The Next Rung Up the Ladder

The next rung up the ladder.png

As we enter a new week and within the week it transitions to a new a month, there is that boost of energy that I'm sensing and of course evident to all involved.

The climb up that ladder continues, as the HIVE community motivates me and I have to stay on my tippy toes to get myself in a position to move forward and up - EACH and EVERY DAY.

My weekend started with a bang and somewhat ended with a whimper as some of Tiffany and my plans didn't pan out, because she didn't feel well and is still feeling like crap and her youngest is home sick.

We had plans, made the attempt to follow them through; but she really didn't feel well and I kind of knew that it wasn't going to end on a high note.

Yesterday, became a rest day by default and we didn't workout or participate in the Run Club.

I was up this morning and kicking ass at today's workout and it was a real great way to start the week and I look forward to submitting my @actifit post later this afternoon.

I continue to always forge ahead despite the obstacles, because it's all I know how to do at this stage of my life. Wallowing about shit, doesn't make sense; so being warrior like mentally - is how I roll.

Now for the good news. So, I wasn't expecting much from my numbers; as the weekend will have less of an impact for me. Although, I am active one way or another on the HIVE blockchain; the weekends are far less than during the week.

I always make it where even if it's just one hour, that I make it as productive as possible - somehow/someway.

Of course, the beginning of the week is important to kind of see where I am at and what I need to do as a precursor for the rest of the week. So looking at my numbers is the no-brainer action.

But before, I get into those; looking at how things are looking across the board in the crypto universe - there is a welcome jump from Bitcoin to HIVE from Ethereum to LiteCoin and from Axie Infinity to Bitcoin Cash. All of which have gone up simultaneously.

and of course this is much more exciting to always see:

Now, I know by now and I've learned in this environment; that the ebb and flow of these numbers is part of the process. I've learned not to get too excited, but to still have the confidence and optimism that one day we will be at 10, 20 and everything we do have done to contribute will be beyond gratifying.

When it goes down again and it will, I will not be affected by it. I won't run away, I won't quit, I won't bash and I will remain committed to what HIVE is all about and where it's going.

That proverbial ladder I speak of, is not one I'm rushing up on. That was the old me.

Yes, I still get a bit bent out of shape when I'm on course and something gets in the way to push me back a bit; but not at the cost of throwing away all the effort, crypto, fiat and time put into that effort.

In all honesty, I came into this new week; with the expectation that my effort was minimal. I expected to see a step back instead of that step forward that I'm always striving for.

I can say this much. I am very happy with how the month of March went for me and I didn't have any high expectations going into it, but I did want to not only feel like I was kicking it up a notch; I wanted to see some proof that I've achieved something to keep moving me forward.

I am proud of myself, for seamlessly streamlining my efforts and although in some aspect; there has been some neglect in certain areas - there has been a positive impact on what I've put a lot of effort into lately.

The best part of all of it is that although, I took another step back from my email marketing efforts off-chain; that I'm still getting results from past efforts and the time I do give to it now, albeit limited; that I'm still getting some positive results.

So although, it's a jungle out there; we must continue to focus on our goals and climb that ladder a rung at a time and we'll get to where we want to with a few battle scars to show for it.

BY THE NUMBERS

The new campaign went well enough considering the pivot I made, not putting an emphasis on promoting the free ad packages; I was doing very well with.

I want work very hard in getting away from that type of lead generation, so want to bring in folks to ListNerds and subsequently HIVE with a more organic approach, but still need to use the tools in doing so.

So, the Lead Capture Page; I brought into the mix was slower to grow; but has generated 37 sign-ups - that went up about 10, what seemed overnight from the last post; I posted the progress of this campaign:

Shout out to The Crypto Mailer, where I got 10 sign-ups from mailing there this month.

My own effort is a huge part of the dips along the way in this campaign, but I am finding some pockets of time to drive the activity up throughout the weeks, although the last few days is obvious that it's way down:
