Facing Reality with STEEM Weekend Freewrite – October 19 2019 - Single Prompt Option – Awakening
I’m just past the middle of the second week of the Wind Challenge by @metametheus. You can find about how it works here:
The basic idea is to make one simple change to improve your life and my change is:
- Do better with time management and goal setting.
That may seem like two changes, but it is actually more than that. I have three blogs on STEEM and lots of action required to keep all my balls in the air.
I’m writing this progress report at 7 am Sunday before leaving for church and have both good and not-so-good results to report.
The best of the best!
The absolute WORST failing I have been having for months is the failure to post regular @tasteem reviews with my fitinfunfood blog. I eat out and have the photos, but do not publish the reviews. These review posts give me some of the best upvotes I get on STEEM, and so publishing them should be a top priority.
I have already written a post this week giving a lot of details of how I create these restaurant reviews. They are not easy for me. I procrastinate, and then they never get done at all.
My challenge to myself to get three (+) @tasteem restaurant reviews posted this week.
Tada!!! I have just now posted my third review of the week:
AND!
I have the photos ready that fit on the theme for the next upcoming contest that will open for entries in a few hours. So I can do this post tomorrow and then I will have published four reviews this week. I beat the goal I was almost afraid to set!!!
The worst of the worst!
I live off this money from STEEM. My rent is due; and it is late. I do not have the money to pay it yet. This is at least the 4th month in a row it will be late.
The bad news is the poor STEEM price. The good news is that I get better votes to my posts now under NewSTEEM. All I need to do is post my 35+ posts each week, and I should be fine. Not rich. But at least able to survive.
So what happened?
I got distracted and have not posted enough. Instead of getting posts out, I have been curating for @tipu. Yes, this is a good thing to do. Yes, I have helped many other people this week. Yes, I will keep going with this new and exciting project.
But seriously @fitinfun, do first things FIRST!
Now I am still $30 usd short of my rent, and if I even get that, I will not have money for food until next week when my wifi needs to be paid. And the next week when I need to pay to get to Bangkok for my Visa Trip (the coincides with STEEMFest dates.)
Good grief!
I should change my change to:
- Make enough money so you can eat!
Like I tell myself time after time when times are tough.
Trust in God and just keep trying. Don’t give up. Don’t be discouraged. You have made it this far and will succeed.

My progress post today is for the #freewrite weekend single prompt challenge by @mariannewest with the prompt word of “awakening.”
Freewrite is a great way to post on steemit when you do not think you have the time, or talent, or anything to say. It’s a great way to start regular posting on steem. I know you can do this too! Here is Marianne’s freewrite prompt post for today. Give it a try and surprise yourself.

Doing SOOOO amazingly well. You've really taken this idea and made it work for you... and continued to do so!!!
It's interesting, is it not, how making one tiny little change leads on to the realisation of the next tiny change, and so on and so forth...!?
I can't wait to see what happens next week.
My question for you is: what's the thing stopping you?
😊🙏🏽☯️
I'm am so glad I quickly saw this question before running out the door, today, @metametheus. I will have some deep thoughts in my next post.
Can you believe the sermon at my church today talked about the difference small changes can make?! I need a nap and then will be back at it!
@tipu curator
wow...this is amazing. I always thought of a way to make enough with STEEM. How do you convert to cash from SP?
I can trade it locally with other STEEMers who live in Malaysia, and get the cash directly, or use @blocktrades to send it to an exchange and then to my bank, @nazirullsafry. No fees the first way, and many fees the second way :)
Thank you @fitinfun! I guess I do the first one then, which my Malaysian mates have been doing. I hate charges haha :)
All right @fitinfun! Keep going and get those reviews on out -- YOU CAN DO THIS!
