My May 2024 Medium Income — Report
Seeing things for what they are
May has been a month of constant searching.
After only 7 months in Munich, my GF and I decided to move back to Stuttgart to prioritize family and friends there.
Despite our hopes for living in a bigger and greener city, we returned every second weekend to see friends and family.
That made us search for a flat.
My GF is about to finish her studies, which makes her look for a job. I look for my form. After being in Asia for six weeks, I searched for ways to get my business back up and running and more time to write here, too.
Stats don’t lie.
I let you (and myself) down
After April being the best month I ever had on Medium, I fell back into old negative patterns in May.
I didn’t reach my goal of 30 minutes of engagement daily. While I published my declared 35 stories, I wasn’t consistent enough to publish daily.
I won’t lie: my focus was off.
Having too many other things on my head, including viewings, finding new furniture, and getting back into client work, I put too little focus on Medium.
