Things are busy, but fun.
I’m actually having a lot of fun with how busy things are. I think it’s a really fun time across all of my businesses and work right now.
I have my day two, one consulting project that is full time, and I think I sold that project from Friday that will be another full-time project. Throw in real estate time as a quarter of a full-time job right now and I’m up to 3.25 full-time jobs.
How fun is that??
And while I’m having fun with this now while I’m in my mid-20’s, I know energy levels will eventually deplete and I won’t have fun with this anymore.
With that in mind, it’s time to start looking forward.
I have my plans to start and grow my own business in 2021. I’ll probably spend the better part of three years building that into a multi-million dollar a year business and then automating/hiring myself out of a job.
Then, I’ll be bored. So, I’ll want to start acquiring businesses.
With that in mind, I’m starting to sign up for different business for sale listings to start understanding what is for sale on the market.
I won’t buy anything for a few years.
But, better to get started looking now than later, right?
Yesterday there were 1,542 days until I turn 30 and need to make $10K a day passively. Here’s how I spent it in pursuit of that goal
The current phase of the plan
I’m in Phase #3: The Business Phase. You can read more about the phases and my plan to get to $10K/a day at 30 here.
I still consult, and I still have a job. I’m looking forward to removing both of those ASAP.
Wake up & sleep:
I got a total of 7 hours and 19 minutes of sleep but broken up in 4 different chunks because of the baby. Overall, that amount of sleep was definitely a positive because I ended with a recovery score of 47%.
Not too bad for a young baby at home!
Exercise
I took an hour-long Peloton class to help get the juices flowing from a strength perspective. Overall, wasn’t too bad at all and was pretty exciting to have a good workout like that. Keep it going.
Stress levels
Weekend so nothing
Diet
Diet was coffee, and then noodles and a protein shake. Not bad, pretty vegan.
My Day Job

Investment real estate
Confirming the dates of inspection for our 49 units under contract.
