Good morning Crickets. Welcome to day number ninety-nine of Operation Achieve Anything. I think today’s post is going to be a real quick one due to the fact that I’m feeling a bit burnt out after staying up pretty late in order to cram in as many hours as I could into a paid gig that landed in my inbox late in the evening. If being a little extra tired wasn’t enough, the assignments that I have to report on for the day don’t have me all that inspired.

Good morning Crickets. Welcome to day number ninety-eight of Operation Achieve Anything. Sorry for the drunken rambling that made up yesterday’s post, it’s been a while since I’ve been actively drunk while writing. Where I used to love to drink while writing, now that I’m down to only binge drinking once or twice a month, I now try to wait until all of my responsibilities for the day are over.

Good morning Crickets. Welcome to day number ninety-seven of Operation Achieve Anything. It’s Saturday early in the AM, I’m still a little drunk from a bender that I started last night a plan to continue as soon as I publish this post. Last night was kind of fun because I was in just the right mood that the liquor allowed me to tap into the old energy that I used to have where I actually felt confident in my wacky approach toward promoting my work which allowed me to have fun on Twitter, acting as if I had already made it.

Good Afternoon Crickets!!! Welcome to day number ninety-six of Operation Achieve Anything. It’s Friday so I plan to put in a little extra work and double down on my efforts to get enough done to take the weekend off, or at least going a bit easier like I’ve started to do towards the end of last month. Granted, there are several daily tasks that are unavoidable but this new trend to take my weekends back has helped me not feel as burnt out as often as I have been in the past, where every day was exactly the same 24/7/365/(366 on Leap Years.)

Good morning Crickets, or should I say good night? It’s technically tomorrow considering the date changed at midnight but I’m also still up from when I originally woke up at six thirty in the AM. I guess it doesn’t really matter since chances are, you won’t be reading this until I’ve already crashed and had already woken again. Who am I kidding? Chances are if you are reading this, it’s off in the distant future and you perusing my work after one of my other projects became a hit. That, or you're not reading this at all since you are a Cricket after all, there to remind me of the noisiness that comes with silence.

Hello, Crickets. Welcome to day number ninety-four of Operation Achieve Anything. Today is the eight and final day of the Achieve Anything... book's success and failure themed set of lessons that highlight how you can't have one without the other. I wish this were true because today has been so filled with failure that I should be a major success by tomorrow morning.

Good morning Crickets!!! Welcome to day number ninety-three of Operation Achieve Anything. Before I get into the assignments that I’m supposed to sharing for today, I would like to add an addendum to the assignment from a couple of days about where the focus was failing forward. As I went to work on yesterday’s task, I failed to get all that far but I failed forward because I didn’t complete the task at hand due to a new work assignment that came in right when I sat down to get to work on yesterday’s assignment, which is great because I could really use another payday real soon.

Hey Crickets!!! Welcome to day number ninety-two of Operation Achieve Anything. I’m surprisingly enthusiastic considering that fact that it’s a Monday, and even more surprisingly, this enthusiasm was actually ignited by the Achieve Anything… book’s eight days of lessons with a common theme of exploring how a key to success is actually how you handle your failures. Usually, these long-running lessons annoy the hell out of me since they can often feel repetitive to the point where I feel like I am simply going through the motions without truly getting involved.

Good afternoon Crickets!!! Welcome to day number ninety-one of Operation Achieve Anything. Not only is this day number ninety-one but today makes this the end of week number thirteen and the start of month number four. All this while today also marks day number six of eight of the Achieve Anything… books success versus failure themed collection of lessons. Since this is a Sunday, and I’ve already covered most of my views on the subject during days one through five, this is probably going to be a quick one, but then again, I never know until I get to the point where I am saying my goodbyes.

Happy Saturday Crickets!!! It’s day number ninety of Operation Achieve Anything and I am finally feeling like I am fully back in my groove. It’s weird how my mood can vary as much as it does, considering how consistent that my life has grown to become. Then again, last month, I was mainly just stressed out over the fact that my paycheck was delayed for almost a month which is extra rough now that I barely make enough to scrape by as it is.

Good morning Crickets. Welcome to day number eighty-eight of Operation Achieve Anything. I am now officially back from my unofficial vacation which I once again managed to seamlessly pull off without falling behind on my work. Well, seamless to any readers who may check in, as for me, I burnt through my surplus of safety-net work and no longer have the comforted of being days ahead of my deadlines for the SNL Challenge that’s my current major project.

Good afternoon Crickets. Welcome to day number eighty-seven of Operation Achieve Anything. This is going to be another rushed post as I wrap up day number three of the closest thing that I’ve had to a vacation in quite a while. I spent the last two nights at my oldest sister’s place and am now home trying to get this over with in order to hang out with the family to round out the rest of the day.

Good afternoon Crickets!!! Welcome to day number eight-six of Operation Achieve Anything. As I warned yesterday, I am currently at my oldest sisters house, enjoying the closest thing that I've had to a vacation in a little while. I am currently working on one of my nephew's computer that has a keyboard that I'm not used to and a standard spell checker so please excuse any extra mistakes that may slip by.

Hey Crickets. How are things going? It’s Sunday making it the not only day number eighty-four of Operation Achieve Anything but it’s also the official end of week number twelve. Though I can be annoyed with this challenge from time to time, I’d say I’m still going strong. I really hope they wrap up all of the self-help-themed tasks pretty soon in order to focus on more external advice on how to literally achieve a goal instead of just getting mentally prepared. Either way, I don’t mind doing the work because at least this challenge makes it easier to create content that isn’t just me rambling on.

Good morning Crickets. Welcome to day number eighty-three of Operation Achieve Anything!!! For those of you reading this in the future, it’s a Saturday so this post might be a little brief because as soon as I’m done with my blogging obligations, I’m going to take a break for the rest of the day. As I said in yesterday’s post, I think I’m going to try and put in a little extra effort during the week in order to take weekends off, or at least make it so that any weekend work is optional.

Good morning Crickets. How are you doing on this fine Friday morning, better known as name number eighty-two of Operation Achieve Anything? Once again, my plans for the weekend have fallen through but as with last week, I think I might take advantage of the extra work that I put in to take the time off and relax over the next couple of days. I’m starting to think that I might start to double down on my efforts a couple of days during each week in order to take weekends off in general, or at least free up the time to start up a weekend project to break up the repetitiveness of my current schedule.

Hey Crickets, how are things going? Welcome to day number seventy-one of Operation Achieve Anything. Sorry but today’s going to be another downer of a post but the good news is, this time, the sorrow being express actually fulfills yesterday’s assignment that asked me to go a little dark. The funny thing is, though my mood might change while sharing my thoughts, I’m feeling better right now than I’ve felt in a while since I finally have my finance sorted out to the point where I’m no longer worried when I’m going to get my next healthy meal after eating nothing but Dollar Tree food for close to a month.

How are things going today Crickets? It’s day number eighty of Operation Achieve Anything, and I’m sorry to say that not much has changed since yesterday, in that, the Achieve Anything… book is still focused on humor and I’m not inspired by either assignment that I’m here to report on. Other than that, I’m actually in a better mood because my EBT card was finally renewed so I don’t have to worry about where I’m going to get food for another six months.
