165 Days Before College

Hello 👋 

 

didn't realize it's been over a month since I was here ⛺

so I prepared for black Friday very well this year. I was both anxious and excited. The black Friday came here on 7th of November and started horrible. The marketplace had a lot of bugs and our super hot products didn't even show half the day. Glad we had a second account and sold from that one instead. That worked very well. We had around 400 orders, last year it was 120.

I was on the platform all day unlike last year being employed. I felt great that I was finally able to give it all instead of trying to perform at 2 jobs. Last year at work I felt so stupid because I didn't have many e-commerce clients and none did black Friday.

My colleagues talked all day about their clients and I didn't have what to say. I was just pretending to work. It was a day like any other. I felt dumb for not being able to excel at my job and having to feel so small around my office. But this year I gave it all and it showed. We had over 3000 orders in November. Finally I job I am doing great.

 

We also sold a lot of products from a friend. We got some money from. there as well. That was nice. 

 

I invested 10.000 euros last year and now I am going to take the last 4000 euros. Cool. If I was alone in the business I would have reinvested once again. 

 

I had some discussions with my siblings for not being as driven as me. I didn't find a solution. 

 

My siblings criticize me for hitting the gym , working hard and trying to eat clean. They say I'm not living my life etc. My brother says that but I don't look up at him so I don't take his advice. 

 

I had a few moments thinking damn, I'm really doing this full time now. it's been almost 6 months and Iove my life now. I was really frustrated being employed. 

 

i used to run on the trademil 20 min after working out but I took a break for over a month because of knee pain. unfortunately it was too much 

 

I didn't manage to finish a book last month because poor scheduling. but I finished this month. I start reading the book mentats of dune, after I read sisterhood of dune.

 

met with friends twice. it was fun. one friend reached out to speak with me 1-1 . he was going through some rough stuff. I helped him but I felt embarrassed that he confessed to me. He started therapy and it's doing better 

 

drove a few times. sometimes it was horrible other times it was better.

 

I am still wondering what my ex work colleagues would say about my leap of faith to focus on my business full time. But I thought about it and there was no other way out. I was going mad being employed and working for them. I wanted to do my own thing 

 

I am still struggling with going to bed on a decent time and also with porn and flapping. I hate it but I do it daily.

I also feel immense guilt for not actually studying for my Spanish classes. I don't know if I mentioned but I started them for some time . I m not making progress because I'm not doing my homework or practicing. I feel like I'm highschool. my parents paid tutors and I didn't actually study hard as fuck. I would rather work than study 

the whole excitement disappear after I got my first homework

what's up 🍺

 

so I was looking back on this year and thought things aren't going great ;)))))

that's quit the opposite. I changed my life 365 because I had the courage to quit my agency jobs. Especially the first one. 

it's been 6 months since I quit my last job. my business is doing great 😃. It was so hard to quit. I can't believe I'm actually doing my business full time. that's next level bro!

 

I finally started hitting the gym, next year in February I will celebrate a full year. it was so hard to even go there.

 

my diet is better than ever!

 

Spanish is going better!

 

sleeping isn't going so well ;( I still struggling with this. I made it my top priority next year 

 

I got the last money I Invested in my business last year. from next month we can pay ourselves. amazing!

 

I finished 2 books this month: the sisterhood of dune and mentats of dune. that's 13 books read this year. It felt forced at times. i didn't want to read that much monthly. It's just fun but I think I should have read some self help books.

also, I should work during chunks of time instead of watching SMTH while doing it. it hurts my focus. also. I am forced to finish stuff instead of working all day and checking wapp, insta etc.

 

I want to finish the heroic book and get the app all as well. I need their structure 

I have to take sleep seriously. it seems that it's the hardest challenge so far haha 

 

I told merry Christmas to some of my old colleagues. they all told me I have you are well haha. maybe they think I'm doing really bad because they don't know I'm doing my business full time now 😂 😂 😂 I still feel anxious to tell them about it 

 

I can't believe how much progress I made since last year. it's fucking great 😃 👍 next year will be even better 

 

we made an Maritime important with my friend who got a whole container. I felt inspired and also envious for him making do much money. I need to step up my game 🎯 I need to work more efficiently. ideally doing at least 60 minutes of hard work each morning. I want to do the things that make us more money daily, not every few days 

 

I was thinking 🤔 what my goals should be for next year 

go to bed at 9-23 ( hardest thing)

drive weekly

work 8-10h daily for work, I would like to wake up at 4 am 

3 times a week gym + trainer 

finish heroic book, heroic app daily, heroic course 

do Spanish weekly and spend at least 2 h learning 

quit porn, tv series recap and social media. these things drag me down 👇

 

 

so I noticed that I'm spending again lots of time on Instagram. I hate it. I was thinking to quit for a whole year or to just use it once a month. feels right. 

 

how about dating? I still would like to not date next year. I'm extremely proud of my progress overall. I still dont have my own place. I would rather pay for gym and my trainer than to rent a studio. I would like also so grow my business more so that I am not living off savings like now.

 

I was thinking 🤔 to borrow some money, maybe from the bank 🏦 so we grow faster. I dream about getting my own full container as well 

my friend wants to collaborate next year. I'm looking forward for that we will sell the products he's making on the marketplace 

 

I got some money from a dude by doing his marketplace ads. I am shocked how slow 🦥 he's moving with his business even if he started 10 years ago. unreal. I thought that we moved slow (ex not selling electronics until now) but he is far worse. basically I'm selling more than him and just started 

 

I am looking forward to work in the morning and really grow better and faster. I'm extremely hungry. I feel envy on all these people making more than us. I will get better products as well.

 

I found myself very triggered by my sister's husband's opinions about our business. I want to prove him we can do better. I hate that he's not thinking all my effort as worthwhile 

 

I got upset on my siblings for not working more and I would like to get more of the profits in the future since I work so hard. my brother doesn't want to work more because he's not getting paid but I really don't understand him. if he's working now we will make money faster. it doesn't really make sense 

I've been overthinking for maybe a year of having this discussion with them. I am worried about how they'll react when I tell them I want to get more money in the future. I'm thinking they they'll refuse, especially my brother
