Balance is Key


If it’s anything I’ve learned during the last two weeks of all-nighters, Dolphin status, and sporadic nights out drinking and partying would be that the only way to find a balance in my life would be through preparation.

It’s counterintuitive, but the more discipline you have the freer you actually are. I’ve been a slave to my procrastination, which lead me to a constant state of catch up and recovering. Always being behind in school and having to recover from all-nighters sent me into a unsustainable spiral that has knocked me off course.

My goal this month is to continue to stay active on Steemit and build up my SP, catch up in school, and party a lot less!

Days where I don’t have a lot to write about and have way too much to study are always the worse, but I always believed that you don’t have to produce super high-quality content every day. I just don’t expect much from my little life updates haha.

Either way, this is an exciting time in my life because I’m working toward my dream career and accumulating Steem, which I believe will secure me some level of freedom in the future.

It’s all about keeping your head low in times like these and keep pushing forward. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel!

Who’s planning on buying some cheap Steem and powering up soon?!

Until next time, this has been a message from your friendly neighborhood #spiderblogger!

Sorry. I haven’t seen your posts on my feed lately! Didn’t know you had it quite tough trying to cope with many things at the same time!

Reducing the drinking party is a good idea certainly.
Yap! I did power up two weeks ago and I am thinking of exchanging my little amount of BCH into powering up too! Might just as well as it is sitting there doing nothing useful.

I can’t afford to buy cryptos with cash though. So, I gather what I earned from posting and change that into cryptos. I do save up to buy a few grams of gold some time. Gold is more liquid in my country.

Good luck with your life and study!
Health should come first, before the parties! Haha! I am such a spoil sport!

Cheers.

Yeah school has been killing me so I had to lay low for a bit, but thanks for stopping by!

And I felt I couldn’t buy with cash too, but I cut back on the little things like coffee and partying and bought a few steem here and there! Rn would be a perfect time to buy even if it’s just a few dollars!

Thanks for the reply!

I’ve been thinking about balance more lately as well! Given how passionate I have become about this ecosystem, I try to figure out more ways to spend more time on it but looking out for the other things that also matter in my life.

It’s so hard to not get sucked into crypto because we all generally believe a few of these projects can change the trajectory of our lives, but we also have to live and be happy in the head and now!

I found you thanks to one of @whatsup s posts.
Nice power up and good job! :)
I will support you with my little upvotes.
And I agree 100% with you that "the more discipline you have the freer you actually are."

Hey I appreciate this support! Yeah I am super happy I decided to power up even after the drop!
