I decided to do a Helium contest to see if I could win. I started late (three days late on a six day contest), but was still obsessed with winning. I didn't post in any blogs yesterday (and didn't get any traffic to any of my blogs or our website yesterday). I worked hard getting all of these articles written and for awhile I was second and then third and then second. I was going crazy, feeling terrible because I couldn't make it. I realized I was stressing myself out in some very extreme ways. Over something I can't control (you are given points or points are taken away by peer votes, nothing one can control, one can only do their best). My husband was like, well you started late, and are doing well, what happens if you do another one next week and kick butt, having the whole week to do it. Not sure if it will work out that way, right now I am in sixth place. But I decided to step aside, work on the blogs that I think are important, maybe get a page done on the website depending on how easy the baby makes it to write this afternoon, and remember what is important.
Our website, our blogs, then Helium, and ultimately the goal would be to make it to total freedom so that neither of us have to work our "serve the man" job.
