And there goes March. Gosh, time flies by, doesn’t it?

Despite work not going so great, this month has been extremely positive as a whole, experiencing a lot along the way.

I have to start by saying how thankful I am for the many people I saw on YouTube’s motivational videos a few months back. They allowed me to finally give proper writing a go and this is slowly but surely changing my outlook on life.

Now, how have we done this month?

1. Positive aspects

I finally succeeded in getting a proper rhythm. I have been able to schedule articles more and more.

While still a bit stressed I’ll get caught up due to spending 2 or 3 days on 1 article many times, it has been compensated with a few days during which I wrote 2 or 3 entire ones.

Having the peace of mind of waking up knowing my article is already written allows me to think more about the content I want to put out and thus bring more quality into the world. Obviously, my quality still has ways to go but I am slowly learning to improve.

In regards to quality, I have started to analyze more in-depth my articles. I have succeeded in lowering greatly the number of times I use “that” and am beginning to compile a list of words/expressions
