I made my first Merch sale!!!!

I just thought this was a pretty cool thing to point out. The founder of Skool, Sam Ovens, is very active inside of Skool. He puts a lot of effort and time into the things that improve this platform. It took him years building Skool to get it where it is today. I have a goal to build something real and lasting here as well. I also try to put a lot of effort into building relationships and helping people. I'm not saying this to toot my own horn in any way. I just think it's encouraging to be "seen" by the founder. I know it will take a while. I know it will come with a cost. Eventually, it will happen. 2026 is going to be a big year. If you're encouraged or motivated to do big things in this coming year. I want to hear about it below!

This week I earned $441.49 here + about $100 on Shipt, bringing my total to around $541 in one week. I put in about 30 hours of work, which averages out to roughly $18/hour — and I did it all on my own schedule. 💪🚗 There were long days, tired moments, and times I could’ve stayed home… but I showed up anyway. And this right here is why consistency matters. It may not be overnight success, but it is real progress, real growth, and real proof that hard work pays off. I’m also being super intentional with this win — I’m taking these earnings and putting them straight into a high-yield savings account so my money can start making more money for me. 💰✨ Building smarter, not just harder. I’m not sharing to brag — I’m sharing to remind someone who feels stuck or discouraged that your efforts are not wasted. Keep going. Even slow progress is still progress. 🙏✨

OK so I didn’t brick it. I did however, download a minimalist app to have way less distraction. I can already tell that it’s working. I never knew how overwhelmed I felt just looking at my home screen. Now when I look at my home screen, and I don’t see all of the red dots and colorful apps I feel a little more at peace. I actually forget that someone texted me. Lol.
