229b. It’s Time To Leave My Comfort Zone… Again…

💎🔴🔵6:31pm, Tuesday, June 4th, 2024, Office, UT
 
This episode has the potential to go down in history as a hugely referenced show in the future. But it all depends on the actions I take from here moving forward.
 
The thought process started when I came to the conclusion that I am running out of time to trade for money. And that I in fact cannot afford to buy any more of my time back at this point in my life without putting other goals on hold.
 
Seeing things in the reverse perspective of affordability is a great way to shift the frame of mind in which you approach the issue. For example: If someone makes $50k/yr, they are paying $950,000/yr to remain ignorant on how to generate an extra $80k/mo. Again, got the concept from Alex Hormozi. Which has helped me reframe my decisions.
 
I can get a 4th job and work weekdays after my full time job, but this comes with a massive expense of 0 free time after work to work on my shit. Is that worth it? No. So what is the alternative? I need to man up and get out there again with all this new found confidence and discipline I have and make something of it instead of finding better ways to trade my time for an hourly wage. To say 6 hours of my only free time in my day is worth $120 is massively disrespectful to myself. “There has to be a better way” is a phrase I often say to myself at least a dozen times a week. 
 
This is one of them.
 
Long story short, I may start up my Personal Training business again despite exactly wanting to. But this grants all my wishes. It gets me the opportunities to further build, create, and develop a business. It gets me people experience, sales experience, communication, ads, marketing, etc., which is exactly what I’ve been applying for (maybe 3 total jobs, but still) to trade my money for learning. But even then, it’s trading my time for less money, which is what I need to advance my other goals. In this scenario, money is a tool. And I do not possess much of this tool. This tool will advance me more quickly and further than not having it. So, how can I generate more?
 
By making an offer so good people feel stupid saying no. Alex Hormozi cheat codes activated. $100M Offers round 2!
 
We’ll see what happens.

229. It’s Good That It’s Hard, Progress, Updates

🔴🟢🔵 6:17pm, Tuesday, June 4th, 2024, Office, UT
 
I had a ton of thoughts on my way home from work today. One of them being the fact that I simply won’t have “days off” for years. I say that now with every other Sunday as a day off work, but as far as working on my own goals and entrepreneurial endeavors, that never takes a break for me personally. 
 
I got thinking about all the things I'm “missing.” And I say that in quotes because I’m not sure I’m really missing anything. It’s just the perception. But what helps me get out of that would-be-spiral is the thought that one day I’ll be able to tell this story of how I worked every day and never had a day off. I was always gunning toward something in some regard. And how grandiloquent (fancy talk for really cool) the story will be.
 
Also, if it were easy, simple, and cheap, it would not be worth pursuing. That means it’s available to all, and anyone can have it. The value in that drops immensely. So the very fact that it is hard makes it worth it altogether to pursue. This is a thought from Alex Hormozi and so valuable.
 
Mini Updates:
3rd revision of the pre workout is on its way. Tomorrow I should have an official taste test.
Ep 229b. has the potential to be one of the most valuable shows to date depending on my actions moving forward. Cool to think.
Cool to see the progress made in the confidence I have with podcasting and speaking.
Life rocks. But I’m only able to say that because I weathered the storm of shit days. Still winning.

228. The Sad Episode

🟣🟢 8:29pm, Monday, June 3rd, 2024, Office, UT
 
It seems like the more times I go out and have a "normal life", the more times I return home very sad. But that only happens once, and that's the initial arrival. After that I'm golden and back on my bullshit. But I wonder why that is.
 
One day, I'll look back at all these hard days, stressful nights, frustrating mornings, lonely years, and say "I am so glad I never gave up." Because that day will come and it will happen.
 
This episode is for the sad guys out there. You're not alone. You just have to keep going. The light at the end of the tunnel never gets any closer by sitting there and waiting; keep moving. There's an episode here for you every single day from now forward. We got this shit together.

Well, I didn't quit. Another W. Sloppy plays can still score points. You don't have to be proud, you just have to be grateful.

227. Meal Prep Service - CHECK

🔵 10:40pm, Sunday, June 2nd, 2024, Kitchen, UT
 
I was cutting potatoes, absolutely dreading the next few hours of meal prep, when I decided to grab my laptop and do a little digging around to find some sort of affordable meal prep company. I didn’t think twice after I made it make sense financially. I made an order, and I would like to think that this is the last time I’ll ever meal prep in my life.
 
