medium Sit On My Priority List?
Everything that has happened since January of 2020 has completely derailed every single goal I created. And I’m okay with that. Why? It’s life. It happens. What matters though is what you make from it.
I sat outside today. The weather was nearly perfect and the last thing I wanted to do was be indoors. As I sat there, I thought about how content I was. But that led me to wonder, am I happy now?
Sure, my life is good. I have a wonderful family and love where we live. I’m happy with that. But what would make me truly happy?
I hate my job. I have for the past eight years. I have a goal to be able to quit by May 1st, 2024. It seems like it’s a million years away, but I know the time will fly by.
In order to do that, I need to put into place different streams of income. One of these was of course Medium.
Everything changes, and I understand that. I went from making a couple hundred dollars a month here, to struggling to make $12. Now, with the new changes, I’m on my way to make approximately $6 this month.
So, I have to ask myself, is it worth it? Is Medium high up on my priority list, or should I shuffle it on down to the bottom.
