I need to start to automate um like email outreach funnels and I'm learning that trying to set up but do you have any like any advice on how to better systematize my day I guess cuz I have triplets that are all 3 years old and we adopted a daughter who's 3 years old as well. So my life is crazy. My my side hustle day starts at 7:00 p.m. till [0:29] about 10:00 at night. All right. Here's what I know I Here's what I know you don't have. You haven't designed your perfect week. Okay. Cuz if you did, you wouldn't start a side hustle cuz you would realize you don't have the time to get what you need done in your week. Yeah, it's just like you're going to have to like use the perfect week, look at the open windows, sit down with your wife, negotiate, here's what I'm doing, and then be disciplined in your calendar. Most people don't follow what's in their calendar. Okay? If it's in my calendar, I do it 100% of the time. I don't [1:00] cancel. I don't say If it's If it says wake up at 4:00 in the morning work out, I work out. I don't I don't overthink it. Cuz if I don't do that, then I'm not I'm not I'm not stacking wins. Most people negotiate with themselves in regards to what they do. Okay? So, if you have that, then you get to ask yourself, what's the highest form of leverage? Okay? The highest form of leverage, if you can get any time outside the 9:00 to 5:00, it's to work [1:25] the 5:00 to 9:00. And it's the first 5:00 from 5:00 to 9:00 and 5:00 to 9:00. And that's That's what I tell people to do cuz your whole goal is to get to 60k, 50, 60k a year in the side hustle so you can quit the other one to go all in on the new one because doing that one thing will go you from 50 to 60k a year on the new thing [1:46] to 3, 4, 500,000 a year. Because it's hard to do the strategies in this book in the replacement ladder if you aren't allowed to hire people and you don't have the ability to create pricing power. Right now, you work smarter, better, faster in your current business, you don't get paid more. Like I'm assuming you don't have a income structure with your employer where the more efficient you are the [2:13] more money you make. No, not at Perfect. So then you can't increase the revenue per hour because of that. So then what you got to do is you got to start the side hustle. Then on the side hustle, the only thing you should be doing is marketing and selling. Marketing and selling. Marketing and [2:28] selling. Okay. That's what my my my what I've been working on is sort of a we'll call it a adaptive dad's guide and that's a like a an ebook we'll call it to parents and shares that can possibly So I've been working on that. Is that There's no working on it. Did you sell it? [2:50] I didn't sell it yet, no. That's what I'm saying. You're doing a lot of things, but you're not doing the thing. Okay. The only thing you should be doing and you put it in your calendar tomorrow morning when you wake up before you do your main job is go market and sell that guide. [3:08] Okay. That's it. If you wake up every day to just go try to find pools of community that want the guide to get them to buy the guide and figure out how you do that every day, that has the highest probability of generating 30, 40, 50, 60,000 a year so you can quit your main job. Right? And then you go all in on that and then you use the full buyback principle to be able to buyback your time so you have more time for your [3:32] family. But you're going to have to start with your calendar. Your calendar has to be dedicated and allocated. Okay. Okay? Most people do not grow in their business cuz they don't spend enough time on marketing and sales of their business and they stay stuck at a magical number called 300,000 per a Okay. How do I know? Because I know. And they go, "Well, how do I grow? Every time I grow, it doesn't work." It's cuz you don't do enough marketing and sales, there's no repeatable process, you haven't forced yourself to increase your offer to make the economics of your [4:04] offer work out, and you can't delegate. And because you can't do those two things, you don't have a good marketing and sales system, you don't have a great offer, and you don't know how to delegate, you'll always be stuck at 300k a year. Now, you would be so pumped if you were making 300k a year. But, you're not going to be pumped making 300k a year working 65 hours a week and your wife being mad at you that [4:23] you're never around. Great. And that's what I don't want, so Well, then follow the steps I just outlined. Start off 9:00 to 5:00, work with your wife on the calendar. Here's what I'm trying to do. I'm going to wake up, and I promise you I'm going to do these activities. I'm going to generate revenue. I'm going to report back to you every week. I'm going to let you know [4:39] how many things I did, how many I sold. You're going to see a positive trend line. And you're going to And you just keep You're going to eventually like the the main job goes like this, and then the side hustle goes like that. Real quick, you've made it to the end. Let me tell you what I know about you. You're not somebody that's looking to do shelf help. You're not somebody just doom scrolling on social media.
