💬 Sunday Reflections #6 (success)
Inc. a serendipitous milestone + introducing 'My week well spent in 5'
Happy Sunday friends. How are you?
Last minute update…
I have just learnt that I’ve gained the white tick against my profile which Substack tells me means I’m now officially a “Substack bestseller”. What a way to close the week.
Surpassing 100 paid subscribers (what gets you the tick) seems a serendipitous turn of events, considering the topics of the posts this week.
Thursday’s was The 5 life mantras responsible for my success. Which has had *a lot* of interest. And it should; I attribute much of the success I claim today to living according to these wisdoms.
And today’s reflections topic is exactly that, “success”. Which feels like a very loaded word... More on that further down.
I am so very delighted with this bestseller news (Substack even sent me a badge) - THANK YOU to all the paid subscribers here who have made this so in the short 5 weeks of A Day Well Spent’s existence.
Here are some of the touching things you lovely readers say about my writing - I can’t tell you how much reading these mean to me:
To express my gratitude, I'll be writing a piece sharing tips and the things I've learnt getting to 100 paid subs. Hopefully others will find it useful and / or interesting.
(And also acknowledge that tick may appear and disappear for a while until I am comfortably through the 100 paid subscribers gate.
