Welcome to the 68th weekly installment of my series on Steem income and growth!
Income on the Steem blockchain is generated by "investment" (the more currency you have, the more you earn) and by "work" (earning currency by contributing content that adds value). All my crypto holdings are in the Steem currency. Now I'm working to earn more, by uploading unique valuable content to the blockchain.

Considering income from accounts that I own, that my wife owns, and group projects using our funds (currently

After about a month of not being able to put as much time into Steem as we'd like, @MediKatie and I have finished our move (out of Vancouver), and are settling into the new place and new routines.
Our growth picked up a bit this week as we've returned to regular posting, commenting, and curating. Back to over 1%, this week. Our 10-week running average has dipped slightly below 1% growth.
As I mentioned in my post last week (#67), I was accepted as a content-creator at 3Speak. I uploaded my first video 2 days ago, and it got $70 USD in upvotes! That will surely help the numbers next week, after it pays out.
Also, I reached 61 rep this week. It's funny that when I hit 50, it seemed like such a milestone. Now they just slowly tick by. Maybe I'll get excited at 70. :)
If my team's funds were in a single account, it would be the 5212th richest. We're moving up slowly but steadily against the rest of the pack. It would be nice to crack the top 5000, and then move higher from there. It's not a competition, and I don't feel competitive. It's good to have goals, and keep it fun and motivating.
Have a great week. May your profession be your passion, and your passion your mission, and your mission your vocation, and your vocation your profession. May the things you're good at doing also be the things you love to do, and may they also be things the world needs, and things you can pay the bills with, so you can continue to live your purpose.
