Truth is I’m tired…
I’ve been hustling at my job for 13 years. Burning up in the summer. Freezing in the winter.
Boss waking me up in the middle of the night for another emergency.
I’m over it.
One thing my job taught me is how to work hard.
And I carried that into my online business.
What hard work looked like for me online was more clients.
More calls.
More income streams.
More late nights after my 9 to 5.
Waking up at 5am to work on client projects before my day job.
Coming home, eating dinner, getting back to building “freedom”
Never taking weekends off because I had to catch up.
A real hustle.
And you know what I had to show for it?
Burnout.
A few extra thousand in the bank.
And zero freedom.
I was exhausted.
My boss still controlled my weekdays.
My clients controlled my nights and weekends.
The freedom I was sold on? I wasn’t building that at all.
I was building multiple prisons.
I didn’t even realize how bad it was until my son’s first birthday.
The entire day I was distracted.
Because I had a sales call scheduled with Mindvalley at 1 AM (Different time zones).
That was the only time that worked for them. So I said yes.
So while my son smashed his birthday cake I was in my head rehearsing my pitch worried about the call.
I wasn’t giving him my full attention.
I was thinking about a client on the other side of the world.
That night, after everyone went to bed, I stayed up and jumped on the call at 1 AM.
I told them all about it.
They were not impressed.
I finally realized after the call I’m not chasing freedom. This is a different kind of prison.
That moment broke something in me.
Right when I was ready to quit everything, I stumbled across someone who showed me there’s a different way.
A way where you work less but make more.
Where you choose who gets to work with you instead of begging for clients.
Where you can generate $5k, $10k, even $25k+ paydays without adding more hours to your week.
I’m doing it right now… even though I’m just a burned out regular dude with a wife and 2 young kids.
And in 5 months, at 32 years old, I’m walking away from the 2am phone calls, the office politics, and being told when I’m allowed to eat…
For good.
Stay tuned…
