2024 Content Challenge Week 34:

✅✅✅✅✅✅✅

23 straight weeks of daily content production.

💪💪💪

That puts me two weeks away from the six month mark.

Considering how well I’m set up, that’s pretty much inevitable.

With each passing day, I get more confident about my ability to set a new all-time record.

Exciting is an understatement.

🤩🤩🤩

What Got Done?

This week was a bit of a change up.

I reached something like a stopping point with my Candlestick Patterns posts.  That’s not quite the best description, as I’m probably only like half-way through them and I am likely to put out five more next week.  However, I finally knocked out another of my “full stack” posts (aka. Trading Guides) and got through quite a bit of optimization.

Considering how the rankings are beginning to pile up, I’m probably going to start working on Playing Market‘s digital footprint next.

As things stand, I’m beyond hyped for September and then quarter four afterwards.

Considering how well my Habits reset is going, the end of this year looks like it is going to go down as one of my best periods in years (if not ever).

Last Week Was the Week That…

My favorite diversions came back in full force.

Two new seasons started:

  1. Chelsea’s
  2. RISK

The Blues traded 2–0s with Man City and Servette.

I got a couple of solid wins to start season 19 strong.

Despite this, I was less distracted than I have been in weeks.  I don’t think I’ve ever gotten bored with wasting time as many times as I did this week.  Almost every time I looked at social media or YouTube, it just felt like tedium.  I’d rather write or work in my garden.  And that’s a great feeling.

Part of that probably came from my near-sobriety.  I’m weed-free and very close to teetotalerism once again.  Even my tobacco consumption fell off the map unexpectedly.

😍😍😍

Major sigh of relief there.  Give me another week or two and I’ll be close to my absolute best, especially if my shoulder finishes healing.

Elsewhere, RFK Jr. endorsed Trump—not that I care all that much.  Yet it is a marker somewhat worth remembering.

I think one or two other notable things happened in the culture as well… but I don’t care enough to try to remember.  I’d rather publish this post and get back to work.

😁😁😁

Content Streak

After last week:

My weekly content streak now is up to 168 days (begun Week 10), which is the longest streak of my 2024 Content Challenge so far.

In 2023, my longest streak was 62 days, from Week 8 to Week 16.  My longest streak ever was during my 2022 Content Challenge, snapped at 217 days in a row in Week 24.  My best during 2021’s Content Challenge was 67 days, from Week 14 to Week 23.  And my best in 2020 was 157 days in a row, which ended in Week 21.

The march toward a full 365 continues.  📈
