That's a huge improvement! Definitely worth being proud of, Alec. It seems to me that you're at least still taking some pride in the productivity side of it, too. I hope you are at least, because that's some pretty amazing growth within just a month lol. The earnings might feel a bit more enticing to look at, but remember that what's exciting about them is that you're getting paid money to do something you love! I wouldn't totally separate the two.

I can't overstate how awesome it is to have a friend on this Medium journey, too! I remember the first meal I bought through Medium. It was one of the most blissful cheesesteaks of my life lol. Looking forward to seeing more growth in the months ahead!
