Hi friends,
I’m struggling.
I’m struggling to keep up writing and publishing my daily atomic essays.
I’m 66 days into this streak, and I really really really don’t want to break it.
Weirdly that would feel like I’ve failed. Even though the feedback I’m getting is clearly telling me that I’m doing good.
So, I’m toying with the idea to write and publish only every other day. That would free up time to distribute my writing beyond Twitter (right now, that’s the only place where I post).
Because what’s the point of writing if not enough people get the chance to read it.
What do you think? Should I break my streak?
