Disabled Entrepreneur - A Typical Day
Most days start the same way. Flat on my back, waiting. Not because Iβm lazy, not because I want to, but because I have to. The first few hours of my morning are usually spent justβ¦ surviving. Letting the worst edge of the pain fade enough to move. Once I can, itβs off to the bathroom β heating up my hands, taking my meds, and trying to coax my body into βgo mode.β Then itβs breakfast and coffee (both essential). By the time Iβm ready to actually start my day, itβs often already noon. Thatβs when I have to decide: π Is this a day I can move and do some farm or house chores? π Or is it a sitting/laying down kind of day - focusing on IT work to pay bills, or building my music and education business through the smallest doable tasks? Every day looks different, but the goal is always the same - lay another brick. Add some value. Move things forward, even if itβs just an inch. By dinnertime, Iβm usually spent. The rest of the evening I spend next to my wife, talking, working lightly on my laptop, or just being present. Itβs also why you donβt see a lot of video content from me. Sitting, standing, or moving too long comes at a cost.. but writing? Writing I can do. Writing is how I show up, even when my body says no. Some days I get frustrated. The pain, the fatigue, the feeling of falling behindβ¦ it can be heavy. But I keep reminding myself: > Progress doesnβt need to be fast to be meaningful. Even if itβs slow, it still counts. Even if it hurts, it still matters. Iβm building something that fits my body, not fighting against it. And I truly believe itβs possible to create a flexible, fulfilling business that adapts to you - not the other way around. If youβre out there trying to build through pain, limitation, or burnout.. I see you. Keep laying those bricks. One at a time. Itβs all adding up. Being able to show up, is a win πͺ
