I like your visualization process! and that you tie different themes for different days. yesterday I was just reflecting how i spent the day focused on health (information, practical steps, doctor's appt, etc) and how good it would be to make that a wednesday ritual. My money days are all over the place, but would probably benefit to have a day dedicated to it. Unrelated, but just finished reading song of achilles and circe, so my head was more in the state of greek gods/goddesses haha

Circe is a goddess I started working with a few years ago! I have the paperback, Kindle version, and Audible version of that book, too lol She's my gardening goddess, and my hermit goddess. I once created a gardening guide inspired by her that I put on Gumroad so long ago I usually forget about it. My days are loosely based on the Planetary Days of Western Astrology more for convenience than any particular affinity for astrology. Single words for flexibility. Sunday is Structure Monday is Reflection Tuesday is Momentum Wednesday is Connection Thursday is Expansion Friday is Aesthetic Saturday is Slow Been using that system for years now, and it makes figuring out what to do when quite a bit easier. Sunday is planning day. Wednesday's I schedule phone calls that will strain me because it's associated with Mercury and I've got it in with him as well 😆

ahh i'm not surprised you resonate with her so strongly! I didn't know much about her history aside from that she was a part of the Odyssey. the singular word descriptions are powerful! I think people underestimate what it means to use few words to describe deep meaning. That sounds like a great array :) I'm still working on mine. Been trying to focus on templating projects a bit better so that I can dedicate days of the week to an element of the overarching system without losing the consistency of the projects themselves. Current project is converting my newsletter --> podcast --> short videos for yt

I use single words for my Vows as well. Very impactful, but also very flexible. I do single words on a set of time periods: Year + Seasonal Vow + Month + Week + Day The vows I revisit yearly, sometimes changing one or two as life evolves. Year and Month are chosen - or sometimes thrust on me - just prior to the next time period.. Giving out monthly words is one of my regular "tippable" posts on Facebook because people love them so much. The weekly words are four words on a rotation that evolved from my dissatisfaction with capitalistic co-option of spiritual teachings in the form of "law of attraction" and similar thinking. Then, of course, the daily words. I call it my Algorithm for Personal Development. Gives me focus without rigidity, which allows me to flow towards my goals.

i like that a lot! cool you've established such a great algorithm for yourself that can also inspire/provide structure for others. it's interesting how much constraint can actually boost creativity by producing scaffolding that speed up the actions that would otherwise detract from deep focus/life building when you say tippable post, do you mean it's specifically intended to try and get tips? or it so happens that is when people typically tip you?

Specifically intended to give followers a chance to tip me. My main platform is Facebook, and the algorithm there likes to hide mention of posts asking for money. So I evolved a new strategy. I have two Service Days a week, Tuesday and Thursday, that are simple, "Would you like to be included in my intentions?" posts, donations welcome but not mandatory, etc. My followers *expect* them, so they look for them. I also do a monthly Word Day, and offer for those that if they tip $25+, I'll send them a guided journal based on their word. I have to make less of those as I go, cuz a lot of words get shuffled around between people monthly. Then I periodically do a Mad Mystic. Get super stoned, and let people ask me anything. I just let the answer float through my head to my fingers, hit enter, and move to the next. But it's so popular, I haven't had to worry about a weed budget in years. Those posts gets high engagement, which then boosts my *other* posts in the algorithm and stretches my reach further.

super interesting! Thanks for sharing :) will have to think on it more. I've been working on my own guided journal series so that's really cool how you were able to selectively monetize via tips and yeah that's key, the few posts that do a massive boost to the overall network of your audience
