My New Steeming Schedule - Because It's About Time I Had One

in #steemit7 years ago

You know what's worse than having nothing to write about? Having a long list of things you want to write, and having no idea where to start. So that's where I am at. With no shortage of work and tasks on the blockchain that do not include original writing, I find myself sitting on a pile of ideas and research, and publishing (just barely) my book chapters and not much more.

Taking a leaf from @didic 's book, I decided it's time I got my shit together and made something resembling a general posting schedule. I might not be able to stick to it (because chronic pain can be a bitch a lot), but I would like to at least have a plan. 

So here goes:

Something New Sunday

I would like to take one day a week to create an informative post to teach my readers something they may have not known. Science, tech, history - every week I'll pick a new topic.

Media Monday

Thoughts on television, news, media, social media, content and digital culture. I have lots of those.

Tasty Tuesday

Food! I love food. Don't you? Mmm.. Food. Since I've been wanting to go back to cooking, it would help if I made it into a regular Tuesday cook-and-post deal.

Wild Wednesday

Will it be a video? An audio chapter of @misstress like I've been promising? No idea! The topic of the Wednesday post is a mystery till I post it so expect surprises.

Techslut Thursday

A bit about me. Some more bloggy and personal stuff, stories, rants and embarrassing photos.

Funny Friday

I still remember how positively my Dik Diks post was received on Steemit. So while I don't consider myself funny, I think Friday is the best day to share humorous content I come across over the week. Expect cats and puns.

Smutty Saturday

Saturday is the day of @mistress , with a fresh new chapter and some delicious erotic fantasy.

That's my plan, and if you have any suggestions, requests or comments - hit that reply link.

P.S. Happy Women's Day to people of all genders.

I just hope you realize that I'm included in Tasty Tuesdays, right :P
We should totally document our kitchen adventures!

Yes yes yes!!! <3

What about days off? It's important to schedule those off as well.

Good luck and much success with the new schedule. I found that funnily, for me, the more scheduled I keep things, the less I do. So I try to keep my schedule loose.

I probably need to learn to be better about following a schedule, instead. Heh.

Days off? I'll have those when I am dead.

You'll have those when I take you on vacation.

Not scheduling days off is how you get there, yes.

Wait... weren't we supposed to have a day to do a thing? Or is that extra?

I'm looking forward to this

Wild Wednesday.
יום ד' כי דידי לא?

Thats impressive. I really should take a leaf from your book and get organized like that. My process is more like "ooh crap I forgot to post".... frantically looks content to post. Thankfully I've a few years work of shoots that I've done and I mix it in with new work too. Still I like the way you vary your content up too. I should probably try that more too.

I experiment and have fun. I am not a professional photographer like you. I write. In a bunch of styles and about a lot of topics. My issue is not the lack of ideas, but rather some order to them. Otherwise, I end up doing other steem-related work instead of doing what I said I would when I went steem full time - focus on my writing.

Ahh a schedule! I will be interested to see what you post every day. Sounds like you'll get some creative stuff up in here :)
Just make sure to post every day only if you enjoy doing it. Posting every day can be a pain in the ass if you find yourself short on time, or if you don't like what you're posting about.

This is awesome. I was just writing up something similar while eating lunch. Trying to get all your ideas together is one thing but sticking to a schedule this is a big task. I like where you are going with it though and hope that the pain does not bother you and you can get it accomplished.

I am curious how many hours a day have you put into steemit since you arrive here?

I see a lot of successful users put at least 8-10 hours a day. Is that your case as well?

Yes, pretty much. If I am awake, I am on the blockchain.

I hope it works!

I'll make sure to bug you on specific topics now :)

I think going from 1-2 posts a week to a post every day is too much. although I would love to see a post every day, I think you need to start with a lower amount of posts a week. Like 3-4 posts a week? and then slowly climb to 6-7 posts a week.

Just a suggestion.

