burnout wasn’t worth it—so I did this instead
|
Read time: 2 minutes Hey Reader, At age 22, I was working WAY too much — long hours, constant hustle, always feeling like I had to do more just to keep up. But no matter how hard I worked, I wasn’t really making more money. On top of that, I felt like I didn't have enough time for myself and my family. So I asked myself - is it that I'm not working hard enough, or that I'm working on the WRONG things? That's when everything changed. Here's what I had to do differently: ✅ I figured out systems that let me get more done without being glued to my laptop for hours on end. ✅ I started doing deep work each morning, cutting out distractions and focusing only on the things that actually moved the needle. As a result, I was able to do a LOT more in LESS time. ✅ I stopped wasting time on busy work and automated or eliminated anything that didn’t truly matter. And guess what? Now at age 29, I work way less than I used to—but I earn more and have time to actually enjoy my life. Most importantly, I get to spend tons of time with my family and am the healthiest I've ever been. If you're feeling stuck in the work-more-to-earn-more trap, I want to help. If you give me 8 minutes, I'll show you the exact shifts I made to work smarter, not harder. 👉 You can check out the video here. 🎵And if you're curious as to what I listen to when I'm in deep-work-mode, this is my current favorite. Here’s to more freedom, more focus, and fewer long hours, P.S. If you want to earn more income (and time freedom) through YouTube, I'll be opening the next The 5-Hour YouTuber cohort in a few weeks. If you haven't yet, you can get on the waitlist for when the doors open. |

Hey Reader, For years, I cleaned office buildings every night. Not exactly glamorous. But during those long hours, I was fueling my ambition by listening to podcasts, books, and YouTube videos about money. I knew I needed to learn how to make it work for me so it would stop eluding me. Fast forward 5 years: I ended up being a guest on one of the podcasts that I had been listening to when I used to clean. What a surreal, full-circle moment. This whole experience made me realize something...

Read time: 2 min ... Look, I get it. I've been exactly where you are right now. Staring at those view counts, wondering if all this effort is worth it. Maybe you're thinking "This just isn't working" or "I'm not cut out for this." I remember going through a 6-month stretch where every time I would post a video, I'd LOSE subscribers (see below). It made me not want to cut the camera on anymore. This was so discouraging, but I'm glad I hung in there! Let Me Share Something That Changed...
