My Actifit Report Card and Update: January 10 2020

Hi Everyone,

I have had a pretty busy week. I managed three big days count wise and I have put up 2 posts that involved quite a lot of work.

Let's begin with counts. I notched up over 10,000 on both Thursday and Friday and was close to 10,000 on Wednesday. Dog walks helped me out on Wednesday. Whereas Thursday and Friday, I needed to run around buying a few things. Friday was the regular shopping day, so no surprise about the high count. Thursday I needed to get a new vegetable steamer. The older one lost its ability to create steam. That was not a big deal as I went down to the local shopping centre where they have a good choice of kitchen appliances. Currys had a steamer and Argos had a choice of a few. I went with Argos as they have the same brand as my old one. I could make use of the steam containers on the old one with the new. The price was very affordable as well. It put me back less than £17.

The last few days has enabled me to be active as I went about doing tasks I needed to do anyway. Being active should be a lifestyle rather than an effort.

Content Update

I have pumped out 2 new posts since my previous report. These posts were more time consuming than they appear. I spent more than half the time creating diagrams.

In my first post of the week, I explored the political spectrum. I adopted an approach that utilised three scales. I considered collectivism and individualism, freedom and order, and globalism and nationalism. I then converted a 3D cube model into a 2D octagon model. I choose to make this conversion as posts limit us to just 2 dimensions.

The main crux of the post was that the political spectrum is very broad and should not be limited to left-right arguments. The post is also intended to help people discover how their own political views align with different political parties.

My second post commenced my 'solutions' series. In this post, I described my 'prevent', 'solve', or 'manage' approach. This approach was explained using various Venn diagrams. This is an important first post in the series as I will be using it as a reference to when I discuss particular topics such as health, education, or crime.

Reputation 68

I have reached reputation 68 on Steem. This may not be a huge milestone but it means I am closing in on reputation 70, which is a pretty big milestone. I aim to reach reputation 70 before my 3 year anniversary, which is in June this year. That gives me just under 3 months per level. I believe this is possible as my reputation has been climbing much faster since HF21/22, thanks to the EIP.

That brings me to the end of another Actifit Report and update. I believe the week has ended on a high. I look forward to next week. I wish all of you a great weekend and an active week ahead.
