Don't just guess. Gauge.


Howdy Reader!

With content creation, consistency is so important.

It's best treated like a marathon.

Going all-out = burnout

Most of my efforts until very recently have been a series of 120% sprints.

Pound out things late at night, go, go, go ...

... and then collapse, exhausted.

Recover, then go all-out again.

I did it a bit again with my Threads posts.

I set up auto-schedule slots in Publer to fill in a day's posts.

I chose ten posts per day, and ran with it.

It lasted a couple of days, and then I missed.

Ten posts a day was a 120% sprint.

I guessed, and it was too much.

But that's all right. I'm gauging.

Gauging isn't perfect. It's an estimate.

And my estimate of how much I could keep up with right now was high.

So I cut it in half. I'll try again and see if this is more workable.

If not, I'll cut again.

I'll keep gauging until I get it right.

Until I'm consistent.

Let's grow and be productive together!

Howdy Reader! Organization isn't my strong suit. As music director of our church, I'm responsible for getting the music schedule ready for each service. For months, the schedule would come out only a week in advance. Not much opportunity for others to plan. So our pastor brought someone else in to help, and now the schedule is filled out through the rest of the month. But what if you don't have help? In an organization, a corporation, whatever, there are team members. But what if it's just...

Howdy Reader! One of the creators I follow on Threads said that he has his Threads posts scheduled through October. Twenty-five posts a day for several weeks. That's a nice buffer! That puts him in the driver's seat and takes a lot of stress away. Something to aspire to!
