Habits that impact my contributions points

[BudiFXW]

The frequent asking questions that I received latest is how you collect your contribution points, how you get your level 10, It surprising me to, so I think the root cause is my daily habits, so I make a list of my habits that significantly raising my Local Guide contributions point.     

Habit # 1. Google Calendar Planning.

I do weekly planning,  long before using six holes  11cm x 16.5 cm paper based organizer.

Now I migrate to Google Calendar.

I do weekly planning for unroutine activities / tasks and put Google Maps location.  Planning about Quality Management System in a factory.

Location of the factory.

2. Adding places in my timeline of Google Maps when I stay in a location.

I will be happy if I had green checked mark. But sometimes the green check mark doesn’t appear.

3. Reviewing on the location

   Do reviewing while have time, traffic jam . Waiting in the train station, Commuter line stop due queuing in side the train        station.

4. Taking photos on the location

 My timeline with some locations

My upcoming places.

My visited places.

Checking the facts.

Places that needed to be checked.

Pop up places need to be review and rate.

Number of My Contributions.

5. Checking the facts

    Special for category and English translation.

Note :

This topic planned to be shared at the first aniversary of Jakarta Local Guides.

You are my real pals @RahmatHarmanP. I do not do editing and adding places for about six months. I got a traumatic experienced. When I do editing and adding places in the actual.places but be rejected. And the silly kne is I do it several time and ... I lost my level and can not access Local Guides Connect. 

I need several weeks to recovery it by sending several emails.

The level is back.

My point is back

My Local Guides Connect is back.

... but I still dont have courage to do editing and adding places.

Kind regards.

Hope you will get your path to helps others by rising the acuracy of Google Maps.

By the way I found another level 10 from Indonesia. Live in Purwokerto. Me and @AgoesSantosa agree that this man is avery very humble man. He just keep contribute and doesn"t care about points and level.

Hope I will met him and learn something from him.

[BudiFXW]

Thank you @RahmatHarmanP for your support.

Today I got my courage back by doing an edit.

The result is much much better. Got an email and the status is pending.

Email from Google that my edit being reviewed

The status of edited is Pending not rejected directly.

Very inspiring and detailed information.

Thank you for sharing with us. 

Plan your day, organize your daily activities is very good for people who like travel and go to new places. Instantly they will take photos and review that new place.

But for people who always go to the same place every day. 

IMHO. Maybe they will be discouraged.

Because that daily schedule point to the same location every day. You just can not take picture and review the same place over and over again, right?

LoL

It's just my opinion. That's what I felt, when I tried to schedule my daily routine.

Oh so boring. Keep coming to the same place.

Later on, I use your method on weekends. I plan my visit around my neighborhood. For example this weekend my goal is visiting bakery and pastry shops around my neighborhood.

But still got failed when I use the location  on calendar. Turn out. I realize that I don't use Google calendar. I use calendar installed on my mobile phone. Hahahaha...
