Stream More... Yup, Stream more

Description
Have no desire to be a full time streamer, but would like to use streaming as a creative outlet and a good means of practicing public speaking. So, I want to set a streaming schedule, and adhere to it as not only a fun activity, but useful skill practice.
Recent Updates
Am streaming on the regular (once a week) and have continued to enjoy myself. Ongoing practice for vocalizing my thoughts in real time as well as getting my ums and ahs down. Will come up with another goal related to this later, but for right now, continue to practice the basics and hopefully perform well at a couple upcoming speedrunning marathons. Cheers!
Was a week off in my planning, aw well. Been happily recording content and torturing myself by listening to it. Something about hearing your own voice recorded and played back to you, just ugh. That aside, streaming is happening and I think my ability to talk as I play is increasing. Still have a ways to go, but practice makes perfect. Planning on doing a blind play through of something this weekend which will be a new adventure for me. I normally just stream my speedruns which means I know what’s happening and when and whether something is good or not. No such crutches for a blind play, so it will be an experience.
So, schedule was set and posted on my twitch page. Going to be hard to maintain in the immediate future due to being accepted to a local speedrun showcase. Though this weekend (2/22) will still be available. As anticipated, didn’t do any during the move, because well… moving. So week 2 was shot. So week 3 goals, now that I know I made it into both marathons (2 weeks and other not till May), I will be working on my times and my commentary for Baldur’s Gate.
Estimated Timeframe
Jan 29th - Feb 28th
Week 1 Goal
Set a schedule. Only aiming for once or twice a week. Will start with one, likely Saturday morning to afternoons.
Week 2 Goal
Hopefully internet is up and running. I moved this week, so crossing fingers the ISP’s are able to move quickly enough. Failing that, record a video and review it for content.
Week 3 Goal
Stick to the schedule. Should know by this point if I made it to a marathon or two, in which case the stream will be about Baldur’s Gate. Otherwise, options are open.
Week 4 Goal
Again, stick to the schedule. Prepare some content about DnD early in the week, something about being a first time GM, collection of resources and general advice. Then probably some gaming too. Either BG speedruns or maybe something casual.
