AMAZING!!

Gary Vee says that you are not really an entrepreneur while you are working another job, because you can’t possibly be focused enough and hustle hard enough. It’s only when you are on the bare bones of your arse that you really feel that push, that pressure, that drive to succeed. It’s because you have no other choice.
I have to say, I agree with him. Some people get off on the idea of spending every waking moment working, but I don’t. It’s pretty simple; I worked the whole burnout lifestyle, pulling bullshit hours. The only place it got me was in an unhealthy mental and physical state, so much so that it affected my productivity in an extremely negative way. So what did I learn from that experience? I need my downtime. I need time to look after myself both mentally and physically. I need time for my creative juices to flow.
As Yoda says, “do, or do not, there is no try”, I have around $6k in the bank right now, to cover my expenses, and that’s it, if I don’t succeed, I would have taken the biggest gamble of my life and lost. If I do, I’ve made the best investment in my future that I could possibly make. Funny that.
Only 31 days
That is until I’m officially unemployed, and completely reliant on myself to generate income, it’s getting crazy real now. While I may have some trepidation, at the same time I’m so excited I can’t contain myself! The next five weeks are going to fly by, so now I have to focus on getting all my loose ends tied off before I leave.
Better get back to work then!
