$KYLE is a pocket accountability system I developed to manufacture a voice of accountability and track, measure, and improve on different areas of my life.

Pillars

Each week, I score my output on 6 different pillars:

  • Career
  • Health
  • Twitter
  • Investing
  • LinkedIn
  • Publishing

*listed in the order they were added

**Metrics in each pillar can be modified at any time to better align with my goals.

***Explanations of each category + metric will be published on 12Thirty1, I just don’t know when I’m going to do that yet. 🙂

📈 Power Score Update

This Week’s Total Power Score: 154.65 — 🥴

Last Week’s Total Power Score: 183.21

🔴 Weekly Growth: -15.59%

📝 Overall, I’m not too upset. It’s a hefty decline, but I had to put the brakes on in the Career pillar this last week. We changed up some things we’re doing for our email outreach/prospecting and needed to stop what I was doing midweek last week. Less prospecting emails going out = a lower Career score for the week. Unless I want to have a lower Career score again this week, I’ll need to figure out how I’m going to score this going forward.

I’ll be modifying which metrics to score going forward, but I need to do that sooner rather than later or else my Career pillar is going to get whacked again. 😅

Movement:

*(this / last)

🟢 Gainers:

  • Health (46.11 / 37.10)
  • Investing (15 / 14)
  • LinkedIn (8.651 / 8.638)
  • Publishing (14.76 / 8.03)

🔴 Losers:

  • Career (51.5 / 96.9)
  • Twitter (18 / 19)

◻️ Stayed the same:

  • None

📝 Twitter + LinkedIn really should be combined into one pillar because I’ll likely be adding Facebook to this soon. Wasting a bit of time trying to track each individual social platform right now. All 3 of those will be combined into one pillar: Social.

Investing is up this week because I stimulated my Roth IRA with $500 more — would have been a Loser otherwise.

Publishing — I published a couple of my articles that were sitting in my Medium drafts. Nothing juicy… just talking about People-Based Marketing and Identity Graphs. BUT, these are articles that had been sitting in there for months. I never had a push to publish until I noticed I needed a bit of help for my Weekly Score. Again, can already tell this is helping me. 😇

Chart

Need to make this chart look a bit more bullish

➡️ Going forward:

📝 Today is the last day in Key Largo before we head up to Fort Lauderdale for the night. After that, it’s about a week in Tampa. We still have another week before we’re back in North Carolina, and it’ll be more of a struggle to reach my Health goal without my friends here to play volleyball. ☹️

Overall, I’m actually getting more and more excited about this tracking/scoring system. I know what I need to get done each week but without a way to measure/track it, I’ll never know if/when I’m improving (or losing).