She definitely has the ability to post daily, it's simply a matter of her prioritizing it over other things.

I know, she's too busy, that's why I'm saying to try and post 3-4 times a week, and then slowly add more

I love that you two love me so much and care about my wellbeing. I am a lucky one. <3

You are very brave to try to make a Steemit schedule. It just consumes all my time. Hahhah

First of all, happy women's day. Awesome schedule, and yes when we have lot of stuff to write and if we don't have schedule or proper idea from where we can start then it will be difficult because there is an particular reason, according me and that is, when we have multiple stuff in mind and go for one then we will not able to concentrate or not able to produce an effective post because your subconscious mind repeatedly thinks about multiple categories to write while you are writing on one topic, and if you can prepare weekly checklist or task list then you can channelise your thoughts in better way and your mind will concentrate on today's work and inturn you can produce better results. Thanks for sharing and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂

@techslut, at first,, how did you come up with that name? One person I respect in forex factory, call himself: male whore.. now you are 2nd person who made me chuckle with your names., brave choice..
secondly, I do enjoy your post, we should set our goals each day .it's easy to lose sight of goals, especially when we deal with so many distractions in our lives, daily goal setting allows us to stay on track. focus , and get things done

Innovation Turns Me On

:)

From success to success l am sure that you will success with anew schedule

It is a perfect schedule .. It is a nice idea now you are upto.
Above days you have selected ..i will be waiting for for all days especially sunday , tuesday ,thrusday ,friday & saturday.....

I badly needed such Plan ;) Can I use it too . haha

I hope to you more success with your new schedule

I love schedules like this 😊 I have my own Steemit schedule too. Although, it is far from being this creative!

Good .i like it

I like your naming of the days :D

Looking forward to hear more about the "mystery" on Wednesday :)

Happy women's day.
Yes to make a plan and follow is the key to success..We need also willingness and determination.

Awesome schedule. It sounds like a lot of fun ahead for us, readers :)

Nothing, the answer is nothing

completely based on ur first line only....

wow,.. but you should have some holidays as well. Otherwise i have learnt to also schedule my days well.

Great plan, looking forward to techslutty Saturdays 😋

This schedule is great. Why I haven't thought of that before? Thanks for giving me the idea @techslut! You're awesome!

Well I love the posting schedule but dont yout think Friday needs two schedule? Food joined to Friday as well, hahsha

Nice schedule! I am also having trouble writing new ideas these days. I think a schedule woluld work and I think I would try creating one . Thanks a lot 😊

I always found schedules make writing boring. It feels like working or something. I prefer to write whenever I feel like, for whatever I feel like. :D

I'm having the same problem and today it's my first day posting on steemit :|

What a good idea! And ambitious. Looking forward to cats and puns!

Looks like a great plan, waiting to see it in action!

This sounds like a wonderful idea. I know I tried implementing such a schedule with all of my businesses and things, and failed miserably. Mainly because chronic pain can be such a bitch, but for other reasons, too.
Let me know how it goes, maybe if I see that you're getting it done, I'll be motivated to try again... :-)

A great idea, waiting for a tasty Tuesday.
And yalla, surprise us on Wednesday

Having a long list of things you want to write, and having no idea where to start.

THIS IS ME. Of course, I ALSO have lists and pages of topics arranged by category as well, so I might just be a hopeless case! I keep thinking that really need to assign a topic for each day (which I'm slowly working up to with "Friday Favorites", "Weightloss Wednesdays" and "Caturday" posts from the perspective of our cat)

I LOVE "Smutty Saturday" I have really been wanting to delve into writing more erotica but I can't figure out where I wanted to put it. I had thought about "Spicy Sunday" or something... but yeah, you have a great list going here! I look forward to reading more of your posts!

Oh! And I have done a couple of "Therapy Thursdays" dealing with my own personal shit, but I'm not always up for that every week. I like the idea of just choosing a day for more personal/blog stuff.

accountability for the win! :)
