It’s My One Year Anniversary On Medium
Deep diving into the details of my first year on the platform.
I actually joined Medium on January 15th, 2022, but since I didn’t submit an article until the 31st, I’ve decided to hold off on posting this until now. This, to me, is my real one-year celebration.
I call the first 2 weeks research and development.
It amazes me how quickly life can change. One year ago I was feeling like I was spinning my wheels with not much direction. I felt like I was out here on the planet aimlessly floating around. I dabbled in all sorts of different ways to make money, but nothing made complete sense. At least, none of it made sense in comparison to how much Medium makes sense.
I originally heard about Medium from a YouTube video that I was watching. In it, the guy talked about his different streams of income as a nomad. Medium was the last item on his list, and he barely gave it any attention. But I heard him say that he earned “roughly one hundred dollars per month for his writing,” and that was enough to pique my interest.
I figured that if he could make one hundred dollars per month, then surely I could as well.
