Hi, it looks like you're new here. If you like what you see, you can sign up for free blog updates right here. Enjoy!
Ever read a book that makes you want to quit your job, move to another country and take up photography? Yea, you know the type. Take Eat, Love, Pray as an example. Elizabeth got so bored of her own life that she divorced her husband and took off on a life changing trip around the world. That might be going a little overboard but there’s nothing wrong with re-designing your life.
Here’s what this new book I’m reading made me realize; I work too damn much! And I’m pretty sure I’m not alone…right?? I work a full-time job which takes care of 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Then I come home and work on my jewelry business the rest of the night. Doesn’t that sound like more work than it’s worth?
The idea of “The 4-Hour Work Week” is to find a way to work more effectively so you can optimize your lifestyle to include hobbies, fun and even mini-retirements.
What do we all work so hard for? What’s the ultimate goal anyway? It’s not about making money. It’s about what you want to do with that money. So if you had the right amount of money, what would you do with your life? And if that question is too extreme for you, at least tell me what you would do next weekend?
5 things I would LOVE to do this year:
- Take snowboarding lessons
- Go on a road trip along the California Coast
- Perfect my writing skills
- Get healthy & fit while still eating chocolate
- Find a way to make more money in less time (I’ll let you know how it goes)
What’s on your wish list? How do you plan on making it happen?
