👀 What do you do when you get a hyperfixation, and suddenly all you do is refresh Contra, check notifications, and obsess over engagement on your Makeathon submission? Anyone else like this? 😅😅😅
Honestly, you might have noticed I’ve been a bit quiet with my growth updates lately — and that’s because for the past 2 weeks I was fully locked in on the #ConfigMakeathon 🥵
(I’ll also attach a screen recording in this post showing how to use the Skill Matrix for anyone who’s interested)
But today I’m back with a quick update to distract myself a little

💎 I made it into the Top 5 creators on Contra
💎 Discovery score grew by 4 points — now it’s 127
💎 Ben Huffman followed me — which honestly feels like a huge milestone for me, especially since I’ve been on Contra for less than 2 months

🐐 + 💬 = ❤️
As someone who's capable of opening the same analytics page 37 times a day, I refuse to judge 😄
What I find interesting is how quickly you've grown in less than two months. Was there a moment when you noticed a clear shift in traction, or did it feel more like a slow accumulation of small wins?
🤯 I honestly can’t believe this…
I got an email saying that my project has been ✨ 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮 ✨
When I submitted my digital journal to the Makeathon, I just hoped a few people would find it useful. I never expected this amount of support, feedback, comments, shares, and kind messages 💙
Seeing people try the journal, share their thoughts, and tell me it resonates with them has already made this experience incredibly rewarding.
Thank you to everyone who took a moment to support the project. Every like, comment, and share helped make this happen.

And if this journal helps even one person slow down, reconnect with themselves, and feel a little better, I’ll consider it a success ✨
Thank you. Seriously. This means a lot. 💙
Congrats🎉
Day 3 of the challenge 💙
One thing I’m already noticing: journaling makes me pay more attention to the little moments.
Today it was fresh haircuts, quality time together, and another evening of It Takes Two.
Sometimes happiness is much simpler than we think. 🌿
