This is what I found this morning

Non-members can read here.

Yesterday, I was on a family trip, and I wasn’t active on Medium. Though I tried to engage but beautiful scenes of nature didn’t allow me to do so. Moreover, it’s important to take healthy breaks from life and spend quality time with family.

At night, when I reached home, I was too tired to check my mobile phone. I went straight to bed for sleep. This morning, when I woke up, I saw a pop-up notification from Medium that my partner program earnings have been sent.

It was a surprise for me because it’s my 4th payout from medium and none other came before 10th of each month. In fact, last month everyone experienced a delayed payout, and I received it on 14th November.

The early payout was such a delight for me because my favorite clothing brand has announced a sale, and I have eyes on many products. My mind immediately started to prepare a list of items to buy.

I rushed to medium app to check my stats and notifications. I got a shockwave when I checked my stats, and I hope you’ll also get a serious anxiety attack after watching this screenshot of my stats.
