Monday Blues?
Hell no.
If you’re NOT looking forward to Monday, then let’s change that.
Back in the day when I held soul sucking jobs, I hated Mondays.
As the weekend drew to an end on Sunday night, I was filled with absolute total dread.
Then I MADE a change.
I looked into work that I could do… that would free up my Mondays… to focus on building the playboy lifestyle I so desired.
I discovered VIP Hosting and Promoting and the rest is history.
Not only was I still partying on the weekends, but I was getting PAID to do so.
I had found the perfect job…
…for a period of time.
Then I desired new change.
So I built up my Black Book of VIP clients and branched off on my own.
Now I only host when a VIP client wants to party, thus giving me control of my business and even more flexibility in my schedule.
From there I invested into other businesses and find myself busy with those, however, it’s STILL being my own boss.
While working for yourself may NOT be for every man, and there is some very good jobs to be had working for a company, one should examine their personal traits and see what works for them the best.
For myself I found that I don’t like having a boss.
Even though clients and customers are still my ‘boss’, it’s an entirely different dynamic taking the reigns and either falling on my face or building something great.
I like challenges and I love risk.
Without those, I would wither into being static and complacent.
Take some time to REALLY see what you desire in your life.
Are you more of a risk-taker, or do you like to play it safe? (There’s no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answer)
Are you headed in the right direction with your career, or are you simply stagnating?
Is it time for you to switch jobs, careers, or even strike out on your own?
Only YOU can answer these questions, but give yourself some free time to REALLY examine your life and see where you’re currently at.
One tip is that I do this WEEKLY.
Yep, every Sunday I’ll take inventory of the past week and plan for the upcoming week and see if I’m on point.
If I’m slipping, I’ll ‘punish’ myself by working even more hours everyday, including Saturday.
This motivates me to work hard during the week and to NOT ever slack off, so I have an actual weekend.
Although you and I aren’t famous, this lifestyle is certainly attainable through hard work, sacrifice and making smart business decisions.
Until next time.
Your man,
