Day 100,
Well beyond the half-way mark (85 days), so it's all about building momentum from here.
That cloud of nihilism seems to have passed. I shook off the haze about a month ago when I agreed to doing two language challenges on a language reading/learning app (LingQ) for 90 days; both in Spanish and German.
Subliminal-wise, I've missed a couple of days in the last two cycles, so I did flex the 5 on 5 off cycle a LITTLE.
Today, I was hit with some enthusiasm about doing freelancing work, but I'm suddenly reminded of all of the BS related to my run in 2019; I ran out of gas to do it within 3 months, but I must have made about 3,000 USD from it.
I've developed a lot more confidence since then, and have developed much more skill in high-value areas, but it comes down to presenting that to any potential prospects.
I will refuse low-ball offers because those guys are not only the penny-pinchers, but they also want to revise over and over again.
I also wonder how AI has affected the pricing and volume of deliveries, and how competitive certain areas are.
Not sure I will dive in just yet, but I have some ideas.
I am 50,000 words into a first draft for a new book; started that on April 10th. Have built up momentum this past week. This book might reach 100,000 words on draft 1. I know that draft 2 will involve a lot of cutting, hopefully to something better suited to my target audience (young men). Padded word counts on draft 1 are the name of the game, since you are purging all of your ideas from your head, good or bad.
At least, getting the first draft done, then I might consider money-making. Or, it's a mad rush to complete the book.
Future plans: Latest version of Ultra Success; might continue until AM7 comes out. Or, I'll do a sex/woman related one instead of AM7 if it hasn't released yet, since I've put that aspect of life on the backburner for about 9 months.
