Checking my October list

Time flies so fast and October already ends. Today is the first of November. Few days more and Christmas will be coming. It feels like it was just yesterday that I welcome October with a lot of positivity together with the list of goals that I wanted to achieve. Setting the October for a challenging month, I write some goals that will help me guide as I journey the month.

Let's check the goals that I have listed if I achieve them.

What are those listed goals?

I divided my goals into three aspects, first is for myself, second is for read.cash and third is for noise.cash. I divided this in order for it to be more specific and if personal aspect would fail others would not be affected.

For myself

Exercise

The goal of having my exercise for the month of October did not last long. Yes, I did start it and it last for three consecutive days but I failed to maintain it and do it for the whole month. The hectic schedule of having my tuitorial session is one of the reason and so as my laziness added up the whole package of not making the goal came into reality.

It's difficult, really difficult to become consistent about it. As they all say consistency is the key that even small steps if consistent make a huge difference. Whenever my mind is telling me to do it there's this side of me who says listen to my body, my very lazy body. And now, I am having a little regret about it. But still positive that November is a new month a new chance to prove that I could still do it. So, I guess I will push the goal through.

Prayer time

I still failed to have my prayer time. Though I do pray before I sleep but the prayer time that I wanted is the Bible reading and rosary. I don't know what really the problem that hinders me to start the goal. Is it the time? Or the heart to do the routine? I believe that if I really want something, I could find ways and give time but I don't want to do this thing half heartedly. Just because I have goals that I am aiming. I wanted it to be coming deep within me. Thus, I couldn't dare to start. Maybe I should find more reason for me to do this something that is rooted deep inside of me. I know I could do it. I did before I believe I could now. Just giving sometime for myself. I will soon. I will not give up and stop trying this goal. I hope and pray it will be achieved soon.

5 am rule

This is the hardest from all the listed goals maybe because I sleep late as well and I don't want to make my sleeping hours lacking. Sometimes even if I could wake up I still choose to go back to sleep just to complete my 7-8 hours of sleep. Health is wealth therefore I wouldn't risk it. Well, the first reason why I decided to add waking up early on my list is because of exercise even though I know to myself I am not really a morning person. I just want some changes and see if I could do it. But nah! Nevermind hehe. Though I want to still push this through and try if I could really achieve it but it should be necessary for me to follow the 9 pm rule as well. For me to have complete sleep.

9 pm rule

Together with the failed 5 am rule this 9 pm rule actually is the first reason of not achieving the rest. I could never sleep at 9 pm. The earliest bed time that I had was 10 pm. And the most late is 12 am. Therefore, I couldn't meet other listed goals due to this failure. I am not regretful though because most of it is fruitful. It's not all wasted. Though some spend on over thinking but it's quite normal for me.

I do really love to meet this goal that's why I listed it. I know I could, it just I never tried. Or just maybe I choose not to.

For read.cash

$125

For this goal I could proudly say I achieve more than what I have listed. It's not just $125 that I earn but I earn around $150 which I am so happy about. It's so much blessings to me. I am happy that I earn of almost the basic salary of an employee for this side-hassle of writing that I came to love and become part of me already. I received minimum of $2 per day and $4 maximum. It's just so odd if it will reach $5 or $6 per day. And whenever it reach that amount I am the happiest. I am still happy how much I earn the important thing to me is there is someone always supporting me and reading my articles. Much more that it encourage me to never stop writing everyday. Earning or not. But it makes me feel complete and happy if rusty visit and someone upvoted my work. It adds up excitement and boast my confident though.

10 sponsee

I did not reach the goal listed because I couldn't explore new writers in the platform. Though I do have list now I just went through some observations because the previous writers that I gave support stop writing and it made me regret a bit. So, for now I know soon I would give them my support as a sponsor but for the previous month i didn't reach 10 sponsee. I do have few people added on the list maybe 2 or 3. Well, not bad.

10 articles per day

I did achieve this goal on some days but not everyday. For some important reasons that I could see valid. But still I would like to see it as an achieve goal because I did. It's not difficult it's just need free time to give it to read the story by heart and support them through the comment box. Some days I could read, other days I reach more than 10 articles.

For noise.cash

$1/day

This one is I don't know if an achieve goal because it's seldom happen to me in noise.cash. I achieve it in the first few days through posting and interacting but on other days that I am busy I couldn't even post anything there. So, other days I could have $1 every other day. Well, I am contented about it though.

500 sub

This one is truly an achieve goal. I even had more than 500 subscribers now in noise.cash. It is now almost 600 and I am so happy about it. I am 2 months in noise.cash last October 28 and I couldn't imagine to have such a huge people journeying with me. My heart leps for so much joy. Thank you so much for the people who is my friend here and there in noise.cash. By the way my account name in noise.cash is MG21. If you want to visit me there feel free to do so.

2-3 hrs./day

I actually achieve this goal too. I can't just seem to be consistent up until the end of the month due to my busy schedule but I am happy that I am still active and still interact with my friends there. Happy that my account is not spam unlike my previous account. I don't know what happened really but I know and accepted my lapses. Because of that I became cautious handling things and become more responsible and careful. I couldn't afford to lose it my account again.

Conclusion

Out of 10 goals listed my score is 3 over 10. I am not sad about it nor regretful. I want to continue having them for this month. Trying my best to achieve the unachieved ones and continue achieving the already achieved. I am happy to have this listed goals as a guide for the previous month. To challenge myself and see myself doing my best. And I would love to continue doing my best for this month. Especially to the goals listed for myself. I want to achieve them for this month. It's not to pressure myself or whatever but to learned more about my capacities and capabilities. I know I could do it. Just lacking some push and motivation to do so.

To have goals in is not to pressure yourself and regret after knowing you did not achieve them all. Goals are just a guide. And this guide is not to harm you but to just challenge yourself.

Never stop having goals.

That would be all for today everyone. I now officially close the month of October and face the November with the same goals and having the same positive energy with me. God bless us to this new month. May he shower us with his loving grace and mercy.

Happy all saints day everyone one and happy Halloween.
