Last Month, my journey in this platform is one of my most "struggle" month so far. Struggle not only because I have been so busy with tasks related to work, family, church, personal but I personally struggled on the issues here in read. I became distracted, anxious to the point that I am demotivated to write. Yes, I am easily affected with what is going on with my community, with my surroundings. But despite that, I still pushed myself to write as time permits, and let me share my humble accomplishments in July.
Articles Written
Even with the struggles I had, I managed to write 16 articles for the month of July. Most of them are about my "hilig" and my collections. My top 5 articles in terms of upvotes are:
.6 BCH earned in June through Writing and Short posts - $31.61
Joining the This or That Challenge - $16.57
Spending time together with nature - $ 13.31
Story of my Childhood days : When I was a kid challenge - $12.67
Collaboration
I don't have a collaboration article for this month but I have participated in some challenges with other writers in read and I enjoyed participating on those writing challenges. The articles are:
Subscribers and Sponsorships
For this month I have additional 18 subscribers, from 100 last month it's now 118. And I have an active of 10 sponsors. I also continue my quest of giving tips to all the people who are commenting on my articles as my way of thanks for the support and as a reward for the ideas they have shared for the said article.
BCH Earnings in JULY
For the month of July, despite the distractions I was able to earn BCH. In read for all my articles I earned $198.19, including sponsorship payments and less upvotes given to others, I had a total of .37012869 in BCH. I added the earnings from noise as well - .07350697. The Total BCH earnings for July is .44363566, if converted to dollars in current rate it is approximately $240.00 or 12,000.00 in Peso.
These earnings are divided for my Expenses 50%, Savings 20%, Wants 20% and Tithes 10%.
1 BCH UPDATE
If I am going to add all of my earnings, I have already reached the 1BCH. From the Time I track my BCH earnings which was in May. But, I just gave a portion for savings or HODL because I have also expenses to pay, (payables are real).
For my 1BCH Goal, here's the update.
I know I am still far way to go but with consistency and determination, I will be there soon.
My Goals in August
I will add in this article my goals for this month. They say, if you have a goal, you will do more for its achievement. So for this month, my goals are the following:
Write at least 20 articles.
Upvote all comments to my articles.
Read and comment to 5 articles each day.
Increase my visibility by sponsoring other writers.
Participate more in different writing prompts and challenges.
Increase BCH Savings to 40%. I can do this if I omit my wants. So I hope I would not be tempted with all those live selling and pasabuys.
So let's see at the end of the month, if I can check all my goals.
Closing thoughts
There are times that we face distractions in life or in our goals but let's not allow it to pull us down but we should lift our self up and do better each day. This platform is very helpful not only for me but to all of us. We should keep the positivity and good communication. Let us remember always to always choose compassion and kindness in every situation. For all my accomplishments in July I am thankful to the Lord.
