The 7-day exercise

I use to plan a year’s worth of content

The end of my first four decades on this planet passed this week.

Around this time last year, I had been toying with the idea of improving my writing.

  • My gaming YouTube channel of over three years was coming to a head as I wrapped up my last video that completed my strategy guide for an entire game.
  • I was adjusting to a new home and the rhythm of school life for my oldest as well as reliving the joys of caring for a one-year-old.
  • I was reflecting on what it meant to settle down so that both of my children would have stability in a nice community.

I also had no plan for the next year.

The only thing I had was an idea…

A vision.

A dream.

I decided to commit to one year of attempting a writing endeavor like so many other content creators who have appeared on the stage this past year.

I’m glad I did.

Now that the first year is coming to an end, I’m taking 7 days (not in a row and a story for another time) to plan out the next year.