I don’t like meal prepping or cooking food in bulk. I’m good. I’d rather starve. So… I invested into a meal prep company.
 
Here’s some math:
If my time is worth $32/hr on average between my 3 jobs, and it takes me 5 hours to meal prep per week, that’s $160 in time that it takes me. Multiply that by 4 for the month and you get $640. I’m spending $640 worth of my time to get food bought and prepared.
 
Now with this meal prep company and the odds and end groceries per week, it will be approximately $135/wk. But… I get 5 hours a week back. So I’m buying back $640 worth of my time with $140 per month (because I budget $100/wk on groceries).
 
So, for $140 a month, I now have 20 more hours to work on building my shit. Hell yes.

226. Ghost Caught Live, Shite Day, No Stimulus

🟢 11:03pm, Saturday, June 1st, 2024, Office, UT
 
Caught a damn ghost live on recording. My FINGER ACTIVATED lamp turned off. Didn't burn out. SICK.
 
Had one hell of a day, but it quickly turned around when I just set aside all stimuli and focused on what was in front of me. That really helped. All night long I just was present with the moment of what I was doing, and I feel great mentally. Took some time for myself tonight. Only a couple hours but I think it was enough to give me the rejuvenation I needed.
 
Also talked with some random stranger about getting a weekend sales job for the sake of learning. We'll see how it goes. ZS.

225. I Hit 1K Stream, Gaining Traction Again, Software Companies Need To Be Better, Mic Check

💎🔴🔵 10:08pm, Friday, May 31st, 2024, Office, UT
 
1,000 downloads was achieved today. Bad ass. My first comma in the podcasting realm. Very cool. I forecasted my approximate streams in the future based on the growth of the last few months, and it pumped out some numbers on when I'd hit certain milestones. You can listen at the end of those, but the main one I want to pay attention to now is the 10,000 milestone that I'll hit during May of 2025. So 11 months from now. I've gotten 500 downloads this month alone, so, we'll see what happens.
 
Disclaimer: Whether or not I get 10k streams or only ever 21 again from Uncle Bobby, I'm still doing 7305.
 
Gained some traction again today. Messing around with softwares (that seemingly ALWAYS never get it right) to see if my vision can be met. I found something that looks promising so we'll see if it lives up to the hype as I hope it does. Software companies really gotta be better man. Meet with the people using the software. Run a whole day with them. Even a week. See how the people you're making the software for will actually use it. Remove your ego from it. Change everything that the workers need to be changed. It's the only real way to make an efficient and desirable software. If I knew software I'd put Elon out of a job (jokes, for the dense ones).
 
Mic check 1, 2. Proving again that closet audio is better than almost everything else. I mean listen to the difference. Remarkable.

224. No Idea What To Do & Embarrassed About It

🔵🥴 8:12pm, Thursday, May 30th, 2024, Office, UT
 
Alright, so... We got:
No idea what to do. Truly embarrassed to say that, but I'm keeping it real.
Forgot how the goddamn solar system works LOL.
Weeks and months and all that shit are made up forms of measurements. The 1st of the month and Monday's are no different than Wednesdays and 25th of the month.
Brainstorming social media content ideas.
Shared info on YNN and how I plan to repurpose that to social media.
All I got in memory and I JUST recorded this.

223. They Sent My Samples To Wrong Address

🔴 8:16pm, Wednesday, May 29th, 2024, Office, UT
 
Sweet.
 
Days like today are the hardest for me because I feel like I wasted it. For this, that, or another reason, it doesn't matter. I didn't move forward in my eyes today. And that sucks.
 
Something I try to remember and think about is the fact that it's all a roller coaster. You have to have highs to have lows and vis versa. So while this may have been a terrible day, it's just a reminder for me that if I want better days I need to have better preparation and focus. My exhaustion could've been avoided or at least lessened had I gone to bed when Iw as supposed to.
 
Which makes me believe that another major key to my success in this phase of life is to get adequate amounts of sleep every night. Meaning the absolute bare minimum moving forward has to be 7. Absolutely nothing less. Lately it's been 5.5-6. And I'm paying for it.
