note is great. But, I'm moving it back to 3rd place. | A story about priorities to protect work and family

If you're thinking about note while at work, it might be a danger signal...

I want to fix that article a little more...💦

Before I knew it

I'm thinking about note even while at work...

Even when my child talks to me,
am I being absent-minded😂?

Actually, this

was a sign that my way of engaging with note
had drifted away from its original purpose
⚠️

Is it just me? How about everyone else??

✅ The original purpose for which I started note | Looking back at my starting point as a side hustle

✔️ The initial motivation was simply to increase my "side hustle pillars"

The reason I started note was

as one of my side hustles.

How about everyone else😊?

That was all it was.

While sharing the realities of parenting and married life,
I wanted to increase my income pillars even just a little.

It was a simple motivation.

✔️ The fun took over, and before I knew it, it became an "interaction-focused blog"

But now...

・Writing articles is fun

・Interacting through comments is fun

・Interacting with other creators is fun

Is the interaction more fun, and are you running out of time??

I have no complaints.
Actually, it's the best!!🔥

However...

To have fun, you need time.

Where that time
is coming from

is something you really need to think about...

You want more time, don't you?

✅ The downside of note being 'too fun' | Are you cutting into work and family time?

✔️ The priority order that 'work, family, and note' should have

① Work (The pillar of income, this is the top priority)

② Time with children

③ note (One of my side hustles)

But recently, reality has become like this.

✔️ Thinking about note while at work is a warning sign

Thinking about note while at work. Even when my children talk to me,

the article is in the back of my mind.

The fact that I'm thinking about it even a little bit means...

I am cutting into work and children's time for the sake of note🥲

This is just my personal opinion. Not everyone's 👍

Because it's fun,
it's hard to stop, isn't it? 😂

Are you all able to maintain a good balance??

✅ Conclusion | The 'fun' of note and its 'original purpose' are different things

✔️ If the priority order collapses, note as a side hustle becomes counterproductive

Something being fun and
something being in line with your purpose are different

They are not equal.

✔️ The question to return to when in doubt: "Am I acting according to my priorities right now?"

It's a good thing
that I've started enjoying note. But, if I get carried away by the fun and

my original priorities fall apart, it defeats the whole purpose.

If I started this as a side job,
protecting my work hours is the top priority!!


✅ How I will engage with note from now on | My determination to value my main job and personal life

"Am I acting according to the priorities I set at the beginning?"

Rather than nights when I can't write articles,
days when I'm thinking about note while at work are more dangerous 😂

Since realizing that,
I have decided to seriously rethink my time allocation.

✔️ As a site manager, prioritize time with young subordinates and contractors

I am currently in the position of a site manager.
(I am truly grateful for this 🫡)

From April, an 18-year-old newcomer will also be joining us.

・I want to deepen my connection with young subordinates

・I want to focus properly on training the newcomer

・I want to be more careful in my relationships with contractors

Time with work colleagues is
much more important than note notifications!! 🔥
(I'm happy about the notifications, and of course, note is important too 😍)

✔️ Close note at night and secure time to talk slowly as a couple

After putting the kids to sleep, I would open note.

But there are things more important than that.

Time to talk slowly as a couple.

I honestly think I have been spending too much of that time
after the kids are asleep on note 🥲

I will keep my nighttime time on note
to a minimum.

Take off your shoes before you go to sleep, okay🤭?

✅ Updates to keep enjoying my favorite place, "note," for a long time

✔️ Changing my writing style to enjoy interacting comfortably in my spare time

I'll be honest.

note is incredibly fun😊

Basically, this is what I wanted to say🫡

The joy of writing articles,
the happiness of having them read,
and the interaction with creators

I think it's all the best place to be🌿

I'm not quitting my activities.

It's just that,the time I spend here will decrease a little.

While finding spare time,
I want to continue writing and interacting
as much as I can!!

I might show my face a little less often, but
I look forward to your continued support
😊

Basically, this is what I wanted to say🫡
I'll keep running things at my own pace.

✅ Summary | Protecting work and family is the secret to enjoying note for a long time

When you get stuck, when you get lost, go back to the basics!!

・The reason I started note was as "one of my side jobs"

・It's good that it's become fun, but I won't change my priorities

・Value interactions with work, subordinates, and vendors

・Make time with my spouse the top priority at night

・Continue enjoying note in my spare time

To enjoy note
for a long time,

I will make protecting work and family
my top priority🌿

That is my starting point.

If you feel like you can relate...
I would be very happy if you followed me✨
